Zubsolv And Smoking Cigarettes (Top voted first)
UpdatedHow long do I need to wait after I smoked a cigarette to take Zubsolv? I know the nicotine can block the Suboxone due to the same thing they attached to in the brain. I was told 20 for Suboxone. What is the time on Zubsolv?

Hi Natalie,
According to Northland Addiction Treatment Rehab Center in Milford, Ohio - Patients should refrain from eating, drinking, or smoking for 30 minutes before taking Suboxone as well as 30 minutes after taking Suboxone. From what they've stated, food, beverages or nicotine/tobacco can seriously impair the absorption of Suboxone.

(Scroll down to the section titled "How is Suboxone Taken as a Form of Medication-Assisted Treatment?")
Since Suboxone and Zubsolv are inherently the same thing (Buprenorphine + Naloxone), I'd assume the same rules apply?However 30 minutes may be a conservative time frame to whomever told you 20... You should probably double check with your prescribing doctor just to be on the safe side.
Hope this helps!
