Yes!! A very big difference, if you do not take it sublingually (dissolved under tongue) then you will not be getting all of the bupremorphine in your system. Just swallowing it will render the drug almost ineffective. Take the time to let it dissolve!!

How long does suboxone need to dissolve?
It depends on whether you are taking pills (which you do not swallow), or sublingual strips. It should take no longer than 5-10 minutes. Also remember not to swallow while the Suboxone is still under the tongue. Swallowing will lessen the effect, these drugs do not work nearly as well when ingested, they must be absorbed by the blood vessels of the tongue. Always keep the Suboxone under your tongue, do not simply hold it in your mouth.-B. Neych MD PhD-Wayne State University

Can suboxone be dissolved in urine to make test positive?
Put it in your mouth and swallow. The test is not looking for suboxone. It's looking for the metabolites of it, which are produced when you take the drug and it processes through your liver.But I need to know: Why do you want to come back positive on a drug test?

I always do. When it's dissolving under the tongue let it completely dissolve then you can swallow. Avoid talking, chewing, drinking and anything else if possible that way you take in as much under the tongue as possible
I need To take oxycodone for a tooth problem how long do you need to be off suboxone for the oxycodone to work?
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.

Yes, you can take suboxone and ativan together. Suboxone does not block the effects of ativan. However, taking too much ativan with suboxone, could cause respiratory failure. So, to be safe, stick to the prescribed dosages of both medications.
