Can you mainline suboxone?

Yes, you most certainly can. Suboxone is an opiate, just like opium, heroin, morphine, hydrocodone, oxycodone, methadone, codeine, etc., and all opiates are extremely physically addictive. Taking opiates every day for just a week or two -- or taking them around the clock for just a few days -- will result in a serious physical addiction, and the pain of withdrawal is horrible, and can last for months. People take Suboxone so they can quit taking other opiates -- like heroin or oxycodone -- without the pain of withdrawal. For someone who is already addicted to opiates, Suboxone feeds the physical addiction, without getting the person high. However, once you've quit getting high and started taking Suboxone, you are now addicted to the Suboxone. The only way to stop taking Suboxone, without withdrawal pain, is to very slowly decrease your dosage over a period of several months, or even a few years.


If you have taken suboxone will you feel a 30mg OC?

It depends on several different factors: how much suboxone you took, how long have you been taking it, and if you only took a suboxone once between taking pills: how high your tolerance is to oxycodone.If you only took one dose of suboxone (between 2mg and 8mg) you should be able to feel the full effect of the OC after 24 hours. After about 12 hours you'll feel some effects, but definitely not what you would normally expect from 30mg of OC. If you've been taking Suboxone for several days in a row, it would be difficult to guage how long it will take for you to feel the full effects. Suboxone has a 36 hour half life so it builds up in your system. The longer you take it and the higher the dose, the longer it will take for it to leave your system completely.


Can you take Lexapro while on suboxon?

Yes, you can take antidepressants with Suboxone. I am currently taking Suboxone with Cymbalta to treat my fibromyalgia, and Deseryl for sleep. My physician has recently taken me off Deseryl for sleeping and switched me to Remeron instead to improve my sleep, appetite, and treat a gastrointestinal disorder. So you can see here, how antidepressants can be combined with other antidepressants to help treat different disorders while taking Suboxone for example, to treat my chronic pain with my Cervical Disk Disease. You should check with your doctor, however, to make sure he prescribes an antidepressant that is compatible with Suboxone.


How long does it take for your nipples to heal once they are pierced?

You can change the jewelry after 2-3 months once the swelling goes down. It takes at least 6-9 months for them to heal completely though :)

How long to should you wait until you can take a suboxone?

It can be different from one person to the next, but my experience is as such: I had to detox from methadone to start a Suboxone detox, my last dose of methadone came on a Monday at 10AM, I was to start Suboxone on Thursday morning, the cold turkey off the methadone became a bit much by Wednesday. I shot 2 bags to curb the withdrawals at 4PM on Wednesday and was dosed with 16 mgs OS Suboxone at 8:30AM on Thursday as planned and was not feeling great but was safe from the sickness that comes from taking suboxone to soon after your last push off. Hope that helps a bit.


If you are on heroin for three months how much methadone do you need to not go through withdrawal?

Methadone will not cure your heroin addiction. It will only keep you from going through withdrawal if you continue taking it. Once you stop taking the methadone, you will start going into withdrawal. Methadone, as well as Suboxone, are opiate antagonists. They feed your physical dependence on opiates, and they block an opiate high, so even if you relapse and start using heroin again, you won't get high on it. Heroin, Suboxone, methadone, opium, hydrocodone, hydromorphone, oxycodone, codeine, etc...these are all opiate drugs (made from the opium poppy). Methadone (as well as Suboxone) is just an opiate that won't get you high. It helps you quit getting high, but it does not cure or get rid of your physical dependence on opiates. When you are ready to stop taking Suboxone, you wean yourself off of it very slowly, usually over a period of several months. I would assume the same is true of methadone, but I have never taken methadone, so I don't know too much about it.
