I took two Darvocets this morning (about 8:00 a.m.) then took my regular 8 mg Suboxone about 2:00 p.m. and feel great. I've been on 16 mg Sub (one in the a.m. and one in the p.m.) a day now almost three years. There is not enough Naloxone in the 8 mg tablets to make you sick unless you crush/inject it. It's only then that the Naloxone is activated. So, I'd say within four-six hours or so after taking an opiate, you're good to go with the Sub as long as you take it as directed (sublingually, no injecting).

∙ 14y agoThe half life of buprenorphine in Suboxone is 2.5 hours so it will be 90% out of your system in about 8.5 hours.
That is the most uneducated answer I have seen on here in awhile. The Half Life of suboxone is one of the longest of any opiate out there,hence it is for opiate detox and maintence,which makes it longer than 2.5. Dilaudid half life is 2.64 which is one of the quickest opiates to get out of your body. To answer your question, 36 hours is the half life and depending on the dose,it can be longer. And Darvocet will not work for you what so ever after being on suboxone. I'm on Suboxone and have to wait 3 days to take any opiate, and for it to take effect, it has to be dilaudid or stronger. Everybody is different though. But, Don't listen to 90 percent out of your system in 8 and a half hours. Good luck.......
You can believe the pharmacist or the drug addict, up to you.

How long after taking Tylenol should you wait before taking Darvocet?
Since Darvocet has Tylenol in it, you cannot take them within 4 hours of each other. Try alternating Darvocet with ibuprofen - take the ibuprofen every 6 to 8 hours, and if you need Darvocet, take it at least 3 hours after the ibuprofen. That way, you won't get too much Tylenol, but it will relieve your pain better.

Yes. Generally opiates are taken every four-six hours. Since Darvocet is a synthetic opiate, you're okay to take a Lorcet within four hours of a Darvocet. I wouldn't take them together though.
