Common Questions and Answers about Suboxone equivalent chart

suboxone

Avatar f tn Butrans 20mcg hour patch is what he has me on. When I looked at the conversion chart it said 20 mcg patch is equivalent to 60 methadone. Please please let me know if I read it wrong or Any info. Thank you. Also, it's for pain and I read that people sometimes need to take something besides the patch for break through pain.
Avatar m tn Hi I just happened to see your post, it hasn't been answered. I don't have a great answer but there is a conversion chart from Suboxone to Methadone, you can search it out. At the same time, from everything I have read if you were going from 30 mg of Methadone to 12mg sub it would be ok, the opposite is not true. Suboxone is much stronger than other opiates so you would want to do the conversion yourself before the doctor switches you.
Avatar m tn I went to a hospital to detox and they put me on subtext after three days, I am home now and on 4mg of suboxone a day. I can't move, I have no energy and am constantly hungry. I have to get back to work and pay my bills. I feel like my brain has stopped working and I'm in a fog. I'm very weak. Please help......
Avatar f tn question: if 1 mg of suboxone is equal to 20-30 mgs of hydrocodone would that be the same for oxycontin would 1 mg of sub be equal to 20-30 mgs oxy then?
Avatar m tn i cant remember which but either avisg or worried has the chart in their jpurnals. i dont know a site for it though.
Avatar f tn I too was a 20 year methadone patient. I have tried numerous times to switch to suboxone. On suboxone I cannot sleep, I have extremem anxiety, and I have no energy. I am not sick but I do not feel normal. I have been told by the manufacturer that this is a common complaint from long term methadone maintenance patients. I suggest you return to methadone. Follow your own bodies advice and ignore the rest. Only you know how your body functions and reacts to medication.
Avatar f tn Hello all. I'm here to ask for help. Does anyone know of Roberts suboxone taper plan. I have never been a very heavy user of oxy but stool an addict. Started about 1.5 years ago messing around with 5mg percocets and then of course built a tolerance to roughly 60mg per day. I tried to stop cold turkey but just couldn't do it. I started 1mg Suboxone yesterday and felt it was too much ..felt high but not euphoric and had a headache.
640719 tn?1277140030 The "conversion chart" says that 100 mcg levo is roughly equivalent to 65 mg desiccated, so 32.5 mg would be roughly equivalent to 50 mcg. However, bear in mind that the two are not really equivalent since T3 and T4 are very different. The chart only offers a place to start, and your starting dose should take that into account along with other factors, like your typical drug tolerance and the fact that T3 sometimes takes a little getting used to.

Avatar m tn Friends, just a question that I would like to know the answer to. There is the "New" Suboxone that has come out called Zubsolv. Zubsolv come in a 5.7mg tablet and is suppose to be equivalent to Suboxone 8mg. Something about this new drug absorbs better in your system so you need less. My friend is just started taking Zubsolv and he is driving me nuts by saying the Drug Industry is sending out a placebo and no way is Zubsolv equivalent to Suboxone.
Avatar f tn You use it to convert your fentanyl dosage to an equivalent morphine dose, and then find the equivalent morphine dose to oxymorphone, Generally when converting between opiates, doctors will reduce the new medication strength by a certain percentage to account for incomplete cross tolerance, which is a boost in analgesia you get from rotating from one kind of opiate to another. You can find equal analgesic tables, and apps for calculating equivalent dosing online.
Avatar f tn I was prescribed suboxone (actually a generic called zubsolv) sept 27 for opioid dependence (vicodin and or percocet) i waited the next day after prescribed had not had any opioids and started taking 1 8mg tab twice a day. First day felt great except for some anxiety i thought could be stress induced with everything going on or withdrawals from vics.
Avatar n tn Coming from a non-eye care professional, my advice would be not to have limbal relaxing incisions. With only .5D of astigmatism, your spherical equivalent would be +1.25D (as opposed to your current +.75D). I tried to explain why in recent posts to Capes55 but didn't do a great job. I know that your near/intermediate vision is very blurry at +.75D, but it's pretty blurry at plano, too.
267288 tn?1256278177 Does anyone know what the equivalent dosage of Armour is to 1.25 mg and 1.0 mg levothyroxine respectively? Also, if anyone knows the equivalent Armour to 1.0 mg levothyroxine/ .25 mg Cytomel... Thank you very much in advance....
Avatar f tn 4 weeks= a month 8 weeks= 2months 12 weeks=3 months 16 weeks=4 months 20 weeks=5months 24weeks=6months 28weeks=7months 32weeks=8months 36-40=9 months! That's the chart my Dr gave me .. so 24 weeks is six months!
Avatar n tn Ask them if they have a chart....my doc gives us a book with the chart that they go by which is the same chart posted.
Avatar f tn You are not on the chart yet. Either am I, but that really is meaningless when it comes down to damage. only a liver biopsy can tell you that.
Avatar f tn Anyway, I got a new set of issues or one. Suboxone!! I have been on this drug for three years. Dr put me on it when I was prego. I want off of it. Does anyone have any experience with this drug and getting off of it. Every time I try, I fail. I have gotten down to 8mg a day. I hate the taste of it. I hate to put it in my mouth.
Avatar n tn I think I misinterpreted the chart. I believe either 37.5 mcg of Cytomel OR 150 mcg of levo is equivalent to 90 mg of Armour, not the two added together. If you wanted to combine the two, you'd have to reduce the amount of levo and replace with an equivalent amount of Cytomel (1/4 the Cytomel for the reduction in levo, e.g. drop the levo to 100 mcg and add 12.5 mcg Cytomel).
Avatar f tn Acella Pharmaceutical produces NP Thyroid. Acella is a nickname for NP Thyroid. The NP Thyroid approximate equivalent strength chart conversion: ½ grain = 30mg, 1 grain =60mg, 1 ½ grain = 90mg. NP Thyroid tablets can be swallowed whole or taken sublingually (under the tongue).
Avatar f tn I'm 31 weeks pregnant today, went to the midwife and she said my measurements are short and I'm going down the chart. What does it mean?I'm measuring 30 cms at 31 weeks pregnant is that normal or not?
Avatar f tn Just in case you are interested....here's a conversion chart from a former MedHelper showing Suboxone/Bupenorphine (bupe) equivalency to other opiates: 1.2 mg of bupe is equal to 30 mg of hydrocodone http://www.medhelp.org/user_journals/show/18499/Conversion-table-other-drugs-equivalent-to-sub So roughly an 8 mg/2mg strip of suboxone would be equal to 200 mg of hydrocodone.
Avatar m tn I was just wondering how much methadone is equvalent to how much suboxone?
