Please help...

I have gone from taking 20-30 30mg OC's to nothing for two days into 8mg of suboxone for the last 3 days.  Should I be on more suboxone than what I am on?  I can not go to a DR because I am stuck at work.  Please help, I feel like I am having withdrawals right now!!!

Hello and welcome ! At that level PLEASE see your doctor as just stopping at that level can be very dangerous ! Look at our health pages for more advice . I know when I stopped at just 30 mg. of Vicodin a day my blood pressure was pretty high ! Take care ..Jimmy

I would recomend that you go back to the OC and reduce off them. If thats not possible for you, then only you will know what dose is enough. what I will say is try to taper off them in less than a month. I have done a detox with them after long term maintenance. I would not recomend them.

good job on stopping for any length of time. i jumped from 120+ of those devil drugs. yep. cold turkey. in about 4-5 days youll be ok. i promise. why the thought of subs? just take imodieum and move thru the withdrawls. i wouldnt recommend subs. thats just another opiate.may i ask why oxy? i was rxed from doc. and took a three year tour. one that eventually lead me to loose my car. please please ride out the detox. your better than any pill.

I am sorry but we cannot share dosing information with you. It is a violation of our guidelines. It is really a shame that you are unable to see a doctor and do the program properly. You may benefit from it. I suggest that you do some further reading about Suboxone, perhaps on their web site.

Best of luck. I hope you get and stay clean.
