Want this question answered?
I got the vivitrol shot 19 days ago. My cravings came back strongly around day 16, although It did reduce my cravings significantly until then. On day 18 after the injection I had overwhelming cravings and was concerned I would use. I resorted to taking 4mg of suboxone and it certainly helped reduce my cravings and desire to use. I had no negative side effects. Some things you should know before you make your choice are to know you will need to be careful not to take very much until you reassess your tolerance as it may have decreased exponentially depending on how long it has been since the last time you used. While I can only share my experience keep in mind I am not certain you will react the same way I did but I can tell you for certain that whatever you decide to do you need to be off of any opioid or partial opiate agonist such as suboxone for 7 to 10 days or within minutes of receiving the vivitrol injection it will cause you to go into rapid intense withdrawals. As a fellow recovering addict I sincerely wish you success in yours. In the case described above, it is pure psychological effect, that 4mg of Suboxone reduced the cravings while having vivtrol shot. Vivitrol is blocking opioid receptors, and Suboxone is an opioid drug, therefore, 4mg of suboxone couldn't make any affect since vivtrol had blocked all opioid receptors. However, if one takes higher dosages of Suboxone, is at risk of getting overdosed, since they might override the vivtrol and all of a sudden, on clean opioid receptors, a huge quantity of opioid arrives. That is a great risk.
Yes. My husband had kidney stones and I took him to the emergency room and they gave him several injections in his IV. It didn't make him sick, but it didn't kill the pain either. Finally, they gave him Ativan. BINGO! The nurse said it works everytime.
Suboxone does not show up in drug tests!!!!!!! YOUR FINE
crack overdose or he took a shot gun and shot himself to dealth while eating cocione
If your body is used to suboxone then you can usually only be on a stonger narcotic up to about three days before you have a rough conversion back onto the suboxone. But you should wait the correct time for the stronger narcotic to ware off before taking the suboxone again.
Yes, it is okay to take NyQuil if you are taking Suboxone. I am on Suboxone and I take NyQuil; in fact I just took some yesterday.
wait at least 12 hours. usually after taking opioid such as heroin, fentanyl, morphine, hydrocodone you have to wait at least 24 hours. but ive found with oxycodone you only need to wait 12. no less than 12 though.
Absolutely nothing at all would happen the the buprenorphine will block the tiny amount of hydrocodone and you would feel nothing. Even if you took a hand full the same day as you took suboxone, it would block the hydrocodone.
No, if you take methadone, you should not mix it with suboxone. Make sure the methadone is out of you system before taking suboxone. Combining these medications can result in instant withdrawals and severe sickness.
Yes, you will be fine.
Either take one or the other. Never mix these 2
only if you are a girl
