Good luck LoProf!!! My heart goes out to you. Let me know how it goes. I couldn't take the pain so I took 3 30mg roxi (my usual dose as I said b4) just 20 min ago & I'm already starting to feel some relief. Not as much as usual but any relief will do. I was ready to tear my eyes out from the stabbing & nothing OTC or baths or cold/hot compresses were doing anything. I think it must depend on it tolerance. I've been on same dose of roxis for 4 years now so my tolerance is really high. I also have dilaudid for the really bad (like ER type) migraines. It only works some of the time so I prefer the roxis.

I took 4mg of suboxone today @6am & 4mg @12pm. How long till I can take my usual 30mg roxis? I usually take 10-14 30mg roxi/day (2-3 at a time) for severe chronic migraines but ran out for 2 days, hence the subs on 2nd day. But I will get my roxis @4pm. When is it safe to take because I have a raging migraine.

I wondering the same as"need help". Last sub was 3pm yesterday but I need to take the 30OC ASAP. Sitting on them sucks! From all my research it seems like we can take them as soon as we want, but the effect will just be less which is my experience in the past. Took 4 Norco couple hrs after 8mg sub and didn't have any effect on me. In other words, I didn't feel the norc and the sub effect wasn't fazed or compromised. I'm at 19 hrs now and going to take a 30 oc. A rule of thumb for me is to wait till my pupils dilate....then I know I'm ready. I'll report back. Wish me luck !

Yep! All good! Basically just trading one for the other except I'll admit it did take a couple extra the rest of today. Still NO sickness and things only got better as my receptors loosened the sub and accepted the opis. After 3 30s (blue roxi) I'm pain free finally and feeling awesome. Definitely NOT like going from op to subs where you HAVE to wait. There should be zero worry for anyone trying to switch this way. There's NO possibility of precip WD and nothing to worry about going from sub to your normal opi`s again. Good luck and I wish everyone a pain free world...especially if you legitimately need it.

I took 8 mg of suboxone at 3pm, but I slipped up and took opiates at 2 am the next morning. Is it safe to take my morning dose of suboxone like I was supposed to since I took the opiates earlier that morning? I didn't feel the opiates at all, so I know the suboxone was working.

I started detoxing with suboxone...then I took opiates after I took an 8 mg dose. Do I need to wait to be sick again or will that suboxone be in me blocking my opiate?

In a lot of pain and ran out of pain medication due to doctor alienation, but I found these white round Suboxone pills with '57' on them. Is there a recommended time frame between taking an opiate and the Suboxone? What is the normal dosage for a female weighing 125 lbs?
