HYDROCODONE VS OXYCODONE - WHAT IS THE DIFERENCE?
Hydrocodone is a weaker substance to oxycodone.
I read hydocodone 7.5mg is equal to Oxycodone 5mg.
I'm unsure if this is right. But it's what I've picked up...
I have my doubts.

I'm struggling using this web-site. I have been detoxing from hydrocodone since 2-24-11, Dr wants me to go on suboxon. I dont really want to be on another drug as i just gave up 5yrs. of life to hyrdo's.. am i almost through this or do you know?? Thanks for any help.. Sam

i have a friend who used the suboxon to get off oxys, and she swears by it. unlike methadone you reach your maximum dose (to feel comfortable) within a couple of days; and, it is not an opiate replacement. It took her about a week to be free of the physical addiction, and about two months to get over the mental addiction. It is a drug to free you of the addiction, not just replace it with another opiate. Good luck, it's the way to go if you truly want not to use opiates anymore.
