yes you can, allthough you will not get any buzz what so ever from the vicodin, so its really a waste of the v's. the vicodin will still have the pain killig effect though. best to wait 24 hours at least after taking the suboxone before you take the v's.

As long as you're not taking massive amounts of the Suboxone (like, more than two 8-mg pills) yes, the Vicodin will still work as a pain killer, even though you won't get high from it. You will probably have to take a double dose of it, though, or even a triple dose, depending on how much Suboxone you are taking. I am on Suboxone and last autumn I had a root canal, and the oral surgeon prescribed Vicodin for me, but I had to take double doses of it to get enough relief from the pain. I also had to cut my Suboxone dose in half (I was taking 8-mgs per day and cut it down to 4).

Whatever you do, don't stop taking the Suboxone completely, because if you completely stop taking it you will have to wait until you're in extreme withdrawal from the Vicodin before you start taking Suboxone again. If you stop taking the Suboxone, and then start taking it again before you're in heavy withdrawal from the Vicodin, you will experience the worst, most horrible withdrawal symptoms you can imagine. You will get really, really sick.

Yes, you can, but you must wait a minimum of 18 to 24 hours before taking the Suboxone. If you take the Suboxone before you are in full-blown, severe withdrawal from the Vicodin, you will get really, really sick. It will produce the most horrible withdrawal symptoms you can imagine.

This would be an appropriate question to ask your doctor for the safest answer for you. Technically speaking it should be safe for someone to take a Vicodin after taking suboxone 12 hours ago.

Will Vicodin show up on a drug test while taking Suboxone?

yes Vicodin contains hydrocodone/codein and it will show up on a drug test for 2-3 days after ingestion. Suboxone does not make you urinate clean for any opiate (or any drug for that matter) on a drug screen. Suboxone contains buprenorphine and naloxone and it blocks the effects of other opiates for 24-72 hours after your last dose depending on how much suboxone you took. Also, because suboxone contains buprenorphine, DO NOT take suboxone for at least 12-24 hours after taking any kind of opiate as it will immediately put you into precipitated withdrawals. It is exactly like withdrawing from opiates if you are physically dependent on them and is not something to be taken lightly. Opiate withdrawal is absolutely horrible and if you can avoid the onset of withdrawals you should do so at any cost.

Why can you take Suboxone if you are taking benzodiazepines?

Because benzodiazepines are not opiates. They are...benzodiazepines. Suboxone only blocks the effects of opiate drugs. Although, you should be careful taking benzodiazepines (Valium, Xanax) with Suboxone. As they are both depressants, taking too much of them together could cause an overdose. Actually, you can even take opiates while you are on Suboxone. You won't be able to get high on them, but they will still work as painkillers (although you might have to double your dosage of the painkiller). A couple of years ago I had a root canal and they gave me Vicodin for it, but I had to take double doses of the Vicodin, and cut my Suboxone dose in half, in order to get enough relief from the pain.
