So your saying for example if your taking 24 mgs of suboxone 1 30mg tylenol3 will not effect you? I have bad injury and have been taking suboxone for 2 years. Was given t3 for pain and the severe pain went away.

Screw methadone, it's the devil in disguise. If you are serious about not using, then continue taking the subs. However, you come across as someone who may not be through yet. In any event good luck!

Wait as long as u possibly can to take subs after the morphine. Wait till u are in worst stages of withdrawal or u will regret it! I took subaxone to early after taking only 30 mg of oxi and I was admitted into hospital and the doctor induced me into a coma for 7 days because precipitated withdrawal was so bad. HUGE MISTAKE the withdrawl I was experiencing before the subaxone was nothing compared to the withdrawl after taking the subaxone. Please be careful I know it blows feel like your gonna die I been there but the transition over to subs is tricky

Opiates are just one class of drugs that are considered narcotics. There are many narcotics that you can take with suboxone safely, but opiates are not to be mixed with suboxone or subutex. You either won’t get any effect at all or will get precipitated withdrawals. The Dr. can tell you which narcotics are safe and the doses.

Actually.. I am on Suboxone (just switched to Subutex) and the Naloxone present in Suboxone does not stop other Opiates from not bonding to the Opiate receptors. People who want abuse Suboxone can also do that regardless of the Naloxone because the Suboxone (although most people don't realize) is a very potent chemical. 2mg of Suboxone is equivalent of 80mg Morphine. I an thankfully reducing and gotten to 0.8mg (30mg Morphine approx.) Will be off soon fingers crossed. so from personal experience don't believe everything doctors and pharmaceutical companies tell you. They just want to get your money and hand you pills which often have worst outcomes than previous. Are the benefits of the medication better than the negative effects of the problem? If not then there is no reason to take the medication. I have been on Opiates all together for a year and a half. Acetyl-Fentanyl, Morphine, Codeine, Oxy etc. Been on Suboxone / Subutex for the last 6 months. Slowly reducing.

I'm reading these posts and replies and I am honestly blown away. I am a former opiate addict and am on Suboxone 8/2 strips twice daily. I find this medication a miracle med. I have no cravings, wants or desires to use. At the same time, I suffer from migraine headaches. Trying to find something that I can take to relieve the pain of the migraine. I have taken fiorecet (w/o codeine) in the past and it works well. I don't want to feel high, I want to alleviate the pain. My question that brought me to this site was and still is "can you take fiorecet with codeine and suboxone together?". I'm concerned about the codeine. Will it make me sick? My issue is that the doctor wrote me that instead of the other fiorecet (w/ butalbital) and I have no idea what that will do to me. No, I don't want to "feel' the codeine, I want to alleviate the headache. Any chance that anyone knows? Thanks!!!

I've been taking 2 thin films of suboxone 8/2 (2mg nalaxone) for 2 years. Rotatorcuff Surgery 2 days ago. I had 2 full thicknes tears on 2 tendons and doctor put me on 20mg oxycodone/ 30 m acetaminophen 5 days prior to surgery, after 48 hrs not taking suboxone, and after surgery the surgeon prescribed acetaminophen/30 codeine. I took that for 2 days and will have 10 pills leftover. The pain was bad but getting tolerable. My suboxone doctor said to get back on suboxone the following day. I took 2 8\2 mg of suboxone about 3 hours ago with last dose of codiene about 9 hrs ago as my doctor said to do. So far I'm fine, although very tired when not moving around. As a side note, 13 years ago I used 50mg of natraxone to help to stop drinking alcohol, it helped a lot and I stopped drinking since then.I messed up about 10 years later and started taking 20-80mg percocet once in a while but it got out of conrol. I tried to use the 50mg naltraxone to stop that and was told by the clinic that helped me to stop drinking to stop taking opiates for 10 days to transition to subxone. After 4 days off the naltraxone I went to a the clinic that gave me the 50mg naltraxone for consultation and they said it was fine to start the suboxone. I was leary due to the time span but did as they said and within 15 minutes I started to detox fast and became violently ill. I was sick for about a week. Anyway, I think that the 50mg of naltraxone vs the 2mg of naloxone is a big difference. It's been over 3 hours I'm OK other than being very tired. I just thought I'd post this to see if there's anything that i should be aware of or if it might inform anyone. Also I would like to know the difference between naltraxone and naltoxone. Also the suboxone is helping with the pain.

Also, no ur not gonna feel the opiate no matter what strength. Suboxone blocks u frm getting an effect from any other opiates. If you are off the suboxone for 2-3 days, you will feel effects of the codeine again.

Just to clarify for anyone else seeking similar information:

No, you cannot take other narcotics, while you are actively taking Suboxone, since one of its ingredients is Naloxone, which is intended to neutralize other narcotics to prevent their abuse, while someone is being treated for addiction with Suboxone.

You can learn more Suboxone details here.

When you want to start Suboxone, or start back on it, you have to be in full withdrawal from all other opiates, or it could put you into dangerous withdrawals.

Are there any other questions or comments?

more info please!
1) what dose are you on, how long have you been taking suboxone?
2) How much codeine we talking about? Are you meaning a dose to make you feel high? Or do you have a headache?!
3) what is your usage history?
If you have been on Suboxone over a few days then dont take codeine as it will have no effect. It wont hurt you but wont do anything either as the suboxone will boot it out your receptors. You say 'would I feel it' which suggests to me you are looking to get high off the codeine. So the answer is 'No' unless you are on a very low dose and take a high codeine dose. I honestly wouldn't, why bother? if you are getting clean, you would be better sticking with it. If you are an ex-codeine addict and want to feel good, consider switching to methadone (No, Dr House, it isn't as dangerous as you make out - certainly not in the minute dose you appeared to be doing! ) or if you are really dumb join the rest of us junkies on the gear. Hope you are rich though!
