If your not sick in the am wait. You don't have to be miserable but make sure your pretty dope sick. Like you past a good stool but not the runs. Sorry but all opiate addicts know what I mean.
Roxi's have a short half life so I would do my last pills early 9pm take a bar of xanax and try to sleep when you wake up in the morning you should be sick. So take a half a sub and wait an hour or two if still hurting take the other half. The sub will start filling the recepters. I took a couple subs my first day.
OK first of all suboxone should never be used without supervision of a Doctor. 2nd of all if you really want to get clean your husband should be trying to get clean or esle its never going to happen trust me on that. The amount of pills you were taking is do-able just going to be hard. Im still in the first week of my suboxone, and it truly does help but Im also going to a clinic and being monitored. Xanax should not be mixed at all with the subs. The pills are suposed to be dissolved under the tounge and not swallowed. You need to at LEAST 24 hours before taking your first suboxon or else your going to go into hardcore withdraws. One last thing if you do end up taking any kind of opiate while taking suboxone you will not feel the high and you will just get extremely sick.
You need to be in moderate withdrawal (typically 24 hours after your last dose) before you start taking the suboxone. The doctors use the COWS scale. You can find that here....

You should not mix xanax with suboxone. I would not reccomend taking the xanax while waiting for your withdrawal to kick in. If you feel you can't make it without it, you need to ask the doctor.
Hope this helps.
