the half life of suboxone is 36 hours. So 72 hours would eliminate the suboxone from you entirely. But depending on your dose you could have oxycodone work sooner. Example if your mu receptors are not filled (2mg suboxone or below). But all in all you will have to wait a full two days before the oxycodone will work to your satisfaction, to my expierence.

Will suboxone show up in a Urine Drug Screen looking for oxycodone?
No, Suboxone is a synthetic opiod drug and does not produce the same metabolites that oxycodone does. A standard drug screen for opiates will come up positive after oxycodone use, it will not after Suboxone use. Suboxone needs to be specifically tested for.
How soon can Oxycodone be taken for pain after Suboxone?
Suboxone (buprenorphine & naloxone) can stay in your system up to 48 - 72 hours. As long as it's in your system, the buprenorphine and the oxycodone will be competing with each other for opiate receptors in your brain; thus reducing the effect of oxycodone. Best to wait at least the half life of buprenorphine (20-48 hrs.) before taking the oxy.
I've bin taking oxycotton if I take a suboxone before my drugtest will it block the oxycotton on the test?
No it won't, suboxone's structure is still based on Morphines, just like most opiates besides a few such as fentanyl. First of all, I'm FAIRLY certain the suboxone will come up as positive on its own. Second of all, there's no reason it will block the oxycodone on the test, it does help block it from reaching opiate receptors, but that's just in your brain and the oxycodone will still be in your blood/urine if you've used it probably 3 days or closer to a drug test. Suboxone has a very long half life, so it could take up to a week or more to pass a drug test if you were using suboxone.

Can one take Oxycontin with suboxone to take away withdrawls have been taking Oxycontin 200mg per day thought if started getting the sub in the body meant no withdrawls please thanks?
DO NOT MIX SUBOXONE & OXYCODONE! To start out, it's important to know what the drugs do & how they work. Suboxone is a combination of primarily buprenorphine & Naloxone. Buprenorphine is a synthetic opiate and a partial opiod agonist, which means that is has an attraction to the natural opiod receptors in your brain. It has a very long half-life and stays in your system a lot longer than oxy. As odd as it may seem, buprenorphine also acts as an antagonist in the brain and has what's called a ceiling effect, meaning you can't get any "higher" than a certain level. Naloxone is an opiod antagonist and actually reverses the effects of opiates in your brain. It's often used in an ER for opiate overdoses. It is put in Suboxone to discourage IV users from crushing the pills & injecting them. Oxycodone, a much stronger opiate than buprenorphine, is a full opiod agonist and has a much stronger attraction to those receptors although it lasts significantly shorter than buprenorphine. It is not a good idea to mix Suboxone & oxycodone because the two drugs "compete" for opiate receptors in the brain. What this means is that the Suboxone will basically render the oxycodone useless and you will experience little or no effect from the oxycodone. Suboxone is supposed to be used to ease withdrawl symptoms from opiates like herion, oxycodone, methadone, etc. and is not to be used in conjunction with them. Stick with one or the other - good luck! Answer 2 The suboxone will overpower the oxycodone, and depending on your dose of suboxone & when you take it in relation to your dose of oxy, you're either going to feel diminished effects of the oxy, or no effects at all. if you're got access to suboxone, you've got a great tool to help you live a clean, productive life. be grateful for this & stick to the subs. you're going to feel a little uneasy for a week or so while your body adjusts to the subs, but afterwards you'll feel absolutely perfect. your body still needs to detox though, so if you can make it just one week without oxy (and i know it's tough), staying clean - and being happy, suboxone acts as an amazing antidepressant- should be as easy as taking your subs every morning. hope you feel better, it's a long road, but every journey begins with the first step.
What will happen if you mix suboxone and Darvocet?
They will not mix.The suboxone will block the opiate(hydrocodone,Oxycodone,codeine,etc) and if you have been on the opiate long term the suboxone will cause precipitated withdrawal.ONLY take suboxone after 24 hours opiate free and if your ready to get off opiates

Took suboxone want to take oxycodone 30?
You should really, really talk to a doctor or pharmacist before doing this. There are potentially life-threatening complications that can arise from this combination. If you want to wake up tomorrow, discuss this with a doctor or pharmacist BEFORE taking any more suboxone or oxycodone. Remember, there are plenty of 24 hour pharmacies out there. Even if there isn't one in your area, you can call one somewhere else in your state or even in the US. Long-distance charges are nothing compared to the hospital bills you'll (hopefully be around to) pay if you overdose.
Can you take Cough medicine with Codeine while taking suboxone?
That should not be a problem as long as it does not contain dextromethorphan, which doesn't play nicely with downers.
The fastest way to get suboxone out of your system?
The only way to take Suboxone is to dissolve it under your tongue. Swallowing it won't work, because it won't dissolve in your stomach. And don't even think about crushing it up and snorting it or smoking it; it simply does not work that way. You can do that with heroin, and it sort of works with Vicodin and oxycodone, but not with Suboxone. Furthermore, the maximum amount of Suboxone you can take at one time is 32 milligrams (four 8-mg pills). Taking any more than that will have no effect, so don't even try: it's just a waste of expensive medication.
