(I just copied and pasted this answer from a question I answered regarding mixing Suboxone with Xanax. Xanax and Valium are both from the same family of drugs, benzodiazepines, and the advice is the same)
It's not very easy to answer because it depends on the dose of each drug and how far apart they were taken, among other things, but it can last longer than 24 hours.
Mixing these two drugs is VERY dangerous and you should contact a doctor immediately if you have done so.
I took Valium whilst taking subutex, to help with sleep and anxiety while withdrawling. Worked wonders. Be careful not to end up with another addiction though.
Can I take doxycycline while I am on suboxone
why cant you eat grapefruit while taking suboxone
Eating grapefruit while taking Suboxone (a medication used to treat opioid addiction) can increase the levels of buprenorphine in the bloodstream. Grapefruit inhibits certain enzymes in the liver, specifically CYP3A4, which are responsible for metabolizing buprenorphine. This can lead to enhanced effects and potentially increase the risk of side effects or overdose. It’s important to consult with a healthcare provider about dietary restrictions when taking Suboxone.
If you are a chronic Suboxone user, there will be little to no side effects if you drink alcohol, except you might get sleepier than you normally would. After I quit heroin and started taking Suboxone, I became a raging alcoholic. I was drinking a liter of vodka a day, on top of my Suboxone. However, Suboxone is bad for your liver, and so is alcohol, so drinking while you're on Suboxone is very hard on your liver.
Yes you can smoke marijuana while on suboxone or subutex. I have been on suboxone and subutex for 3 years and I dont think I have missed more then 5 days of smoking weed. For me weed will actually take away any withdrawal effects that are creeping up from the subutex.
Yes.
Yes you can take codeine suryp while taking suboxone! I do it all the time! It does not send you into w.d's it really works! So yes
I suppose so, if you take massive doses of them, but not if you're taking a normal dose. I was prescribed klonopin for alcohol withdrawal, while I was taking Suboxone.
Sure, but it won't have much effect.
Because benzodiazepines are not opiates. They are...benzodiazepines. Suboxone only blocks the effects of opiate drugs. Although, you should be careful taking benzodiazepines (Valium, Xanax) with Suboxone. As they are both depressants, taking too much of them together could cause an overdose. Actually, you can even take opiates while you are on Suboxone. You won't be able to get high on them, but they will still work as painkillers (although you might have to double your dosage of the painkiller). A couple of years ago I had a root canal and they gave me Vicodin for it, but I had to take double doses of the Vicodin, and cut my Suboxone dose in half, in order to get enough relief from the pain.
while taking the drug suboxone,i showed positive on a drug test two times aproximately a week apart ,for methamphetamines.
