suboxone

Avatar f tn Before I address that though, I wanted to also address the damage you are doing to your liver because of the amount of acetaminophen you ingest by taking both percocets and Coricidin. Just Something to think about. Now let me tel you about Suboxone. Suboxone is the brand name for a medication consisting of buprenorphine and naloxone. Buprenorphine is a thebaine derivative with powerful analgesia approximately 20-40x more potent than morphine.
Avatar f tn I just posted a comment about stopping taking suboxone. I never intended to start it. I was sober for 7 years through AA and went back out for 2 weeks shooting dualasid(K4) and stopped after 2 weeks cause I so dust want to live like tht but had a friend give me suboxone in case I had wd. I don't think I would of for only doing it for 2 weeks but was scared. Now I like the suboxone and have taking it for a month, longer that I shot up.
Avatar m tn Ok, I've got to ask. And please, PLEASE, do not take this the wrong way, it's is most likely just an inability to connect all the proper circuitry in my old brain after too many years of 'recreational' behavior. But if you use Suboxone to detox from something don't you then have to later detox from the Suboxone? I'm probably missing the point, but when I read up on it I came away feeling like I would just be switching one DOC for another.
Avatar f tn No need to suffer seriously don't do that. If you can no longer get the medication and you can't get off of it without suffering go talk to a Suboxone doctor it works.
1536087 tn?1292526415 I just found out that i`m pregnant. Went to my first prenatal appo. the doctor said everything is going very well. I informed her of the medications i was taking prior to finding out about baby. I stopped taking the medications. However i also take percocet 15 mg 3-4 times a day ; not prescribed, and have not been able to stop taking this medication due to complications ; withdrawl. This is my second pregnancy.
Avatar m tn I started off at low doses and now take up to 160mg at once. This was all for recreational use. I started suboxone treatment a year ago and hadn't touched anything for a year. About 8 months ago I relapsed and ever since I have been back and forth between oxy and subs. I can take about 1-2 mg of sub and be fine but I want to quit this cold turkey. I have been on oxy everyday for the last 2 weeks and my last dose was almost 18 hours ago.
Avatar f tn (been usin since 17) ever since gettin prescribed to suboxone ive been clean and holdin a steady job.most people i know wont use for recreational use tho. It doesnt really get me high, it just makes me feel normal and not sick. It is addictive tho. I have to be weened of b4 i stop takin it.
Avatar n tn Would someone please tell me if taking 5 or 6 xanax once every few weeks to the point of passing out is an addiction or "recreational usage"? Is there such a thing as recreational use? My 20 yr old has been on suboxone for 4 months and has been clean except for these binges. I'm not justifying anything. I am just confused.
Avatar n tn i suffer from chronic pain ive been on narcotics for 10 years my new dr says he has patients that take suboxone for pain and it helps there pain but they dont get the high, i dont care about the high i want my pain controlled,does anyone know if suboxone really works on pain im scared to try something new.even though the dr sas it works id rather hear it from someone who takes it. i currently take oxycodone30 and methadone 10 for my pain.
Avatar m tn (to which we referred to lortab/vicodin/hydrocodone/etc as) back in 2004 or so. I graduated from college in 2002, and despite all of the other recreational drugs I'd experienced while in college, I had never taken itchies. Ironically, I actually didn't really like them. I had basically stopped with the recreational real drugs (coke, X, etc) after college and only smoked weed still. My best friend was diagnosed with cancer in 2002, and itchies were added to the mix.
Avatar m tn of suboxone/day. My titration schedule had me detoxing off of suboxone over the period of two months. I faithfully followed the schedule until I got down to about 8 mg. of suboxone, but then the leg aches, back aches and hypertension really set in. I had had them all along since the beginning, but the suboxone made them bearable. I continued going down on my suboxone until I reached 2 mg.
631581 tn?1224844661 For some thats methadone, for others is suboxone. For some its methadone then suboxone is the next progressive step -- all steps towards the final goal of being drug free are good ones. My opinion is that suboxone is very powerful and should be regarded as such. It should be used very carefully. Unfortunately I have talked to many people, like myself, who started the subs to avoid withdrawal and ended up in a living nightmare when eventually going through sub detox.
Avatar m tn But everything else - suboxone, oxy, perks, even heroine.. for me suboxone was the worst. Probably not the most accute pain--but for me, Im a rip the bandaid off quick person.. suboxone was much longer than the others. Hopinforhappy - so true! It does seem like whatever your doing at the time is the worst.
Avatar m tn I have been getting strong cravings for Percocet lately, but I have some suboxone in the drawer. I am feeling a tad fatigued due to recreational use of pain killers from the weekend. I really don't want to have these cravings and a friend has suggested just taking .5 MG of suboxone. This I know would aleviate the cravings and also get rid of the fatigue. My question is: If I took a total of .5MG of suboxone last Monday and then Tuesday and did pain killers over that weekend, then did .
Avatar f tn What I need to know is if I were to take Suboxone for a week to help with the withdrawals from the pills and then stop will I go through withdrawal from Suboxone when I was only on it a week? I have researched about Suboxone and I know it is addictive and I don't want to trade one adddiction for another. Also, even though she prescribed me to take 16mg a day, once in the morning and once in the night can I take less?
2008432 tn?1327873760 I have experimented with them for recreational use, and unfortunately was put on them for pain from an accident I was involved in. While I do love the feeling they give me, they are ruining my life, my family, my relationship. Everything around me is falling apart from using. I want to be free of this addiction, I know I am addicted, I admit I am, and yet it is so hard to stop. I have come close to losing everything, and yet still can't stop.
Avatar m tn Man how did we all make it to this point. It didn't matter if it was recreational or prescribed the ends are the same. WD WD WD. I am setting myself up with the suboxone I know, but for now I feel really good. My life has just be wasted...............
Avatar f tn When I was on Suboxone, my doctor treated Tramadol just like an opiate. If a patient had taken Tramadol, he had them wait.
Avatar n tn I have been a medically prescribed addict to Vicodine for nearly (5) years. I have had 2 total knee replacements and endless pain issues so this habit wasn't developed out of recreational use but I am smart enough to know that I am addicted. I had what is hoped to be the last of (8) surgeries in the past (4) years this past February 14th. I am now ready to begin an attempt to get off the vicodine but I have gone through this before, just not as extremely physically addicted as I am now.
1781282 tn?1314931590 I wonder what suggestions your psychiatrist had for you? Now you are trying Suboxone. Well. here is the info you asked for: Suboxone is a medication specifically designed to use for weaning from opioid addiction. It is a combination of an opioid receptor agonist/antagonist, and naltrexone, which is a pure receptor blocker.
Avatar f tn I'm really an idiot. Ok to tell u a quick background.. I am a recovering herion addict. Clean for 3 years. The basic rules of NA and AA state that u can't put any mind altering substances in your body. Including alcohol. So that being said...After I went to treatment and got my life back on track I made a decision that I would have a drink with dinner occasionally or drink a daiquiri from time to time. I've been doing that for 2 years (clean total for 3).
Avatar m tn after going cold turkey, and thinking i now had the knowledge to control my recreational use i started using again.. Long story short, this is my 4th time stopping, the previous 2 times have been over the last month or so, and both times i used Suboxoned acquired from a friend to get off. After falling for these devil pills again i decided to go in and use the Suboxone under a doctors care. So today i went into see a local doc who treats alot of people dealing with substance abuse..
Avatar f tn that stinks you are now addicted to methadone, a heavy opioid because Tramadol is a very weak semi-synthetic opioid 150mgs is equal to 60mgs of codeine. I used tramadol to help the wds from a two year heavy addiction to Heroin and/or Oxycontin. I ahve now been on methadone for a year. I have taken every opioid/opiate there is on the market and I have to say with full confidence that methadone by far has the worst withdrawal symptoms. It last for over a month and peaks at 3 weeks.
Avatar f tn Does oxycontin as recreational use exhibit symptoms of indifference and apathy and unconcern over everyday obligations and responsibilities which prior to use were contradictory to the persons character. In other words a complete change of personally untecogisable by loved ones?
