I lowered my dose gradually. I started at 2 8mg tablets daily. Went down to 1 a day.Cracking it in half and taking half in the morning and the other half at night. Then I went down to cracking the half in half after about 3 days of cracking the 1 in half. I also took 10mg Valium coming down from the bigger dose. One a day for the Valium. After taking half of the half for 3 days, I took a quarter of a half, in the morning then at night for a couple days then I didn't take any and I was fine. I did continue the Valium for a couple weeks but I went down to 5mg of Valium instead of 10. I am currently still on the Valium Because I get panic attacks real bad so that is all I take now. I had the panic attacks before I started taking suboxone so that was not an affect from not having the suboxone. Good Luck!!!

The only way to get off it, without experiencing a long and painful withdrawal, is to very slowly decrease your dosage over a period of several months, or even a couple of years. The slower you do it, the less painful it will be.

You must slowly taper your dose down 2mg at a safe comfortable rate.

When detoxing from opiates the suboxone replaces the opiates correct?

In a round-about way, so to speak yes. The suboxone attaches to the receptors that control pain. They keep them occupied so your brain is getting the narcotic from the suboxone in a less abusive way then opiates. Your switching to the lesser of two evils though if you don't get off the suboxone relatively quick (5-7 days) you will still have to go through detox, just then for the suboxone. The key is to not have any opiate left on the receptors, or very little, when you first take suboxone otherwise the two meds fighting for position will cause precipitated withdrawals:( Check "Your Addiction Solutions" for more


Is suboxone for pain as well?

No. Suboxone is used for opiate addicts trying to get off the opiates without withdrawals. It also helps with cravings.
