How Long Does 1 Mg Suboxone Last

Hello I have been on opiates for about 2 years now and I was given a half of a quarter of a subutex and this is my first time taking it. I was wanting to know when it wears off? I think it threw me into full detox because I took 20 mg of hydrocodone 7 hours before I took the sub. I am aware I have a problem I just want to know when the sub will wear off. Took it at 1:30 pm, it's now 9:30pm.

It usually takes about 72 hours, before other opiates will be effective for you, again.

The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and could cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation.

Is there anything else I can help with?

That is not necessarily true. If it's the only one he has ever taken and in such a small dose it should only last 8 to 12 hours. It may remain in your system for 72 but it will stop blocking other opiates in 12 hours. Also if you take a lower dosage you can knock off some of the receptors the Beuphronorphrine is attached to, then wait an hour before then taking a full dosage of meds and you will most definitely achieve the full effect.

Suboxone is strong stuff. I take half of one mg. And can't get past the last quarter. I hear you can feel horrible for months especially the depression.. Holy crappy and the drug epidemic is here. Open suboxone clinics for the poor and rich but a two mg strip is ten bucks!!! but it saved me from suicide..that's why it's 10 bucks a strip! The government should give these for free after a check up. Withdrawals come on every 20 hours and no way could I hold a job.
