Suboxone

Suboxone is a detox or maintenance medicine for people addicted to opiates. Questions should pertain to suboxone, or subutex, which is the same medicine without the opiate blocker.

970 Questions

Can suboxone get in your system by touching it?

No, suboxone cannot get into your system by touching it. This drug has to mix with your saliva or it won't be effective. You place it under your tongue for about 5 to 10 minutes until it dissolves.

The fastest way to get suboxone out of your system?

The only way to take Suboxone is to dissolve it under your tongue. Swallowing it won't work, because it won't dissolve in your stomach. And don't even think about crushing it up and snorting it or smoking it; it simply does not work that way. You can do that with heroin, and it sort of works with Vicodin and oxycodone, but not with Suboxone.

Furthermore, the maximum amount of Suboxone you can take at one time is 32 milligrams (four 8-mg pills). Taking any more than that will have no effect, so don't even try: it's just a waste of expensive medication.

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.

What health ins covers copays for suboxone?

I have Blue Cross Blue Shield of Mississippi and just found out they cover it. See the funny thing is, doctors are gonna tell you they dont take insurance because they dont make as much money making claims with insurance companies. THEY ARE LIARS!!! If you go to the doctor and they say no, call your insurance company to see. Sometimes the insurance company will reimburse you if the doctor wont take insurance. I have spent thousands of dollars over 3 years of being on suboxone to just find out i could have saved that money!!!!

Can you take and antidepressant while on suboxone?

"Yes. Antibiotics, in general, are not contraindicated in those taking opioid based medications. (Just make sure that you have not previously had an allergy to the particular antibiotic being described.) As always, check with your prescribing physician first.

This is completely wrong. Please do not take this single and uneducated answer as carte blanche to take them freely together.

Sourcing directly from the leaflet that comes with a Suboxone 8/2 prescription I will relay a passage that should be of use to you:

Some products may interact with this medication include

narcotic antagonists (such as baktrexibe), certain narcotic

pain medications (mixed narcotic agonist-antagonist such as

butorphanol, nalbuphine, pentazocine [, buprenorphine.])

Other medications can affect the removal of buprenorphine

from your body, which may affect how buprenorphine works...

Examples include azole antifungals (e.g. ketoconazole), HIV

medications..., marcolide antibiotics(such as erythomycin),

rifamycins (e.g. rifabutib), St. John's wort, drugs used to treat seizures (e.g. carbamazepine, phenytoin), among others. The

risk of serious side effects (slow/shallow breathing, severe

drowsiness, dizziniess) may be increased if this medication is taken with other products that may also affect breathing or

cause drowsiness...[anxiety medications: benzodiazepines,

primarily, including Xanax (alprazolam), Klonopin

(clonazepam), Valium (diazepam), anti-seizure drugs,

sleeping aids, or narcotics (hydrocodone/oxycodone), and

psychiatric medicines (such as risperidone, amitriptyline,

trazadone).

Please folks, use extreme caution... Cipro is not just some antibiotic like Amoxicillin... These drugs are quinolone antibiotics and they are essentially a poison, without getting too technical. They prevent the bacteria from replicating their DNA. I had a terrible experience taking just one tablet in conjunction with no other drugs or interactive foods; it is a miracle for some, though!

Can you take Suboxon for 5 days and still have withdraws?

Probably not from the Sub, but you probably will have w/d's from the drugs you took that required you to be on Sub. All the Sub did was prolong your withdrawal for 5 days. Now if your taking Subs for 5 days recreationally, and had no dependence problem prior, then your probably safe.

Does suboxone show IN urine or mouth swap test?

Yes it does - depending on the type/no. of panel test being taken. Either way if the test is sent to a lab for further testing then Suboxone and anything else will also show up in the results.

Will Suboxone show on a urine drug screen?

Suboxone and Drug ScreensSuboxone does in fact show up in drug screens as an opiate.

Suboxone is prescribed to help addicts with the physical withdrawal symptoms of opioids. Suboxone eliminates the physical withdrawal symptoms, but it does not eliminate the mental or emotional withdrawal symptoms. But it in the long run, it does help with that somewhat as it decreases the cravings for narcotics.

Suboxone is an opiate in itself. It has to be or else it couldn't stop the withdrawal symptoms. The active ingredient in Suboxone is buprenorphine.

Buprenorphine is a partial opioid agonist. Other narcotics are full opioid agonist; thus, its opioid effects are limited. Suboxone also contains naloxone which is an opioid antagonist. The naloxone discourages users from injecting it, because when injected it enters the bloodstream quickly and causes a withdrawal. When dissolved under the tongue as directed, the naloxone enters the bloodstream very slowly so the patient feels the effects of the buprenorphine.

And that is how Suboxone can treat opioid dependency while being an opioid in itself. I know in the beginning that sounds kind of ridiculous but many people find success in Suboxone treatment.

This statement is not correct.

Just like Methadone, Suboxone is an opioid but they do not show up in urine drug tests as an opiate.

I have been taking Methadone for 6 months and have to drug test regularly. Absolutely nothing shows up in my system.

Will you get sick taking suboxone and methadone?

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.

Can Celexa test positive for suboxone?

No, anti-depressants are NOT opiates. Opiates include morphine, percocet, vicodin(hydrocodone), oxycodone(oxycontin), fentynal, roxycodone, methadone, suboxone or subutex, oxy and hydromorhphone, codeine, ect..

Where can you get help paying for your suboxone prescription?

The Suboxone Patient Assistance Program, from the pharmaceutical company that manufactures the Suboxone medication themselves, Beckett Renckiser. You can contact Beckett Renckiser at 1-888-898-4818 and ask them about the Suboxone Patient Assistance Program.

I know this because I have went through this process before but the Addiction Specialist that I was seeing used an insurance company that would not allow Beckett Renckiser or any pharmaceutical company for that matter to send medications directly to his office. And that is how this Assistance Program works.

What is meloxocam?

NSAID generally for rheumatics's

Can you take Darvon with suboxone?

No. The suboxone will stop the darvocet from working.

Also, combining darvocet and suboxone could cause respiratory depression (a decreased rate of breathing). If respiratory depression is severe enough it can cause death.

How long will withdrawal symptoms from suboxone last?

Suboxone takes about 2-5 days for the worst part of the symptoms to go away, and a couple weeks for mild symptoms to deminish. It kinda sucks cuz I'm actually goin through it right now. Today is my third day and i decided to snort about .25 mg to take away the chills. Its not that bad though, I've definetly been through allot worse having been through withdrawls from herion, cocaine, and alchahol. Not all at once of course, I've taken each one to the limit many times in the past 4 years. Pretty crazy sein how I'm only 18 yrs. old. I swear i know almost everything about drugs. And trust me i know that's not cool at all. I really hate drugs, they just seem to like me allot for some reason. but ya my fingers hurt so i hope i was a little bit of help. If you have any other questions about suboxone or ne thing else feel free to ask. Peace.

I have been on suboxone for 2 yrs and recently went off it. I quit it on a Monday, and didn't notice anything for a few days, then the withdrawls kicked in. I was depressed, with diarreah, and cold and hot sweats and an overall feeling of pure exaustion. It's been a little over a week now and I'm slowly feeling better each day. I still can't stay asleep though. I thought the suboxone was a wonderful drug to get me off my lortab addiction, but they always told me there wouldn't be any withdrawl with the suboxone. They lied.

How long does 4mg suboxone strip last?

you should wait about 48 hours. But you should never take opiates for recreational use, because you could become severely addicted and jeopardize your financial/emotional stability and inter-personal relationships.

Keep in mind that the metabolisation of subs also depends on frequency of use, be it habitual, sparsley or barely ever at all. The more frequently you take it, the longer it tends to build up in your system (i.e. if you never take subs and do 4mg, it will likely stay in your system anywhere from twelve to twenty-four hours).Also, the effects of the subs tend to taper off the more time its in your system.

Is mixing Adderall and suboxone dangerous?

Yes it is !

and here is a story i wrote in English at school today: (got an excellence)

He stood out on the deck, mesmerised. The ocean glistened in the sunlight, shining the most brilliant blue. But the wall of water was looming closer and closer. He couldn't move his legs, or his mouth. Frozen. Inside his head, He knew if he had any chance of survival he had to run - now. He was terrified. Because although it looked too beautiful to be dangerous, it was going to destroy everything and everyone.

There was no time to save any possessions, there was barely enough time to save himself. He leapt out the back door and sprinted away down the street, as far away from the ocean as possible. Puffing, out of breath, he stole a quick glance over his shoulder. The wave was catching up on him. His foot caught on the uneven pavement, and his head was smacked against the path. A hot trickle of blood ran down over his eyes. His head was thumping and his vision became cloudy. He stumbled to his feet, but too late. The wave was upon him. This was the end.

He took a deep breath and then the water enveloped him. The air he had just inhaled was punched out of him. He was being crushed by the powerful rush of water. He thrashed around trying to find something to anchor himself to the ground with. Nothing. The washing machine water was throwing him around. He felt helpless, which was not a feeling a strong man was normally supposed to feel. He was washed away as if he was a piece of driftwood. There was nothing he could do about it. He was trapped beneath the surface of the ocean.

As the water started to settle he looked up and saw a glimmer of sunlight reflecting on the surface. But the light was too far away. He was too weak to fight, and he couldn't hold on any longer. His lungs were empty, he had nothing left. As water started to seep inside of him, he let go of everything. Slowly, slowly he sank to the bottom.

Is it safe to inject suboxone?

I was on suboxone for a year before I got pregnant with my son. My doctor told me that withdrawling off of the drug while pregnant could potentially kill the fetus due to the stress it would be under while detoxing. He also said it was unknown what would happen when he was born anad that I had a 50/50 shot of either him being ok, or having symptoms of withdrawl. So the question I had to ask myself is whether I would perfer to lose my chold due to the stress of coming of, or potentially havinga sick child for a couple of days. The choice was obvious to myself, and I sstayed on the medication. My son ended up staying in the NICU for 14 days. I was monitored like a hawk throught the whole pregnancy by my doctors and he was a healthy weight and a heathy baby although of the minor struggle he had at birth. I felt as though it was all my fault, but he is perfectly normal, healthy, and in the end he turned out to be perfect. I think although it was hard that I made the right decision and as long as you are under constant supervision everything will end up okay. The withdrawl was not nearly as bad as say other newborns withdrawling on the hard core drugs, you just have to let all doctors be completely aware of what is going on at all times. I hope this helps and that anyone that has to make this very difficult decision. For me the choice was easy. I have a beautiful healthy child that I might not have if I had chosen to come off it while pregnant. Good luck mommies.

How soon after taking an opiate can you take Suboxone?

I HAVE BEEN TAKING SUBOXONE FOR ABOUT TWO YEARS NOW AND ALTHOUGH IN MY OPINION IT IS THE BEST PILL EVER INVENTED, THERE ARE TIME IN WHICH YOU WILL NEED TO TAKE PAIN MEDICATION FOR SURGERIES, TOOTHACHES, CAR ACCIDENTS, ETC.

ANYONE WHO ATTEMPTS TO TAKE ANYTHING BEFORE IS WASTING THEIR TIME. THANK YOU

do not snort suboxone, it will not get you high, it is designed to really only work if taken sublingually. Plus that would hurt very bad, trust me just let it dissolve under your tongue or you won't feel anything.

What happens if you take Oxycontin while going through suboxone withdrawals?

No, you will not go into withdrawls, however, it would be a waste of Diluadid since Suboxone is an opiod-blocker and keeps you from getting high off of any opiate. But if you were taking Dilaudid and then immediately began taking Suboxone, THAT would cause you to go into withdrawls.
