It is virtually impossible, although technically it can happen. The potential for respiratory overdose is very low. Should a person take more than 24 mg per day, a person may experience mental impairment due to the life of the drug that stays in a person's body. After taking your prescribed dose for a few days, the physician should start a taper. As a person continues to use Suboxone at doses as high as 24 mg per day, the drug is continuing to increase in the persons body and does cause some of the same issues as an opiate (which it is an opiate). Overdose can occur with higher levels of the drug being used for extended periods of time. The safety factor with Suboxone is the ceiling effect it has on the respiratory system. This does not mean that the drug will not cause a "high" effect. It only means the safety of causing respiratory depression in an individual is safer with the ceiling effect built into the drug Suboxone.
If you are a recreational user you may be able to get a high, but it's not going to be a good high like you get with heroin, morphine, fentanyl, or oxycontin).
So most people don't cause themselves to overdose because they notice that they feel the same with 48 mgs in their system as they do with 32 mgs. That is, at least, my understanding of how the drug works, which was explained to me by my doctors.

Can i take suboxone 8 hours after taking oxycodone?
That depends on whether you are taking the morphine recreationally (to get high), or if you are taking it for pain. If you are taking it to get high, then no, it won't work. You will have to wait at least 36 hours, but probably more like 48 to 72 hours, until the Suboxone is out of your system, before you can feel the effects of the morphine. If you are taking it for pain, then yes, it should still work as a painkiller, even though it won't get you high.
