Common Questions and Answers about Can i take suboxone with ultram

suboxone

Avatar n tn First I would strongly urge you NOT to take the Ultram to deal with suboxone withdrawal or any withdrawal for that matter. Ultram has the same or worse wd as any other painkiller plus there are other more scary risks associated with using it and withdrawal from it. As far as the sub goes - how long have you taken it? How many mgs are you on? How fast of a taper? Some people do not suffer wd when tapering down on subs. Most of us have had severe wd when jumping off completely.
372880 tn?1332879487 t seem to make the leap of knowing I need to stop the pills and actually stopping them... I take ultram 8/day and when I have them Norco 10's 6 or so a day. I'm tired of being a slave to the stuff, feeling like a bad mom,wife, the embarrasement of trying to fill Rx's early ALL THE TIME. I ask my self if something really bad is going to have to happen before I wise up? I don't even know who I am without the pills...I lack the motivation and commitment to do it.
Avatar f tn A few months ago I had to get some serious dental work done and I explained to my dentist that I could not take narcotics and so he prescribed me Ultram. To make a long story short, the withdrawal symptoms that I feel when I am out of Ultram are far worse than I felt with Lortab, Percocet, etc. I tried suboxone for these withdrawals and felt completly wiped out and dizzy. I thought Ultram was safe and non-addictive. Apparently I thought wrong.
Avatar n tn I was addicted to percocet, tapered down to lortab, then got off those with Ultram. I was highly addicted to stupid Ultram/ Tramadol which was told to me by my doctor that it was not addictive. Well, my tolerance level went from 8 a day to 30-40 daily. My NEW doctor since December put me on Suboxone. 2 of the 8-2mg daily. I've tapered down to one daily sometimes still 2. But its been 3 months now. I have no insurance & I am unemployed. I have about 10 left.
Avatar f tn Gosh, I hope she can do something or i can take something ! I am soooo nervous and excited at the same time about my appt!!!
Avatar f tn I hope that your Suboxone Doctor made you aware of the fact that your tolerance levels will be increase significantly by taking buprenorphine for tramadol withdrawal. I'm not saying that it isn't necessarily indicated, but in this case you're bumping your tolerance a great deal, and it will be much harder to come off of. Also, it will not decrease the antidepressant withdrawal effects from the Tramadol..only an antidepressant will do that (which can take weeks to kick in).
Avatar m tn I take Suboxone for pain due to too many past problems with addiction. I'm wondering If I could take Trammadol at night, long after I have taken my last dose of Suboxone? Since Trammadol is NOT an opiate, would there be any adverse effects? I've read some questions and answers in this forum and people are talking about Trammadol as it is a Opioid, which it IS NOT! Anyone who is in the know on this question know any answers to this?
Avatar f tn I quit 120-150mg roxis ct. I did take 5mg the first day. I dont count that day. I do have two weeks. If this 34 going on 35 year old addict can make it you can. Dont wait for tomorrow. Were not promised that.
Avatar f tn The thing is I can function like I did before I used drugs this happened over a 3 yr time span. I have been trying to play it down and say its just ultram because I feel like such an awful person : (. It seems like I need this amt. of pills to just feel normal!! The real prob. is I am about 7 weeks pregnant maybe a little more. I had NO IDEA, I wasnt trying to get pregnant. I want this baby and I want to stop. The Dr. says suboxone. I have heard mixed reviews on this. I know from prev.
372880 tn?1332879487 why did u take lortabs with suboxone? isnt that dangerous , to be mixing suboxone with opiates. But I think u will have to want to stay off the ultrams . besides if it has been 2 weeks u probably have already went through most of the bad withdrawls .
Avatar f tn I have no experience with switching, but I do have experience with them in general. Could you try tapering the tram and not have to go back on sub? Might keep you from having to continue to go back and forth?? That can't be very fun! I know all about exchanging one bad drug for another, and it's NOT good! Good luck!!!
372880 tn?1332879487 i did the maintenance program and it worked great, but for youre addiction i would think you would be fine for a month long detox tapering schedule with suboxone that would be youre best bet...
Avatar n tn people suffer from suboxone and subs more than ultram. thats a fact. i also know firsthand about ultram. i was on it for years and it helped me. of course its addicting, but what isnt. nothing! its all addicting and bad for us. thanks 4 sharing.
1728764 tn?1310169433 Today I told my docI was addicted to ultram after being on them for 6 months and needed help I asked him if suboxone is the best thing cause I am taking to many ultams a day like almost ten ,I told him I am done with that medication and to please help me cause I have ran out to early and that is not good plus my back pain has been alot better and I am not going to take ultram anymore do you think he will atleast give me suboxone to not go through withdraws cause he never called me back yet sinc
Avatar m tn Reduce Suboxone to 4mg day 1st week Reduce Ultram to 2-tabs/day 1st week Work out aerobics - 1/2x day - sweat and more sweat 1-glass of red wine around supper (I have no problem with alcohol) Starting week 2, only take Suboxone every other day with 1-Ultram Does anyone see this plan working? Is Ultram also wicked to stop or are all the sweats, anxiety, frustration.... caused from the Suboxone?? Did anyone ever use Clonidine and did it help???
372880 tn?1332879487 It cracks me up that they can take my 100. and not even councel/see me....I have cut off my norco/ultram supply and am working weekly w/ a social wker. I am scared sh**less about the WD from sub. I see I am going in the wrong direction. I don't like how it makes me feel but I like it a lot better than full on WD. This last month I have been very depressed which I'd love to blame on the sub but who knows? my anxiety is also through the roof.
Avatar f tn m looking for is other peoples experiences with suboxone??? I just think I am doing so great and I am so happy I feel like this monkey is about to be off my back but in the back on my mind I know I'm far from done with this struggle.
558096 tn?1255887002 So, my primary care Dr knows I am on sub. I have a really bad UTI, and she said it would be ok for me to take Ultram, while On suboxone, b/c it's non-opiate............but I wanted to make absolutely sure first. So, is it ok to take Ultram while on Sub?
Avatar m tn Reduce Suboxone to 4mg day 1st week Reduce Ultram to 2-tabs/day 1st week Work out aerobics - 1/2x day - sweat and more sweat 1-glass of red wine around supper (I have no problem with alcohol) Starting week 2, only take Suboxone every other day with 1-Ultram Does anyone see this plan working?

405201 tn?1201775709 I took one on my first day, and for some reason i was brave and have only taken 2, and now im on day 17...let me tell you, I FEEL LIKE ****. Can i just randomly take my suboxone even though i havnt been!? And how much!?
Avatar m tn (1) Could I take Tramadol/Ultram for back pains I have. I don't now whether or not that type of pain killer would have an effect on me or my Suboxone treatment.. (2) Also, any one who has been on Suboxone like me and is trying to tapper off, or has completely gotten off of it all together. I would like to ask if you had any withdrawl symptoms or negative reactions because of Suboxone reduction. Any info on this will be greatly appreciated...
Avatar m tn and I wouldn't take the ultram, jmo. The clonidine should help you sleep.
1032898 tn?1258598707 I know. I live with chronic pain but there are other things you can do. Anything to stay away from the pills!
Avatar f tn 4-8mg a day as the docter told me to take two..its for my endometrosis. Like I said I thought I was taken something safe...will I experience withdrawal? Thank you for any responses...I really need them to keep my strength..this has been a long road for me and I thought I finally won the battle and now Im afraid I messed that up..Suboxone seemed like a Godsend in helping me get off of my 20-30 10-15mg percs and 80mg oxys a day habit.
Avatar f tn But you are doing good I think you are telling on yourself. I take suboxone so it helps most of any pain I ever had. I am for what ang 811 says maybe someone could hold the rest so you don't take them wrong. That is what recovering is about not abusing. Good Luck to you and I hope you get to feeling better. I am proud of you for telling the truth up front.
Avatar m tn Im not sure what ultram is but I bo know xanax and wellutrin can be taken together. I take zoloft and occasionally zanax with it. Is there someone close to u that can slap your hand and give u one pill at a time to ween off. I tell u I think getting rid of the meds and cold turkey work better. I tried to ween but It was torture and could never get under 4 a day. so when I was out my family helped me alot, I couldnt of done it by myself.
397118 tn?1219762250 If your doc giving you the Sub is a good pain management doctor too, they should have alternatives to Ultram. Again, with your history, I would be very, very careful. I don't know the nature of your pain, so it's hard to say. But do all you can before you jump back on any pills... that's the only thing I can suggest, if your pain level can tolerate it. Again - this soon, it very well could seem worse as it may be rebound pain... which should soon get much, much better.
