I took a 1/4 of a suboxone a friend had given me around 6:00 pm today. How long do I have to wait until I can take a Percocet for pain and not get it and have it work?

You will not get sick by taking an opiate after you take a sub. Its only the other way around. If you have a habit and take subs before you are in withdrawl it will put you into precipitated withdrawls. But not if your already on subs. An opiate wont put you into withdrawls

Hello, i go back and fourth with taking pills... But i also got clean with suboxone. So now i take suboxone when i want to function with no withdraws.. If i take a strip of 8mg it takes about a full 48 hours until i can feel any type of opiate. I took a half mg of a an 8 mg strip and opiates 24 hours after and did not feel anything... Waste lol. But i just took a quarter of one this morning cause i just got withdraw and i am going to take oxy later and c if i feel anything after 5 hours. But in my past i found that suboxone is not long term... I got addicted to that more than opiates!!! I did get clean for a while and it took me about 6 weeks of just being on xanax to feel like a normal person again. It's a bad cycle but i started after i broke about 12 bones in 3 years, I was in pain. I am always in pain and i have metal plates in my arm and clavicle. Honestly if the doctor's never cut me off i would have never turned to any other pill!!! Its f****d up but ya. Just do the math an 8 mg lasts 24 to 48 hours; just cut the hours with the mlg. I hope this helped.

My question to you is do u have withdrawals from not taking a sub? Are they just something else to get hooked on? I took my first about month ago, one strip will last me about 4 days.

Good advice & yes, opiate addiction can & will mess up your life. I was blessed with a decent job, a big & beautiful townhouse for my 2 kids & I. Lost EVERYTHING in less than 2years. It was awful. We went to go stay with a relative and I admitted myself at an inpatient hospital to help with my addiction to opiates Percocet was my choice. I had never heard of suboxone & was scared out of my mind because I thought I was gonna be in that place sick as a dog. The doctor gave me a suboxone tablet to put under my tongue and within 15mins, I felt great. It made my time there so much easier & I met some great women in that place who was going through similar issues. They were just like me, had kids & wanted to do right for their sake. If at all possible, stick with just the suboxone.... (the ppl who switch up). I will keep all of u in my thoughts and prayers. I know what opiates are capable of causing. It's equivalent to a man who looks good, great in bed but lies & cheats on u.

This is all bull crap. If you do a quarter of a 8mg strip in the morning by 5 or 6 hours later you can start taking your opiates. I do this all day every day. No I'm not proud of it but just telling you. But who knows everyone may be different.

Stay the course!! I've back-stepped quite a few times and KNOW that staying on the subs is the answer. If whatever you're doing cannot be maintained, stay away. You know it will work it's way back into your life and you will plummet!! Be strong. It may seem to suck but the alternatives suck more. Also, if folks don't have detailed, helpful info, stay off the site! We're all fighting fit our lives, so don't be careless and flippant!!

Hi, I've been taking 30mg percocet for 4yrs now. Not everyday, I would take perks everyday for about a week then switch to subs. Sometimes I would take a half of a suboxene strip then take a percocet and not get sick and would feel the percocet. My husband on the other hand would get sick, he has to go a half a day clean before taking a percocet to feel it. It is supposed to be an opiate blocker. So, I guess it all depends on the person. The only thing you can do is try and see what happens. I think if you have a problem you should see a suboxene doctor and get put on the program. It will really save your life and the suboxene will give you the same energy feeling. Being an addict is no life and you will never get ahead in life, most people lose everything before they realize it's a problem and by then it's too late. I wouldn't wish opiate addiction upon anyone. I went thru it and now have to build my life back up. Hope this helped, good luck

I have been on Suboxone for 4 months. I took a 8mg this morning. I am having a really bad tooth ache. Would it hurt me to take a 10mg percocet for the pain?

I took half of an 8 mg sub at 11am, first time I've ever taken suboxone. How long do I wait to take a hydrocodone and be able to feel it? The wd feeling I had from not having any hydrocodone (which is why I took the sub this morning) is already back.

Hello, ive been on opiate pain killers for 11 years. I broke my back and thats when they found out i have spinal stenosis. For the last year i have been taking 6-10 30mg oxycodone. I get UA'd for my doctor and prob. but my drug panels have been clean for the last 6 months! How the hell does that happen? So, 2 months ago my dr kicks me off my meds all together, no warning, no decrease, nothing, because she didnt believe me that i take them. I thought the withdrawals would kill me, so i started getting my meds via other means. They're so expensive and i cant work right now due to my health but i hate my life. I would love to get to work, be social and actually live my life. I tried a suboxone today and its wonderful for the withdrawals but unfortunately im still in a lot of pain. I dont know what to do, but everyday i wake up wishing i hadn't. I need help, advice, something. I know there has to be people out there that have been in a similar situation and overcame it. I need to know what to do.

Did waiting the 7 hours work? Did it help the extra period pain? I'm in a very similar situation. I know this is old but if you could lmk that'd be great!

Yes you'll be fine. But don't do it. Go get a dr. And counseling and save your life. I've been there, did the same thing, now I'm on subs only and the difference is unremarkable.
