How long does it take for painkillers to work after stopping suboxone I have a chronic painful disease and I am stopping the suboxone cold turkey tonight I have been on it for about a year and a half?

Because of the nature of Buprenorphine, it is not a good idea to take it with other opiate pain medicine, because it blocks as well as stimulates different opiate receptors and can reduce their effects. Suboxone, one brand of Buprenorphine, is formulated with Naloxone (Narcan). It is a very powerful opiate "blocker" BUT in this case is only added to the formulation to prevent IV use of the drug, as the Naloxone is destroyed by stomach acids. Keeping all this in mind as soon as the opiate receptors are sufficiently clear of the Suboxone, other narcotic pain meds can be used to control your pain. How fast this happens depends on your Suboxone dosage as well how long you were on it, but after 48 hours you should start seeing an improvement in the effectiveness of your pain medication. This of course depends on what drug you are now prescribed, and if you were taking the Suboxone for pain control or opiate dependency maintenance. I didnt take my dose last night so its been way over 24 hours since my last dose do you think theres any way the pain medication if I take a higher dose will work? I am just in agony? Thankyou.


Can you take suboxone after taking Oxycontin?

Not unless you feel like going into intense precipitated withdrawals and wanting to claw your eyes out. Trust me, don't do it. In fact, you need to wait at the bare minimum 12-15 hours after your last dose of heroin until you can take suboxone. You should really wait 24 hours though. You need to be in withdrawal from the heroin before the suboxone will work without making it ten times worse.


What happens if you take Oxycontin while going through suboxone withdrawals?

No, you will not go into withdrawls, however, it would be a waste of Diluadid since Suboxone is an opiod-blocker and keeps you from getting high off of any opiate. But if you were taking Dilaudid and then immediately began taking Suboxone, THAT would cause you to go into withdrawls.


Should suboxone be capitalized?

No, it shouldn't be.


How long after Suboxone Maintenance can one get high by Suboxone?

If you're trying to get high on suboxone after being on it to get you off opiates, you should probably go back to rehab.

Do you take suboxone every 12 hours?

Yes you can. Taking suboxone first and then using can cause you to have withdrawals. But 12 hours should be enough to take subutex/suboxone

Is there any suboxone left in a empty package of suboxone?

If you have used all of the suboxone in a package, then there will be done left. If a package is empty, that means there is nothing left in the package.


I need a narcotic analgesic that will work with the suboxone I take for a medical condition. What narcotic should I ask my Dr. for that will work with my suboxone other than ultram?

If your doctor prescribes a narcotic while you're taking Suboxone, his medical license should probably be revoked.
