460591 tn?1207150799 No, sorry. I meant, can my doctor who prescribes me suboxone test for the actual milligram count of suboxone in my system? Or just see if it's present?
Avatar n tn Thanks to all who responded about the Suboxone-blood sugar problem. It wasn't Suboxone but Seroquel, another drug prescribed "off label" to help me sleep. For those of you who don't know, Seroquel is a vile, nasty drug with very serious side effects including Diabetes. If you are taking this poison, do your homework by checking all of the articles on the web. Good luck.
Avatar f tn I'm not sure but you should see a doctor for a blood test because suboxone isn't safe in pregnancy its unsure what effects it has on an unborn child
Avatar f tn Ask to be given a blood test. They are much more accurate.
Avatar n tn Okay. Most medicine effects the liver. Suboxone included. Any increase in ALT levels usually indicates liver damage because the enzyme generally will spill into the blood only when there IS liver damage. I hope that helps. If you're concerned,go ahead and ask for a blood test. It's included in a standard panel.If there's any info about this particular drug and ALT levels it may be under hematology. But I don't know.
Avatar m tn Long time Suboxone user having some health problems. On 12mg for years. Kidney function starting to get bad, of course I wasnt told about it until I saw gfr level at 60 and the last gfr at 80. Dont think 60 was accurate but GFR is. Does Suboxone damage kidneys, if so why doesnt anyone tell us this as I would have never taken this crap. In the last 2 years i have been diagnosed with low test, diabetes 2, and now kidney probs.
Avatar f tn I ran out because I took an extra sub a few days. Which made me short. I was feeling crappie and anxious. I also don't know what the policy is. I do know my doctor is strict or at least feeling me out. I think this is why being honest is my best bet. I also don't have another doctor. I will have to look for one if he dropped me. I hope that's not the case. Everyone deserves a second chance, and since he wants to help people I hope he has a heart.
Avatar f tn suboxon can and does show up as an opiate on a drug screen however you have to specifically test for it, same with methadone, when i took someone close to me to get a drug test i was shocked that the professionals at a private doctors office that advertise drug screnings did not know that it took a specialty test, so we walked out and i went downtown to talk to an er doctor i used to work with, he gave my friend the test and sure enough suboxone was in her system, also when i was in a custody ba
Avatar m tn A physician may be able to prescribe you some Requip for the restless leg syndrome, Neurontin for agitation and malaise, and possibly something like Seroquel low dose for the insomnia. The good news is that by November 2nd it should not be picked up in the blood test any longer and I promise you will be feeling better and better every day. It may take months to actually feel great again.
Avatar f tn On most stardard drug tests, suboxone will not show up. You would have to specifically test for it. In the past, I was drug test several times when working in a hospital and it always came back clean.
Avatar n tn Just go to your dr and get a blood test.
190885 tn?1333025891 hey billy...is this girl in2 opiates and buying suboxone off street to try to get clean and avoid withdrawal from opiates?or is she just using the suboxone?if ur not an addict to use it alone u'll get real high off it and most likely real sick!
Avatar n tn I hear that those test can test pos for opiates even from poppy seeds. They also have a way to diferentuate between the poppy seed pos compared to the pain killer pos.
Avatar m tn the cardioligst test and the urology.and everytime i went to the hospital blood was takin and all cleared even urine. i constantly have upper back pains and neck pains and sometimes like pinches in my lower stomach.
239164 tn?1207263007 I am taking Suboxone - 12 mg./day. I suffered a fall recently and x-rays show a fractured vertebra and 3 dislocated vertebrae. Because of symptoms indicating nerve involvement my physician has ordered a closed MRI. I tried to do it on Wednesday of this past week and they didn't get me into the machine to my waist before I freaked out and insisted on being pulled back out. Unfortunately, because of the injury and my symptoms, the physician needs a closed MRI - the opening is a mere 21".
Avatar f tn Ask for a blood test. It is the most accurate. Are you looking to come off of Suboxone?
Avatar m tn Sub is hard on the Liver. If you or someone you know has been on a long time, a simple blood test for Liver Enzyme level could reveal a lot........
Avatar m tn I am a 33 year old woman who is currently in a Suboxone program. Before that, I was in a Methadone program for 4 years, at a dose of 130 mgs per day. I started the Suboxone in February. In June, I tested positive for Methadone. The doctor sent out the urine to be retested at a lab, and it was still positive. He dismissed this, and did not kick me out of the program. Now, in November, I tested positive again. I have not had any Methadone since February.
239164 tn?1207263007 t take them because, frankly, I was more terrified of being terrified and drugged!! I asked my Suboxone Doctor if it was okay to take them and his answer was "It should be okay." I called "Here to Help" and talked to a counselor and she didn't give me much reassurance that I would be okay taking the Valium. She did tell me that there are patients that are on Suboxone and Valium, though.
Avatar f tn You can ask to be retested, as DS said. They could do a blood test. If they retest your urine, be sure you hand it to a staff person and watch them label it with your name and initial it. It's a shame that people have to take all these precautions but mistakes happen all the time. I would insist on being retested because having a negative for Subs urine sample could mean you're diverting your medication. You want the record clear on that!
Avatar f tn I just started on suboxone and my doctor drug tests me regularly. The first test I took I tested positive for opiates, but the results said "inconsistent" next to it. When the test was taken, it had been 8 days since my last dose so nothing should've shown up. What does the "inconsistent" result mean?
Avatar f tn Hello people the purpose is to get you off opiates not give you more. When getting drug tested they must specifically test for suboxone if getting tested for a job or something like that they will most likely not give you the seperate test for it its very expensive but if being tested for the court or probation they 99% of the time test for it I know this bc I get drug tested by the court and have been tested for suboxone every single time.
1069625 tn?1262639524 I had a second antibody test done that same day and the results came back yesterday-inconclusive insufficent blood. it was a test done through the health dept, so instead of drawing blood from a vein they just pricked my finger and filled a circle on an index card lookin thing-i would assume to save money...i am going to have blood actually drawn tomororrow for a third test which will hopefully show something...either way.
