suboxin

this is not a question but a remark on a detox center I went to for norco addiction.  I felt great saying gee this wasn't bad at all.  I did not know that they would be giving another form of opiate.  They dumped me at the airport at 3am and I went into severe withdrawls.  The cravings were intense so I ended up using again.  Don't ever try going to a place that uses this drug, it was a joke and an expense lesson for me.

I have been on Suboxine for a little over 2 years now. We relocated from are home town two month again for a fresh start. I'm on my 5 day Of Sub Withdrawl. Tomorrow will be six, longest I have ever lasted. It's miserable no doubt, no energy, leg cramps n back aches are the worst, restless night! I have to say because I lowered myself down and the huge family support and new environment are making things a little more helpful. I been reading everyones post and I feel each and everyone of you. I keep telling myself did I manage b4 drugs ever entered my life? Did I need a pill to get out of bed? No I'm going to do this if it kills me ( let's hope not;). I'm jumping out of my skin write as I'm typing, prayer tomorrow morning will be one step closer to feeling better. I'll keep you all updated on this hellish but soon to be rewarding progress.

Suboxone is another form of opiate. What may have happened is that they didn't wait long enough to give you the suboxone and you went into precipitated withdrawal. Sub is also an opiate blocker and that is why that can happen. The blame doesn't lie in the suboxone but the detox clinic you went to.

When you say you did not know they wouldn't be giving another form of opiate what did you expect? There aren't many, if any that are going to give a lesser strength of hydrocodone, oxycodone etc to detox someone. The whole point is to detox the person off of the drug. But since suboxone is a partial agonist it is the opiate that is used if any. Sounds like you went to a place that went about it the wrong way.
