Yes. Suboxone is a synthetic opiate, and you become addicted to it just like any other opiate drug. Going cold turkey from it is no fun at all. That's one of the reasons that suboxone replacement therapy is not a good idea. If a person runs out, they are likely to turn back to heroin or other opiates to avoid the withdrawal syndrome.

No, you won't. You wouldn't even get sick if you took opiate drugs while on Suboxone (cocaine is not an opiate). What you can't do is the reverse -- take Suboxone while you're on opiate drugs. That will make you sick.

yes....not as bad as dope. but it will definitely cause withdrawal

I would have to disagree with you on this, it will have to depend on how you ingested it and how much you where taking and what type ( the orange suboxone or the white subutex or the orange strip of suboxone) the orange suboxone, or sims or stop signs can only be ingested by letting it dissolve under you tongue, the orange strip can be smoked or dissolved under your tongue, and the white subutex can be crushed and snorted which will get you high, or dissolved under you tongue. Now with that said! If you snort the white ones on a regular basis you will go thrue a withdrawal just like heroin use ie.. stomach cramps, diarrhea, vomiting, lethargic, mood swings ect. if you use them to get over the withdrawals which is what thier for and you cold turkey it then yes you will get sore, motioned sickened, headaches, constipation or diarrhea so you will have the same symptoms as a unusual withdrawal but not so intense if you dissolve it, like i said snorted is totally different! also, if you have been on it for a couple months then yes that means your depended on it and you are going to get sick, oh ya i forgot to mention the chills and sweats! good luck and you life will get better! go to meetings, addiction is a life long commitment and you can not stray at all nor slack off on it or it WILL take you over again, look up aa or na meetings online for info on them for areas around you. i hope this helps

NEVER mix these 2 drugs, the pain blocker in the suboxone fights the methadone off of your pain receptors and cancel each other out, so not only do you not feel anything it sends you into immediate withdrawls. I had to go to the e.r.

No, you just won't feel the full effects of the pill. Wait 12-16 hours per 4mg suboxone and you should be able to catch a buzz.

What is the lowest dose of methadone not to feel sick when taking suboxone?

Methadone and Suboxone should not be taken together. Mixing these medications will cause severe withdrawals no matter how much of each is taken.

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.


Are Suboxone and Methadone going to show up as the same medication in a 12 panel Non - DOT drug test?

Suboxone will not but the methadone will show as an opiate. I would give the methadone a good four days to get out but keep taking your suboxone so you dont get sick. i have been on probation taking u.a.'s for about a year and have been on suboxone for the same amount of time. I take a sub the morning of my test and it shows clean everytime. just quit the methadone and you will be fine!

I have been taking less that 8mg suboxone daily this morning I took two 7.5 but hydrocodone still have a headache and sick due to sinus infection, can I take 1/4 th strip of suboxone now and not be sick ( withdrawls)


Should you wait before taking Methadone after taking Suboxone?

Going from methadone to Suboxone will make you sick. Going the other way will not make you sick. However, long exposure to the narcotic antagonist in Suboxone will have made you far more sensitive to opiates like methadone. There is a good chance of overdose. The methadone should be phased in slowly, starting with much lower doses than normal. A better idea: get detoxed from the Suboxone if necessary, and get REALLY clean. Why go from one addiction to another? Addicted is still addicted. Don't you want to be free of all that?

Can you take methadone for 4-5 days to help suboxone withdrawal or will this prolong suboxone withdrawal?

Do NOT take methadone to get off Suboxone. Taper off Suboxone over 10 days. Cut the pills in eighths if you have to. Taking methadone for 5 days will only give you 2 addictions


What will happen if you take 10mg of methadone 24hours after taking suboxone?

Hardly anything.


If you are on 100mgs of methadone is it ok to switch to suboxone?

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.


When withdrawling from methadone when do you start taking saboxen?

It depends how many Mg of methadone you're on & how long you've been on it. You don't want to take suboxone for about 3 days from the start of the withdrawal symptoms. If you start the suboxone before then, it will make you sick.


I took suboxone after methadone and got sick what do i do?

Either take one or the other. Never mix these 2
