Suboxone causing fatigue

I've been on suboxone 16mg for 2 weks now and everytime I sit down I doze off for a few seconds. Does this happen to anyone else?

Yeah you maybe on a too high of a dose, try to take 1 and then a 1/2 second time and see if that helps.

My doctor was too dumb, oops, I mean, inexperienced, to know this. Maybe your doctor is dumb, oops, I mean, inexperienced, as well. I swear, that one day course they have to take to get their govt permission to prescribe the stuff doesn't seem to include the subtleties of treatment.

Yeah, you could read my posts, Sasha341. In my opinion, and from everything else I've read, if you are that tired, you are on too high of a dose. That's the "low tide on a flat beach" feeling. My post is called "Tired, tired, tired"  - sound familiar?
