Common Questions and Answers about Suboxone and seroquel

suboxone

Avatar n tn 7 weeks ago he went on Suboxone and started to take about 4 mg of klonopin and 50 mg of valium along with 50 mg of seroquel. 5 weeks ago, the doctor started weaning him off the klonopin and changed him from seroquel to trazodone. ( the valium was never prescribed..he just took that on his own ). On his own, he decided to increase his klonopin dosage and add seroquel back to his regimen.
Avatar n tn I have heard of people switching from Methadone to Suboxone. It really needs to be done under a doctors care. I think you have to be below 30 mg and stop taking the Methadone for almost 5 days. I was prescribed Seroquel while on Suboxone. All of these drugs are super strong, so please do this under a doctors care.
Avatar f tn Seroquel is one of the 'atypical antipsychotics' that came out about ten years ago. They were first used for serious mental illness like schizophrenia, and then for bipolar disorder, and then for the thing we 'call' bipolar in children, that really isn't bipolar disorder.
Avatar n tn I've been prescribed and taking Suboxone for approximately 30 days and have noticed a significant increase in my blood glucose level. I've asked my pharmacist for her opinion but she knows very little about the topic. I haven't asked my shrink yet but will at my next appointment. In the meantime, this has me spooked. Anyone know???
Avatar n tn Just wondering, what are the effects of Suboxone, Seroquel and Klonopin? He is on 12 mg of suboxone daily, and is prescribed 2 mg of Klonopin but he is abusing that already and taking about 20 mg of the klonopin. I am not overly worried, just because he was taking about 350 mg of valium a day before going on the sub a month ago, but of course there is some concern. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Avatar f tn I was on seroquel. It was awful. I was mean WHEN i did awake. the doctor put me on 300mg and I had to sleep a full day on it. So they lowered it but then i slept a 1/2 day so then they put it on 50 and I wouldn't sleep and when I slept I was mean as ever. So I no longer take seroquel. its not good for me.
1575129 tn?1296004646 i was put on suboxone 2 years ago and i have been told by my pain management doctor that it does not work for fm but when i am off of it i have no energy and i can't get out of bed,but when i get back on it i am like a totally different person.i don't know what to do to get another doctor to put me back on it.any suggestions??
Avatar m tn i don't know what Seroquel is. Why don't you call your doc? And why were you on Suboxone for so long? And I thought that the Sub is supposed to help with WDs? I don't understand what is going on? But you sound like you should call an advice nurse. I'm sorry I can't help!!!
Avatar f tn And congratulations on being 2 months clean, but ditch the seroquel! try some melatonin tablets, over the counter!
Avatar f tn See if your doctor can write you a prescription for some Requip for restlessness, Neurontin for anxiety and malaise, some Flexeril or Soma for a few weeks for muscle spasms and maybe some Seroquel low dose, for sleep and Klonopin which will be helpful for sleeplessness and anxiety. It will make your withdrawals easier. Valerian and Magnesium is sometimes helpful remedies over the counter. The residual symptoms of insomnia and depression can last another few months.
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 re doing more harm than good as you are jacking your way up because suboxone is so so strong and going back to using roxies right after suboxone will cause you to feel withdrawal symptoms again because the suboxone blocks out other opiates until it is out of your system the half life of Suboxone don't quote me on this more in the range of 36hours which means I was very long and severe withdrawal from suboxone if you were using it as a means to an end to stop taking opiates as an addiction a
Avatar m tn s a merry-go-round and no time like the present to get off and stay off. Besides, unless the Suboxone is prescribed by a doctor and the complete program is followed, it is dangerous to play around with it. If you go cold turkey, the physical withdrawal will be basically over by the weekend. Do you think you can do that? We can help you with moral support and suggest some things that can ease the withdrawal. Stick around, this is a great place for support. P.S. Howdy neighbor!!

Valerian and Magnesium is sometimes helpful remedies over the counter.
Avatar m tn Ironically, I just left my family doctor and he prescribed me seroquel and librium...so Im hopeful tonight is the lucky night! Thank You anyway, its good to know that it was effective for you to sleep..Hell right now I want something to put me on my *** in the worst and best kind of way. ...if that makes sense. Thanks one more time for all your helpful info and god bless you!
Avatar f tn as iladvocate says zyprexa can cause weight gain even on a normal diet which is frustrating as most of the meds have this side effect. i just started seroquel and am losing weight daily and am hoping to be soon back to normal. please don't panic, it sometimes takes a while to find the right combination of meds for each different person.
663901 tn?1232649671 Yes when I was on Seroquel I had to get an eye exam each year due to the extremely rare risk of cataracts but I saw an opthamologist anyway so it was no big deal. That is statisically rare and no reason to be concerned about Seroquel and a check up as I suggested is the best form of follow up. Seroquel is safe in this regard. In this case (you know I am always factual) your pharmacist was overstating the risk but a follow up visit is generally a good idea.
Avatar f tn Then I went to a party got drunk and relapsed on h. I got back on suboxone and have worked my way back up to 8 mg a day. Slowly but surely the subs have stopped working like they used to. And now I have a horrible time sleeping and paralyzing anxiety. I'm afraid to do things I would normally like doing. My hands and feel are always cold, and all I wanna do is sleep, and chew tobacco, hah I chew. I almost relapsed 2 days ago, but instead I upped my dose 2 mg. It was a close call.
Avatar n tn I wake up ny legs and feet hurt and are very stiff. My back, hip and head hurt. I took it at 9pm and it is 1pm. I still am in a fog. Don't even know how I have managed to take care of my 3 kids. My house is pure mess and I can't find the energy to clean it. Is it worth it? Am I suppose to stick it out and it will get better. Give me a 10mg oxycodone and I am superwoman! How come there isn't a psycho drug I can take that will make me feel like I do when I take percocet?
Avatar f tn Since seroquel can cause high BG you sure your diabetic and not as a result of seroquel raising your BG? Go to Google and put seroquel into the serch field.

Avatar f tn ve also been prescribed gabapentin (nuerontin) and seroquel, while also taking suboxone, and I can honestly say the "nodding off" feeling that the altogether mixture of gabapentin and seroquel, and also probably suboxones, I think made me relapse the times I did...because like you and revmo37 discussed, the sedatives can give u even worse cravings....goodluck though, i've been battling this for years, and I am with you in this...it's not easy, not one bit..
