Common Questions and Answers about Suboxone and dilaudid

suboxone

Avatar n tn If you have a opiate habbit and take suboxen you can go into precipitated withdrawl from the sudden flushing of the opiate receptors. If you do not have a habit and take dilaudid and suboxen at the same time, the suboxen will beat the morphine to the receptors and completely block them from the morphine getting into them. You will not feel anything from the dilaudid.
Avatar f tn My boyfriend is in the hospital right now and they gave him dilaudid...he has an addiction to dilaudid already and the dosws they gave him.are far less.than what he was taking...this has actually neen somewhat of a blessing to us both because with such low doses he feels he has a better chance of stopping. His only concern is taking the suboxone too early...and of course he does not want to wait and suffer either. So how long should he wait?
Avatar m tn My son relapsed using a lot of dilaudid. He got suboxone to help with withdrawals but when looking at pictures online I am confused. The pills he got are small round white pills with no imprints on either side. Does anyone know which brand name this might be?
Avatar n tn methadone is cheap and the exalgo and suboxone are both EXPENSIVE! 16mg of exalgo daily for 30days is $600 without insurance here in nebraska! where methadone is like $15 dollars a month. I liked methadone alot for pain management very little withdrawl symptoms but I ended up with a fatal heart arrythmia because of the methadone. I would slip into PVC's premature ventricular contractions which can lead to ventricular fibbrilation which leads to death!!
Avatar m tn The above answer is a pretty good reponse, the 8 mg. dilaudid. The doc here will probably respond that you should take suboxone.
Avatar f tn So. I took a suboxone 8mg/2mg it said on the package and it did nothing to help my detox symptoms and I am so ashamed to say this but I just took 1/1/2 dilaudid's which I have been addicted to for yrs, My question is will either of them work?
Avatar n tn You cant take pain pills then a subutex or suboxone. Who told you to do that? Subutex and suboxone are to be used when coming off opiates and you must wait from the time of your last use of opiates and wait until your in withdrawal and wait until u cant take it anymore then you take the subutex and youll feel better in less than an hour.
407807 tn?1235060636 I am going to the doctor today.He prescribed my the dilaudid and valium last month and wanted me to begin it then.It has been a month and I still have not.Something in me keeps telling me this makes no sense.I do belive if I was in a controlled environment ..maybe this approach could work but I have battled addiction my entire life and have come a long way from using dope 10 yrs ago ,to methadone for 8 yrs,and from 28mgs of sub down to my current 1.5-2 mgs of subs.
Avatar m tn I was shooting dilaudid and morphine for 4 months. I started suboxone 5 days ago and honest to God I haven't even thought about the drugs! It's a miracle medication and it's tightly regulated by the Dr. Going cold turkey off the hard stuff can be done but suboxone help you to stay sober long term. Also get therapy to find out why you turn to drug addiction in the first place. Hope this helps!
1235210 tn?1268244064 oh and if Im right suboxone is used to help someone get OFF opiates without withdrawals right? if so then it was a good move as long as she wasn't abusing it.
585134 tn?1218579114 the withdrawal is horrible and i have to work to support my family so ive put it off as long as i can, i took last week off to try and quit and i didnt use dilaudid for several days, i had 18 vicodin 5mg and i tried to kick with them but it didnt take so ive used just a few dilaudid and now ive got some more vicodin(35-5mg pills) and im attempting to quit again, i dont have any support because it seems everyone thinks i should be able to kick this in 2 or 3 days but the withdrawal goes on and o
Avatar f tn I know when I had my daughter 3 years ago they had me taking subutext and oxycodone at the same time. And I was al given dilaudid during my c-secion.
Avatar f tn Please help...I've decided to go off my pain meds and go on subutex and suboxone. So im on my second day of fentanyl 100mcg patch and dilaudid withdrawals. It's really bad already. Any suggestions how do you really know when your in full withdrawal. Before you start your subutex. Any and all advice would be appreciated.
Avatar f tn I can't follow your original post. Are you taking both Diluadids and Suboxone and/or wanting to? Like TrayCee said, Suboxone's is primarily used for withdrawal. Are you seeing two different doctors?
Avatar n tn This afternoon I had to level with my doctor and tell him that I had taken too many and I was sick and needed help. Having come out and told my doctor of my feelings was a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. He agreed to write new presecriptions for Oxycontin and Diladid though he was reluctant and extremely disappointed. My story begins with the fact that I have had 10 back surgeries. Seven surgeries last year alone.
868038 tn?1239503145 I have Lupus and fibromyalgia and live my life in chronic pain. Although I take Norco for the Lupus pain and dilaudid for my severe migraines they don't work for me was well as I know they should anyone else have this problem?
Avatar m tn d start feeling withdrawal symptoms for the last 24 and into the next patch for a few hours. And the dilaudid for breakthrough....I was feeling like I was in a constant state of pain and discomfort, so I basically took the dilaudid 4 times/day. I decided that I needed to make a change, but I could not stand the withdrawal symptoms, or the pain...I was very lucky to get into one of the very few pain management doctors in my area...
199177 tn?1490498534 s if youve gone CT that can last over two months, methadone is a little harder to taper off of than suboxone but suboxone isnt a miracle drug and is still addictive and still is hard to get off of and has very harsh wd's if you taper too fast...they both just alst along time, methadone 24-36hrsd. and suboxone's half-life on average is 37hrs. so it usually last two days..so wds wont show until about 5 days after the last time it was taken...
1337425 tn?1278173987 I had severe chronic pain and went through ALL the opioids...morphine kadian,fentanyl dilaudid (all in HIGH doses!)...and NOTHING worked until I was put on a low dose of methadone. My pain was gone, I felt NO high whatsoever and , unlike the other opioids I felt no urge to up my dosage for over 3 years. HOWEVER...It is not only EXTREMELY addictive, the withdrawals make heroin withdrawals feel like a a light cold with sniffles.
Avatar n tn have an addiction to percocet but have been doing well..Started taking suboxone a year ago..Came off 1/4 of a 2mg and was feeling pretty bad with withdrawls ..to my surprise!! I was told the small dosage I was on, I would feel very lil wd's.. yeah right! anyway i read somewhere that taking percocet will help with the wd's..i know..STUPID!! So I took percocet 4 a week, and 2 pills 4 x a day.. of 10/325.. Now tis is 48 hours and I am in terrible wd's!!
995438 tn?1251758280 t do this by myself and I need lots of help, so i looked up doctors that do the Suboxone program and after calling about 20 doctors I finally found a place with no waiting list and that would accept my insurance and went in the next day. I know Suboxone may be abused and people may get high off it but I can say for myself that it doesn't get me anywhere near how I felt while taking 30 Vicodin a day.
7857462 tn?1394795639 ll still be in a lot of pain as she has been slowly reducing the amount of dilaudid now and I have mobility pain and really bad leg pain at night. What I want to know is if there is a medication I can take in it's place for my pain and to ease withdrawal symptoms? I can't take methadone, had bad reaction to it years ago.
Avatar f tn He weaned me of lyrica, MSR and dilaudid in 4 weeks. I am down to oxycontin 10mg bid and Dalmane 30mg at night. However he did start me on amytriptoline 20mg at night which actually made me pain free for the first time in months. I have gone through severe depression, restless legs each time my dosage has been lowered and all the other ugly stuff. What really anger's me is that I was whacked on such big doses so quickly. It completely ruined my life and made me an addict.
1659111 tn?1302459251 hi and welcome, it seema as if you are starting your withdrawal, but you will get through it, i personally wouldnt take the suboxone, i think thats just another drug to come off, and is addictive, get as low as you can with the dilaudid, and keep posting, we can help you through the withdrawal, make sure you drink plenty of fluids , get some imodium for any stomache problems, , you can do it, god bless
Avatar n tn dilaudid is an extremey powerful drug-8x more potent than morphine and 3 to 4x more than heroin-Im 22 and have been on and off oxy, methadone, dilaudid, morphine, fentanyl, etc. and just about every other drug known since i was 17.....None of which were for pain.....STAY FAR, FAR AWAY if you can....made a mistke of doing dilaudid iv for the first pain killer i did and that was 05".....still fighting the battle.....it led to the worst drug addiction over the past four to five years....
Avatar f tn I successfully got off of Suboxone after about a month and half being on it-I had been taking Norco, Dilaudid, Kadian. On the 8th day I felt almost back to normal and then I got into an accident and got horrible headaches. I took 3 Norco and a few days later 2. It has been about a week now and I feel like if I don't take the 2 Norco a day-WD. Should I go back on Suboxone or just taper the Norco.
