Suboxone has a very long half life in your system usually lasting about 36-48 hours. Even after this you may not feel the "full effect" (depending how long you have been taking subox and dosage you take daily) but it will def get you nodding out. Be careful, being that suboxone is an opiate blocker many people do not feel the "full" effect and do more in hopes they will, if this is the case please keep in mind it is still possible to overdose without fully feeling the effects. I have seen this happen to a friend of mine.

for sure the above post is very correct...i know someone who was on suboxone and did heroin and kept doing it cause he didnt feel it (because the sub was blocking the opiate receptors) and he od'd and died.....i wouldn't recommend it at all but if you must please wait until the sub is completely out of your system (like the above post says at least 36 hours) because you would have to do a lot to feel it and at that point it may be too much without even knowing it....be careful....and even then if you have been on sub your heroin tolerance may have gone down so don't do as much as you were used to.

After about 36 hours, you will be able to feel the effects of the heroin a little bit, but you won't be able to get a full-blown heroin high for at least 48 to 72 hours. If you don't take Suboxone regularly, however, the time frame will probably be a little shorter.

According to my doctor, if you have been taking saboxone for a long period of time you must wait 3 days to feel the opiate. If you have only been taking it for a few days than you have to wait until you are sick or you will get very ill.

You should wait as long as possible, at least 36 hours, before even attempting heroin. You're just wasting your drugs & money otherwise, those subs will make you frustrated indeed. I would recommend going a bit into withdrawal before you switch back.

Mixing suboxone and herion?

You will get very very sick do not do this and it is a waste of money as well because after taking suboxone your opiate receptor will be saturated, so not only will you get sick but you will not even feel the heroin.


Took one Suboxone at noon can I shoot heroin tomorrow?

Usually, after about 36 hours, you will be able to feel the heroin a little bit, but you won't be able to get a full-blown heroin high for about 48 to 72 hours. Since it seems that you aren't taking Suboxone regularly, however, the amount of time you have to wait will probably be a bit shorter.

No, you will get very sick.


Can you take suboxone after taking Oxycontin?

Not unless you feel like going into intense precipitated withdrawals and wanting to claw your eyes out. Trust me, don't do it. In fact, you need to wait at the bare minimum 12-15 hours after your last dose of heroin until you can take suboxone. You should really wait 24 hours though. You need to be in withdrawal from the heroin before the suboxone will work without making it ten times worse.


Your son is on suboxone and you suspect he is still using heroin is that possible?

If your son is truly taking his suboxone, he would not get high from Heroin so there would be o reason to do both. Suboxone has 2 medications in it, one that blocks many of the receptors that are aroused when we use opiates. the other is an opiate....the two medications fool the bran into believing it is getting its fix with out the patient feeling "high". I am not a Medical professional, I also am a recovering addict taking suboxone to help relieve me from the severe cravings that come after you stop taking opiates and also to treat back pain that i sustained in a work related injury.AnswerIts true if hes really taking the suboxone like hes supposed to, then using heroin would be a giant waste, but I use to sell my suboxone to get money for heroin. I was getting $20 for an 8mg pill and only taking it right before a doctors appointment so it would be in my system. Heres a tip my mother bough a home drug test kit, didnt tell me, and one day when she thought I was high pulled it out and told me to pee in the cup, I was mad, but she was right. It cost her $30 to find out the truth AnswerIt is possible to use heroin while taking suboxone, but it will take much more to get high. Its more likely that he is not taking the suboxone every day. If he is completely addicted to heroin (using multiple times per day), taking any suboxone will make him sick. Find a reputable opioid drug test, it should not respond to the presence of buprenorphine and metabolites in the urine, but it will for other opiates like heroin. ANSWERAs a recovering addict, I was prescribed to suboxone and was DEFINETLY still using heroin. I would sell most of them but keep a few for the days i couldn't afford heroin or couldn't get my butt out of the house, so either way i wasnt hurting. either i had my drug, or i had suboxone. home drug test, or administer the pills and do like a treatment center, make him put it under his tongue, then make him lift it to make sure its gone. you can still get high after using suboxone, but its almost pointless, takes alot more heroin, alot more money.yes you can use it, will you get high no. at best you will feel a 10 second rush, the reason for this is. suboxone has a very long half-life longer then almost all other opiates so even after taking an 8mg dose for example it will still be in your opiod receptors up to 2 later. so my advice to you, if you are on suboxone and you like to take vacations (getting high 1 or 2 days) wait atleeast 3 days after your last sub dose. goodluckThe suboxone will stop the heroin from working, and you will not get high. Also, if you are physically addicted to heroin and take suboxone (with a needle or even under the tongue), it will cause you to go into immediate withdrawl. This is one reason why suboxone is used to treat individuals who have been addicted to heroin and other opiates.Also, combining heroin and suboxone increases the chance of respiratory depression (a decreased rate of breathing). If respiratory depression is severe enough it can cause death.uhhhh yeah well some of that is correct. but its bullshit.if you use heroin or whatever you do, before. and then! take suboxone. you ll get sick. if you take suboxone and then take an opiate you probabaly wont feel it, but if you shoot it up. and you do a lot of it, which i dont recommend. youll still get high. especially later. find yoursdelf all nodding at dinner in your bowl of spaghetti. its highly danngerous. everyones body is different. have fun.Sure you can...if you wanna detox at least 5-7 days from the subs...get high on the dope..maybe...and then have to wait 36-48 hours to take a suboxone again...Ive been on suboxone for 3 years now...when you flip flop between the two it usually just makes you sick...plus you have to be in withdrawl from one drug to take the other...and with suboxone...you feel sick 4-5 days before its even out of your system...They devised the drug like that purposefully to reduce abuse...Pick one or the other...Personally...i choose suboxone..


How much mg of suboxone you must take when your amount of heroin is very little?

If you have the standard 8mg Suboxone, try cutting it into quarters. Take one quarter of Suboxone and wait about one hour. If you still feel crappy, try taking another quarter. Suboxone is strong, effective stuff! I was addicted to 80-120mg of Oxycontin and one quarter of Suboxone completely melted away my withdrawal symptoms. Good luck!


Will you feel percocet 10s the next day after taking one suboxone 8 the day before?

no the suboxone blocks the "high" feeling. if you are not going into withdrawal yet do not take suboxone as it will push you into full withdrawal and you will be sick. it should not be started until 12 hours into withdrawal.


Will an allergic reaction happen if you take heroin while you are on suboxone?

no ive done it but you wont feel anything unless u take alot


How long after taking a suboxone can you take an oxy and have its normal effects?

I can answer this question from personal experience. I'm a struggling recovering opiate addict and am now prescribed to Suboxone. I'm prescribed 4mg in the morning and 4mg in the early evening, so 8mg a day. I know that if I wait for 24 hours after taking my last dose of Suboxone I can feel about 60%-70% of the oxy. If I continue to do them, the amount that I am able to feel it goes up. After the third day of being off my Suboxone I can finally feel the oxy 100%.


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.


Can i take suboxone 8 hours after taking oxycodone?

That depends on whether you are taking the morphine recreationally (to get high), or if you are taking it for pain. If you are taking it to get high, then no, it won't work. You will have to wait at least 36 hours, but probably more like 48 to 72 hours, until the Suboxone is out of your system, before you can feel the effects of the morphine. If you are taking it for pain, then yes, it should still work as a painkiller, even though it won't get you high.
