Here is my Husband's story, after numerous surgeries, he got addicted to vicadin,percot,oxicotin.We found the miracle drug suboxone so we thought, been taking it over a yr, it makes him feel great while he's on it, but he knows he has to come off because of the expense and the opiate it has in it,He has followed the doc's weaning process, which was 2 mg for a wk, then 2 mg every other day for a wk, then 2mg 3 days for a wk. Then he stopped, everything was great for 2 wk's, until this past wknd.He started having major w/d, could just about function.I thought he was nuts it had been 2 wk's, we then started calling hot lines etc...They said the doc's don't know much about this drug and they are also precribing trazadone to help you sleep. We then found out from our pharmacist that the trazadone he was also taking keeps the subs on your brain receptors longer. Thats why it took him 2 wk's to start w/d.Fortunately, he had some left at the pharmacy to start the weaning process.We don't want to ask the Doc, we think they are a bunch of crooks, they are trying to keep the patients on this as long as possible. They are making a tremendous amount of money on this, they are allowed to have 100 patients on this drug a month.They don't tell you about the w/d and they don't tell you this drug comes from India, that there hasn't been much research on it..Anyway with not much left, does anyone have a schedule we can follow to wean, he needs to have min w/d due to starting a new job in a couple of weeks as a truck driver.He's been out of work for a yr due to the economy, we need help.God Bless to all who are suffering from this.
