Please don't take anyones advice here since no one is a dr. In my experience, if u are only taking a 20mg oxy and getting high, u do not need suboxone to get off, u are just being a baby; a day off and u should be in the clear-physically. Mentally, that's another story and one I don't have the answers too, since we all got high for a reason (except for the few who actually needed it; which I don't hear on this thread lol) subs are serious drugs and have nasty nasty side effects. I'm doing some more research on the Xanax interaction death mechanism, and while I'm not proud, I've taken both in the same 24 hr periods along with ambien and woken up in the morning, but reall no idea if I may have just as easily stopped breathing, heart stopped beating or whatever, I never took more than 4mg sub, .5mg Xanax (1/4 bar) and 10mg ambien within 12 hrs of each other. I was clean from oxy on subs for a while, and to be honest the subs ROCKED ME, but after bouncing back n forth, WASTING OXY AFTER OXY FROM SUB BLOCKNG IT sometimes 24-36 hrs after subbing, I would say to take a hard look at what u are really trying to accomplish. If u are bs'ing urself about quittng or just gettng subs while u can't afford oxy, then u will lose the highs and be in a perpetual state of blah, losing all ur money a little slower but nevertheless until it's gone. If u are lucky enough to be at an 80 a day, then really, I would suggest going cold turkey and having a few subs when and if u start withdrawing. I'm not sure if I ever have withdrawn fully, I get what I call restless leg syndrome where I feel like kicking and squirming my legs till they break and being uncomfortable touching other people or them touching me and sitting still, when this happens I pop a half or quarter sub and wait to calm down. This is from between 2-5 80's a day for about the last 14 months. It's disgusting to think how much cash I've wasted on it, so really, u kids looking for a bit of the rock star life, don't think it won't grab you, cause it will. I started out doing tiny bumps off an 80, making it last a week, then a couple days, then one day, etc, if u keep using it it will grab u and not let go. That's my two cents, be interested to hear more stories and info on the actual drug interaction that is fatal, as in, what happens and is there any warning that uve interacted fatally before or do u just boom! Die... Peace and love peeps I wish there were a safer way to get high cause I personally love it, but it has ruined me, don't be like me, get out while u still can!

Hi. I have been snorting 3-4 80 mgs of OC's a day in addition to popping 10-15 vikes or norcos for the past 2 years. 4 days ago I did my last line at 9pm and took a 8mg suboxone (I call them sunkists) at 9am the next day. I feel great! I have not experienced any withdrawals and my energy level is high and I feel super happy. I also take vitamin B6 and B12 and a mild anti-depressent, Budeprion. Everything is clear and I can focus. About two hours ago, I took 10mg of methadone because I ran out of sunkists. I did not go into withdrawal and am feeling fine right now.
I hope this helps.

how long do you need tp wait tp take suboxone after taking oxy to not make yourself sick?Quote:




I was addicted to Oxys for about 2 years. About 2 months ago I was up to 300 mg. per day. I had actually had enough of it 6 months ago but I was afraid to stop because of the whole withdrawl thing which I went through a few years ago due to Percocet addiction. (10 10mg pills per day) That withdrawl was 7 days and nights of pure HELL. 7 days without 1 minute of sleep, heart beating out of my chest, unbelievable anxiety etc. As horrible as that was I found myself addicted again, this time to 30 mg oxys. These were prescribed for a medical condition which caused severe pain. I actually went 2 months in agony before I finally gave in and filled the prescription. I knew I would become addicted again but I was about to loose my job because I could not function due to the pain. Well, 2 years later and taking 10 30 mg oxys a day I was getting close to loosing my job due to the addiction. I investigated Suboxone and read all of the posts about it many of which scared the hell out of me. But I know I needed to stop beacause 300 mgs a day was not enough anymore and I probably would OD if I didnt. I went to the Suboxone website, found a doctor and made an appointment. The doctor told me to make sure I was in withdrawl by the time I came in for my visit. At 9AM when I arrived at her office, it had been 26 hours since my last dose. I was having all the symptoms of withdrawl. Yawning, sweating, chills, anxiety, shakes etc. I was feeling sick but not too bad yet. I took one 8mg dose of Suboxone and was told to wait in the office for a while to see how I felt. 10 minutes later, full withdrawls hit me like a brick wall. It got so bad the doctor gave me another 4 mgs and we waited. 30 mins later I was no better. She had me lay down in a dark room and finally after another 30 minutes I started to feel a little better. Then all at once...I felt really good. I had read posts on here about how Sub. will put you into a full withdrawl if you are not off your opioid long enough. I thought that the 26 hours was long enough. I was afraid to go any longer as I thought I would then be to sick to drive myself TO the doctor. She explained that everyones body chemistry is different and that my receptors held on to the opiate longer than the average person. So I suggest to be as far into withdrawls as you can handle before beginning Suboxone. The good thing is, even if you do get sick when you take your first dose, It will go away in an hour or so. I drove home and really felt much better. I decided to just lay in bed, watch movies and relax for the rest of the afternoon then go to sleep. After a few hours, I started getting a headache. It got worse and worse almost to the point where I thought of going to the hospital as I had never had a headache this severe. Useing an icepack and taking 6 Motrin in a 4 hr period I finally fell asleep. I woke up in the morning took my 8mg Sub. and let me tell you I felt great! I hadnt felt this good in such a long time! The first 3 weeks I took 8mg Sub in the morning and 4mg at night. I had energy, I felt happy. Happy as hell to be off the damn Oxys! Everyone, even people at work noticed what a great mood I was in every day, I just felt normal again! 3 weeks later I stopped taking the 4mg evening dose and have been on just 8mg one time a day. I was using pretty heavily for the past 2 years and so far, 2 months on Suboxone I have NOT wanted to use AT ALL! I even found 2 Oxys in a drawer the other day and I just flushed them. The doctor said we can lower my dose in another week. I cant wait to be off the Sub. so I can be pill free and not have to always make sure I have a pill with me where ever I go just in case. I am a bit nervous about whats going to happen after I take my last dose because I have read some peoples posts that said the withdrawls from Sub. can be pretty bad. But I have also read some that said Its not bad. Guess Ill find out for myself and will keep you posted. Even though that first day was pretty rough (for me), I know Suboxone saved my life! One other thing my doctor explained...MOST pain clinics (at least the ones in south Florida)perscribe Suboxone and keep you on it as long as possible just like they do with the oxys, roxies and other pain meds beacause they are just out for your money. So she reccomends finding a qualified doctor who specializes in addiction. Most of them should be more interested in getting you off pain meds, and on Suboxone for the shortest time possible. Group therapy Is supposed to be very helpful as well. Although I am not comfortable with that myself and hope I dont need to enter a program down the line. I just want you to know that there is help and hope out there and dont be afraid to go for it and get your life back. Sorry for such a long post but I really wanted to thak you all for all the information and encouraging posts I have read. They really did help me into making the decision to go and seek help! Good luck to you all! God bless

Listen, the first answer you got on the thread is the correct one!!! You can't take oxy, or methadone, or any other opiate before you take suboxone. You can take tyhem after and it will help with pain. I wouldn't take another suboxone for 12 hours, though. I was a bad methadone addict and I took 250mg the night before I tried to take suboxone and wen't into immediate withdrawal that was worse than anything I ever felt! My skin was burning like I had spilled coffee on it and I was dropping in an out of consciousness! But I have taken suboxone and then lortabs and felt better than just suboxone alone, then waited 12 hours and took another suboxone and was fine, just be careful!!!! And don't abuse benzo's or there is a high potential for OD from either sub or benzo, when used together.

You can take oxy's 4 hours after a sub. Sub's are blockers for the first 4 hours... after that, you're in the clear!!

Some of these people are crazy. I JUST DID THIS ABOUT 10 MINUTES AGO! Heres the deal: I took alot of oxy last night about 210mg and this morning i still felt okay, at about noon I started to feel a withdrawl coming on so I decided to try a sub for the first time. I took 1/4 of an 8 mg suboxone and it immediately made me start withdrawling badly, way worse than before I took it. So i had to take oxy right away to try and stop this. I tried 30mg no luck, I tried another 30mg and felt a very small amount better so i took 1 more 30mg and now I feel much better. Im not really high but 90mg doesnt get me there anyway. Hope this helps someone cause I was really confused after I read this. This is the truth it just happened to me so please listen to someone that experienced it first hand.

Agreed with the sub then the oxy is ok but oxy then a sub will have you feeling like sh*t. As far as the Suboxone and the xanax, do not do it. I experimented last week and i had troubles breathing and about an hour later was actually headed to the hospital and got into a car acciden. i dont remember the first 24-36 hours in the hospital after the accident and woke up in the psych wing in the hospital with 6 strap restrantants holding me down in the bed. Suboxone and xanax do not mix!!!!

ive been taking about 2 mg of suboxone each day to deal with my addiction to oxys and what ive realized is that if you are going to take oxys while on suboxones, you should wait at least 48 hours after you take the suboxone if you want to feel anything at all. 2 mg of suboxone stays in your system longer than you'd think, and if you do relapse while on subs, its a waste of an oxy

To the guy in Toledo who said to take 4 of the suboxone in the same hour. THANK YOU! I tried 3 and this is a great buzz. This is just want I needed. I have been on the suboxone for only a week but I have been very depressed lately. What can I say, I am an addict that missed that "buzz" effect. Tomorrow I plan and getting right back and track and take them as perscribed but you got me through another day. Thanks.

I've been on suboxone for a little over a month and last night I finally broke down and tried a little bit. I took about 4mg of suboxone yesterday at around 3pm. Then at around 6pm I smoked about 15-30mg of oxy, I couldn't tell how much cause it was 2 extremely small quarters from an 80mg pill. Suffice to say it was a waste, but I did it mainly just to get that familiar taste as the cravings have seemed to come back. No one seems to have answered at all that when this happens am I able to take my normal suboxone dosage today? It's been about 18 hours since I last smoked that tiny tiny bit of oxy, compared to the 80mg or more I would do daily... with the previous amount of suboxone in me, I should be fine to go on ahead and take it, right?

The only reason you should be taking any type of opiate with suboxone is if you are on some sory of pain management! If you can become pain free with suboxone without ever having to take percocet, vicoden, morphine, oxycontin, etc... then you should do it! People do not realize that after you become addicted to pain killers even after you overcome the addiction with methadone or suboxone your life is going to be changed forever, you will not enjoy things as much as you used to no matter how clean you are and as much fun as getting high was you will regret it! I have been on painkillers for years, everything from vicoden, percocet, fentenyl patchs, oxycontin, etc... It took a week to go from the cocktail I was on to taking suboxone with 1-3 perc's a day. It was very painful and I would not wish it on anyone. Your body will want the painkillers for as long as you live and will generate subconcious pain so you can validate getting back on the smack. At all costs DO NOT TAKE PAINKILLERS!! Suboxone is a great drug for pain suffers in many cases, and even though you do not need to have cancer to get on powerful painkillers, they are the only ones who benefit from them. You may only be concernd with stopping your pain at first but your body will start to care more about the drugs sooner or later!
