suboxone

Avatar m tn I am no doctor or anything but I also was on adderall for years until my addiction with pain medication took control of my life my suboxone doctor told me that adderall and suboxone taken together are like using cocaine and herion similar anyway. My suboxone doctor refused to prescribe the adderall until I had tapperd off the suboxone.
Avatar f tn I am now clean and sober and ISOLATED!!!! I do not get out of my house unless absolutely necessary. Now with the Epilepsy diagnosis I am in great need of getting back into life. I simply do not have the capabilities (emotional, physical,mental&spiritual) to function in the work force. My marriage is in shambles. My nest is empty. I absolutely have to get my life in order. I cannot work the way I am on an almost daily basis.
Avatar f tn Another question for you all I have been taking Adderall for the past 3 months I take 20mg twice a day, and my question is I went to the OB doctor yesterday and I told her I was on Adderall and suboxone and the other meds and she look at me and said "why would you doctor have you on adderall and suboxone at the same time? adderall is a stimulant and suboxone is to help you get of drugs? and I really didn't know what to say.
760131 tn?1238217597 But in my opinion I think you should stop using the adderall and when you feel mentally stable and grounded, taper off the suboxone. At this point 2 more months I dont think would significantly effect your physical detox. And as others have suggested, definitely get to as low of a dose as possible.
Avatar f tn Wow, this topic has gone all over with no one really referring to your post. I take suboxone and adderall. Four years on both and don't plan to stop. I have chronic pain from fibromyalgia, and did not do well on opana and adderall as I wound up directly in the mental ward. My life has completely changed since my first suboxone dose. My head is clear, memory coming back, I can get out of bed now.
Avatar f tn I was doing great with the Suboxone and never once touched an opiad since being on it. Please help me stop the Adderall. I truly appreciate everyone's advice and suggestions. Thank you for listening.
760131 tn?1238217597 the suboxone did wonders at first but then after a while i just started feeling more and more down. so when i got the adderall i was perscribed 10mg. twice a day to start and said she would see me back in a month. well its almost time to go back but ive been abusing it. taking anywhere from 40-60mg daily. i know that i dont need that much i guess its just the addict in me. but it does help. im not as depressed. im more patient with my kids.
621290 tn?1226720261 im on xanax, adderall, & suboxone... My pharmacist said I should try to avoid taking xanax & suboxone at the same time but its fine if there a couple hrs apart, & not to take them together at night time. Its hard on your heart/body when you take uppers & downers together.
Avatar f tn I have a family member who told me they are addictede to Suboxone and want to get off it. They have been on it for over 7 years now. When they don't have it, they become very ill. They say that they only use it to not get sick. However, I think they are also getting a euphoric feeling from it. Some days they barely will speak and others they are speaking non-stop, have a lot of energy and stay up late and maybe even all night.
Avatar m tn I actually just started the subs but my DOC is a drug called DHC which isn't well known in the US and I don't know if I should let myself get on suboxone for DHC. Most people take sub for Herion or oxy's and I don't really know how DHC compares, although I do take a rather large amount. I just don't want to get in deeper than I already am and deal with having to withdrawal off subs in 3 months to 3 years from now.
Avatar f tn I have called to see a psychiatrist and they will not see me because I am a suboxone patient and thats when I got upset and fed up. I honestly have never even taking adderall. So it's not like im doctor shopping. But I have read that my symptoms along with some other behavioral problems I thought maybe that would work. So my question(s) are, how do i go about seeing if a medication like adderall is for me? or just even asking the doctor without looking like an addict?
7416717 tn?1390769898 Does anyone take or has taken adderall with suboxone? My dr says no! The dr who gives me my adderall says that there is no problem with it. I have taken it for almost 20 years. My dr is not one of those pill pushers either. He is very concerned & cautious. When i had to change dr's because of a move, he lowered my dose from 30mg to 20mg. Im just wondering what any of your dr's out there are saying about adderall if any of you were on it.

460591 tn?1207150799 I just took 10 mg of Ritalin to help me study. I know this isn't good, but it's what I've chosen to do to read my 100+ pages before tomorrow. I was wondering if it is safe to mix 10 mg of Ritalin with 2mg of Suboxone? I don't think it will put my heart under a lot of stress... I know uppers and downers are bad to mix, but I don't think such a low dose should hurt anything... Anyone know for sure? Thanks.
Avatar m tn recovering drug addict with 3 years clean with the help of Paxil, Suboxone and Xanax. I'll prescribed by the same Doctor Who is aware of my past addiction issues. I myself wanted to cut out the benzo's and went for a proper diagnosis and sure enough my instincts were correct. Diagnosis: OCD, ADHD, ASD. The last is a new one called autism spectrum disorder in the old DSM-IV it would've been called Asperger syndrome.
Avatar f tn Is it safe to take 30mgs of adderall, 4-8mgs of Xanax and 4-6mg of suboxone a day?
Avatar f tn Hi perch101. I had a little scare a few days ago. I took some adderall and tramadol and started to feel really weird. I never had a seizure but I thought I might of been felling one come on. I got real dizzy,my face was tingly and my jaw was clenching up and painful. Could u tell me if u feel one come on and if yes what are the symtons? I have not taken tramadol since.
Avatar f tn I was clean and sober for 13 years, then relapsed on percocet. Got clean, but then my addiction doc recommended adderall. sincee then i'm taking more and more. now i'm taking at least 90 milligrams a day, along with clonopin and suboxone to calm down. i'm worse off than when i went to detox. and i don't know what to do. is it possible to gradually come off adderalll? oh, i also have ambien for sleep, which i don't abuse. the only one i abuse is the adderall.
Avatar m tn Hello everyone, I've been taking Suboxone, 24rmg, a day since 2006. I'm also being treated for depression for the past fifteen years and currently taking Trazadone, primarily for sleep, and Wellbutrin. About a month ago during one of my appointments with my psychiatrist she decided that I also have ADHD and has prescribed 30mg. of Adderall a day along with Ativan 1mg. a day for anxiety. She's aware of my addiction problem and that I'm taking Suboxone.
Avatar f tn I want to know the side effects of suboxone and ritalin together and by them self's
Avatar m tn re talking about. For a long time my drugs of choice were adderall and oxycontin, then adderall and heroin. I liked that they balanced eachother out and got super addicted to the combo of them. But yes, when I came off of them, I had severe depression. However, each day i stayed off of it got better. The thing is, I had to go to rehab or 12 step meetings for the support and teh community and so I was around other addicts who understood and so i made myself accountable to them.
Avatar m tn Marijuana use heavy for 15yrs(beat it) heavy pain med abuse was beat with suboxone and beat it(tough but I did) now adderall has become an issue. How much is this going to differ?
Avatar m tn Insurance companies do not have any idea what suboxone is and will pay for anything as long as its not the same. I used to get suboxone on the 4th and opana and oxy on the 7th and they never said a word or didn't pay. THANK GOD that is over. As far as the patch you are asking about I have never used it but it seems to be the same things suboxone because its a bupenorphine patch. And yes coming off at two mg would def have some pretty bad withdrawal.
Avatar m tn First, welcome back~ Is there some reason you found it "ok" to post "as yourself" back in 2011 and 2012 but now think you need some kind of "cover"? ALL of us are addicts here...we will NOT judge you, ok? Honesty HAS to come FIRST. You've been on the addiction merry-go-round for years....alcohol, pills, methadone, suboxone, now amphetamines. Isn't it time to get to the ROOT of why you are so afraid to live this life without a substance?
Avatar f tn Hi everybody! I was reading through the posts and comments. I just came home 2 days ago from rehab. I was only able to stay 1 night. My insurance would not cover my stay to detox due to the amount of suboxone I take a day. I tapered myself down to 2mg or less a day. I have been on suboxone for 5 years and adderall for 4 years. So here I am...day 3 detoxing at home. I haven't had any major symptoms yet. I'm just very anxious. I'm not sure what to expect. Has anybody been through this?
Avatar n tn I'm in my mid 30's, and a new friend that I met several months ago is always sneaking off to pop various pills - mostly she's got Adderall, Xanax, Alprazolam, Suboxone 8mg, lexapro, roxicet, and a few others that aren't in any packaging. What would be signs of abuse? Sometimes she seems very out of it altogether, and it can take her a long time to put her thoughts together & spit the words out, and other times she acts very normal. She drinks alcohol daily.
673186 tn?1225983925 I personally tried severalk times my first two years if college and I never had taken more than 30 ngs and that seemed like a very high dose and i gotwith very jittery and a huge efffect. A few months ago I was diagnosed with ADHD and instead of Adderall I tried Strattera knowing my addictive personality and past with drug abuse.
Avatar m tn A friend of mine has been clean now for about two months and has been taking Suboxone 3xdaily 8mg. And he said it has been an absolute life saver. Now he was taking 40 80mg Oxy's per day (No lie I have seen it he is lucky to still be alive) so I figure if he can do it then I definetly can. So March 31st 2008 at 7pm I took my last 40mg Oxy. The next morning my friend gave me 10 8mg Suboxone and told me to take one in the morning and one at night.
