suboxone

Avatar m tn The flare was so bad they had to remove my colon. I was given Diluadid IV. I have been taking Diluadid IV for 4 months now, about 50mg a day. I decided it was time to stop so this week I started to ween myself off. I am on Day 2 of no Diluadid and feel terrible. What can I do to help with the withdrawals? How long till I feel normal again?
Avatar f tn Yes suboxone is to expensive I was IV 6 roxys daily
Avatar f tn I know I have to keep holding on - I started heroin, b/c my boyfriend uses it IV & relapsed - thank god this only went on for a few weeks - but i am an addict of pills, crack & alcohol - I need help - what makes me mad is he is detoxing 2, but with suboxone, I am sweating it out & he seems almost normal - is it worse for IV users?
Avatar f tn What if they give me a benzo with it? Which im sure they are going to do in the IV. How long does it take to get the suboxone out of my system so it wont effect thw fentanyl or benzo? Like today I did only a small half and my appt is next friday.
Avatar n tn You may just need more of them to feel the effect. The naloxone in the Suboxone is only there to prevent IV use of that medication.
421977 tn?1203204128 hello everyone, im new to this forum but iv always kept up on readings and learning from all of you.. Iv recently been given another chance at getting clean and i want to thank god for that opp... This is my third dance with subutex and i wanted to tell what iv learned but at the same time try and figure out where iv went wrong.. My first ex with sub was at a live in rehab in west palm, by the name of "the watershed" which was hands down the best rehab iv been through.
Avatar f tn But I am used to Iv-ing suboxone, I have done that for months. THis morning was the only time subutex made me feel that bad.
Avatar m tn iv been clean for 10 days now an my doctor is telling me he has a medication thatll take the remaining withdralas away for a month.. is he lieing? could it just be a sugar pill to psych me out? iv never heard of this but he tells me people never get to use it cause when there in treatment patients never just go cold turkey they relapse the next day... or there not suppervised at all,,, any comments would be great to hear cause it just sounds to good to be true.
Avatar n tn Suboxone can help, but does she Want to get help? How long have you been clean for, and are you in any type of aftercare yourself? This must be very hard on you as a recovering addict.
Avatar f tn However many individuals who start using it to treat their addiction, become addicted to the Suboxone itself. Suboxone has a high rate of illicit abuse. Subutex, the product containing buprenorphine alone with no naloxone, creates a greater risk of misuse, abuse and diversion and many physicians are uncomfortable prescribing it. I hope this was helpful.
Avatar f tn Ok Ive been using. Drugs for 9yrs I've been on suboxone and subutex for about 4 out of the 9yrs and lemme tell u it all led to the same path as any other drug abusing snorting selling buying ppl wanting them me being short every month! Well for theist 7 months iny acctive addiction I started shooting up well I Haven't used in 18 Days but I've noticed an abscess growing on my leg n my hand swelling up now these r the last two places I've shot up so could.
19164880 tn?1473283520 I have recently finished my tapering off suboxone but have a lot of suboxone left over and am worried about possibly using some every now and then to help manage the extreme pain I experience every day which some days is debilitating. I figured if it wasn't harmful and didn't get me addicted again It'd be fine. My addiction originally was never from drug abuse but a result of pain management drugs given me by the doctor.
441267 tn?1211687001 What a wonderful nights sleep i had! It sure does wonders for my attitude. Today i am going to see my shrink/naturopathic dr. for vitamin/amino acid IV therapy. I haven't taken any sub yet today, and i am feeling pretty good, i do feel my mood spiraling down a bit but i'm not going to take any sub - at least untill after this IV therapy- want to be able to notice if it does anything for the withdrawls.
Avatar f tn I had been injecting suboxone every day for 10+ years straight. No breaks, no periods of total sobriety. I am currently almost 4 months free from needles but still taking suboxone orally. My hands are STILL swollen from hitting in those areas, will the swelling ever stop? I don’t have swelling in any other areas. I’m at the point now where it is practically impossible for myself or anyone else to hit a vein or draw blood.
Avatar m tn Iv been taking vicodin for 3 years but very heavily, easily more then 10 1,000 mg a day an started taking suboxone for the last 2 years i decided to stop cold turkey at 32mg the highest posible.
Avatar f tn Hey Chris and welcome. I am a heroin addict and am now on suboxone and it saved my life. Yes suboxone WD is worst then heroin BUT if u do a very long slow taper u will have little to no WD symptoms. If u ever want to talk about anything please PM me and we can talk. A lot of ppl don't agree with suboxone but in reality u can't taper from heroin like u could if u were on pills. Suboxone was the best thing I did for myself. How much H were u using a day? Were u an iv user?
591616 tn?1225458448 Is anyone on this forum besides me that is on suboxone for opiod withdrawls???
1459031 tn?1285904365 I agree with everyone else about calling 911. If she won't willingly go to the er have the er come to her. Suboxone is a very strong. Suboxone has been used for pain in Europe for years and it's prescribed in micro mgs. That means she took about 40 times more than what it would have been prescribed to someone that doesn't have a tolerance to opiates. So that being said my guess would be that she overdosed. Either that or she is having a severe allergic reaction. Get her help ASAP!
Avatar n tn I'm not sure if my experience applies to yours, but here's mine.I was on extremely high doses (150 mg) hydrocodone daily for 2 years and when my supply ran out went to sporadic iv use of morphine, oxy, heroin.I've been on suboxone 2 years now.For me, when I was on hydrocodone I had great energy, worked out daily, did great in school.since being off it and on suboxone I still got great grades but no longer had the energy to work out.
Avatar m tn the naloxone in the suboxone is simply to deter IV use..it has no effect orally, other than perhaps some nasty side effects including headache , nausea, and edema. With a proper recovery program, ppl on suboxone can concentrate on what is important in getting their lives sorted out, with out the highs and cravings of other drugs. It should be viewed as a stepping stone to recovery. Depending on usage, the person, under a doctors care , when ready, can slowly lower the dose.

Avatar f tn I was diagnosed with Hepatitis C in 2004, acquired from IV drug use. I saw a gastroenterologist that winter who said that I had very low liver levels and didn't need treatment. I continued to use drugs until April 2007, and had been told by doctors (at detox) that my levels were elevated. I have not seen a doctor regarding the hep c since then, and I have also been taking suboxone since 4/07. Is it important for me to be checked out after this time?
