Im sorry to hear of your situation. There is a rule allowing ANY doctor to prescribe suboxone in emergent situations for 3 days. It is known as the 3 Day rule. If you go to the ER, the docs there should at least be able to get you a 3 day supply.
You can also call Reckitt Benckiser the manufacturer of suboxone. They have a hotline called the "Here to help" program. Im not sure what all they can do, but I know they have helped several members on Buprenorphine on another board I post on. Their number is 1-866-956-9204
Or you can head over to NAABT.org That is the National Alliance and Advocates for Buprenorphine Treatment. There is a ton of info over there, and that site can help you find a doctor that may be able to work with your situation.
There is now a generic form of Subutex available at a much lower cost than name brand suboxone. IS there any way for your doc to write a script for generic subutex?
I agree with Vicki that 16mgs of sub is way too high to CT from. It can be done without much risk, but the wd's will be horrendous!
Hang in there!

Please do what Vicki suggested,with this combo they will know what to do. Also,this is why I said no to sub,...no money...too bad. karl
I'm not sure what they'll do.You don't have to do anything you don't want. They'll check you out and perhaps give you some more meds so you don't go into any bad withdrawals. Every ER has it's own protocol for this. Sometimes they admit you for detox.
what will they do...detox me from the perks and oxys or the sub..i dont think im ready to stop taking the sub
Go to the ER and tell them your story and what you've taken in the last few weeks...
They have to help you. 16mgs is too high a dose to come off of...
