Suboxone after percocet

[Rosco55]

I took two ten mg percocets at 9:00am and the 4mg of suboxone roughly 7 hours later. The last 24 hours have been absolutely agonizing. I cannot keep anything on my stomach as I vomit shortly after eating or drinking anything. I'm sweating, cannot sleep and have a headache. I realize, although I am not addicted physically to the Percs, that I am in precipitated withdrawals for 24 plus hours now. My question is how long is this going to last and will taking 4 more mg of suboxone help? Any advise would be greatly appreciated as I am in agony.

Thanks vicki I guess I was thinking they were with drawing from the percs. I did not know that would happen from the subs! Now I do I learn some thing new on here every day!
Thank you!

BearsFan- SUBOXONE contains an ingredient that causes Precipitated withdrawals if an opiate is taken prior to the sub and not enough time has gone by for the opiate to be eliminated.  It has nothing to do with addiction or dependence.  Just FYI...

Yes, you took that Sub too soon after the Percocet. Generally, you must be in moderate wd's before you take suboxone. I'm not sure why you did this and I don't recommend taking anymore sub.

You'll just have to struggle through while the sub wears off and it may be several more hours from now. It has a longer half life than most opiates other than methadone. Also, if you decide to take some more Percocet, you may not feel any effect because the sub will block it.

Hello and welcome
First off how long have you been taking percocets?
You say you are not addicted but then say you are going threw with drawls?
If you were not addicted you would not be going threw with drawls. Sorry but this is true. I do not know a lot about suboxone but from what I have read on here you are not to take it until you are in with drawls 24-48 hours after your last perc. I could be wrong but I have never been on them. I am sure someone who has can give you more info on that....
