Waiting Till It's Safe To Take A Suboxone
(Newest replies first)

I've chosen to stop this ride looking for a legit Dr that will stay in practice. So I've, very painstakingly got myself down from 3 morphine 60mg and 3 oxycodone a day to roughly 5 mg broken oxycontin. I have sub's. When can I take it? I don't get nausea, but I've got the headache, the neverendind crawling goose flesh right now. Sweating like... Well you know. I took a fraction of a piece after about 4 hours and an oxycontin 80 cut into 8 pieces then cut again in half. So roughly 5mg. One, does cutting it kill the 12 hour duration of action, and with that when can I take a sub and how much should I take? Pleeaassee, I need help.

Suboxone withdrawal is 10x worse than opiate withdrawal. DO NOT take suboxone.

Always wait until you're going through withdrawals then take the suboxone. As far as how much to take, are they prescribed by a doctor? Doctors know how much you should take according to the amount of opiates you were using. I would start with a half first. If that doesn't help, I would take a whole one. Just make sure you're in withdrawals before taking them.
