How long do you have to wait after taking 6 mg of suboxine to get a buzz from methadone?

I tried after 24 hrs and went through the worst withdrawal of my life. It is important that you should wait 36hrs after taking methadone to use suboxone. However I did not have the same affect the other way around i.e. taking methadone after being on suboxone


Why would methadone show up on your urine test while taking suboxone?

It wouldn't, unless methadone was one of the drugs being abused/used and was still in the person's system at the time of the urine test. It takes some time for methadone to be "flushed" out of a user's system due to its very long half life.


How long do you wait to take suboxone after being on 140mgs of methadone?

You should wait until you are experiencing full withdrawals. I would recommend waiting at least 36 hours and 48 hours if you can stand it. If you wait 48 hours you will definitely not get sick but I it is risky before that.

Can you get hogh on heroin if taking it 13 hours afyer 3mg of suboxone?

For starters, I wouldn't advise that an opiate addict take prescription pain medication while trying to get off of other opiates using Suboxone. Suboxone is used for opiate dependence and addiction, and should be used as part of an enitre recovery plan. With that being said, it should be fine taking the Norco after that much time has elapsed just as long as you take the Norco AFTER the Suboxone and not before. Taking Norco before can cause full blown precipitate withdrawls, and an individual should wait to take Suboxone until they are starting to withdrawl from the other opiates. Again, I advise that any individual on Suboxone should stay on it, so that they do not screw up their chances of recovering. You can do it!


If you have opiates in your system can you take Suboxone?

The short answer is: It depends on the strength and amount and type of Opiate you are taking. If you are on Methadone you are in for a rough ride. If you are hooked on Vicodin, or hydrocodone you can start as soon as you feel a bit rough, that being said talk to a doctor or someone who has been in your situation.


How long after taking 16 mgs of suboxone can you feel opiates?

I would say you would need to firstly wait until withdrawal effects have started (if you are addicted to opiates), or you need to wait until the opiate is "out of your system" (if you simply use opiates recreationally and are not addicted). If you take Suboxone whilst under the influence of opiates (ie, heroin, methadone...etc) then you will encounter what's called "precipitated withdrawals". This is particularly nasty, and feels much, much worse than the usual withdrawal symptoms.Although I allude to the opiate being "out of your system" above, that does not necessarily mean it need to be completely out of your bloodstream... to put it simply, you just need to make sure you are no longer under the influence of opiates. For example, if you take heroin on a Monday, it will still be in your system by the Thursday, but you would be ok to take the suboxone on the Tuesday as you wouldn't be drug induced by then. (NB; the previous example will not apply to methadone, which has a much larger half-life and can keep you drug induced for nearly 48hours).Basically just use your judgment - only use the suboxone when you feel sober
