Absolutely not. a Suboxone dr. won't even see you. You need to get your methadone dose down to 30mg. Then they want you off methadone for 3 days before starting Suboxone. They want you in the beginnings of w/drawals. The chemicals in Suboxone will pull the methadone out of it's receptors but not replace it right away, so the receptors remain empty and you get sick.

Can you take methadone while detoxing from suboxone?

It is not a good idea to mix drugs unless your doctor or pharmacist says they are OK together. It does not matter what two or more drugs we are talking about. Even over-the-counter medications and supplements have interactions, so you should always check with a trained professional. That said, WikiAnswers does not give information about illegal acts, such as using methamphetamine.


Is it ok to mix dramamine with methadone?

I usually take my daily dose of 100mgs of methadone and 30mins later I take about 400mgs of dramamine. This usualy intensifies the opiate "warmth" resulting greater euphoria. The key to this is timming. The methadone takes an hour to kick in for me. And 30 mins for the dramamine to kick in. So this allows the combination of the two to kick in at the same time.


I am planning on switching from methadone to suboxone treatment. Will I still feel good on the suboxone?

NO...I've been on suboxone for two years. It's ok, but when you cheat and try and take painkillers, etc it has no effect. This stuff trully blocks it. I was even in the hospital and had a shoot of morphine and it barley made a dent. (broke my nose) I've been thinking of switching to methadone-becuase I just can't stop fighting the cravings. So, my answer is no, suboxone does nothing to make you feel any different.

Can you take fioricet with suboxone?

Yes. It is perfectly fine to take firocet with suboxone. I am prescribed both. Suboxone for getting off these awful pain killers and firocet for migraines I've had most of my life. I even asked my Suboxone doctor if it was ok before I did mix the two. He said it is "perfectly fine" and that the firocets mixed with the suboxone do not "mess" with each other and "it is NOT harmful".Hope this helps!I think Fiorcet is available with or without Codeine, so as long as you are taking the one WITHOUT Codeine it should be okay. You should just ask your doctor, as with any drug interaction questions...even a pharmacist would give you an answer without asking too many questions.

Will someone who is on methadone maintenance test positive for opiate or is it nessesary to include methadone on the list of drugs to be tested for?

Yes it is. Methadone is often sold to people other than the user. So it is 100% necessary to include methadone on the list of drugs they test for to make sure that you are taking it. Giving methadone to somebody else can easily kill them. Your dose is designed for you, what is OK for you could kill somebody else. And if that should happen, you would be charged. You would be responsible for that. I am on methadone and they test us for it. METHADONE IS AUTOMATICALLY TESTED AT METHADONE CLINICS ALONG WITH OPIATES, BENZODIAZEPAM, COCAINE, ECT.
