How long after taking hydrocodone can you take suboxone?

Answer 1

depends on your body. most people will get technical and say "36 hour half life; blah blah." but actually if you've been on suboxone for awhile it could take up to 4-5 days(i know from experience). if you only took it once or twice than you should be ok after 24 hours. subutex will also block regular opiates because the buprenorphine has the highest affinity rate of ALL opioids. nalaxone isn't even the main reason you cant get high on suboxone; when suboxone is taken sublingually the bioavailability of nalaxone is almost nill. happy poppin' friends.

Answer 2

Hydrocodone has a halflife of 3.6-6hours.

You can do after say 3 halflives if you need it, but if youre using these for actual pain rather than recreationally you should seek other drug types than opioids if youre going to be on them for a long time, tricyclic antidepressants are good for that.

So anyway, say, 10.8-18hours after your last hydrocodone dose.
