Sub and Vicodin at same time

Sub and Vicodin at same time

What will happen if you're on a maintenance dose of suboxone and you take a vicodin?  Anything bad?  I thought it throws you into withdrawals but a Dr said that's a myth.  Anybody do that?

Thanks,
Keepon

     I don't think that's a myth as there is a drug in suboxone designed to do just that.  Your dr. may be prescribing subutex.

It will block the effect of the vicodin.

BTW..why would you want to do that??

Nothing happend to me, probably because it's a opiate blocker....

Suboxone has to different meds...Buprenorphine and Naloxone........

The naloxone is the blocker so if you take Vics on top of it the Naloxone will block the opiate but if you continue to pound more and more the opiate will have to go somewhere........
I just spoke to a doctor about this same question I asked if you were on Suboxone he said if you take enough it would go straight to the diaphragm and try to paralyze it and you could be in big trouble........

Be careful if you wanted to get high on top of the Suboxone you should of went with Subutex it is all Buprenophine without the Naloxone.......

But it doesn't make sense to mix Suboxone with other opiates if you want to use just stop taking the Suboxone..........
It takes courage to stop using and try to change your addictive thinking and get your life back..........
