Please answer

I have been on suboxens for 1 week and this morning i relapsed and took one oxy 80. I am very upset and want to go back on my suboxen but am afraid of the induced withdrawel that happens from taking a suboxen to early. Can someone please tell me how long i should wait before taking the suboxen? I took the 0xy at 7am

Wait until you feel like you are well into withdrawals, not just the early symptoms, but full withdrawals. That should assure that you won't go into precipitated withdrawals.  How much Sub were you on when you relapsed? It's very important to be on the right dose so you have no cravings, especially in the first week or so.  Feel free to PM me if you have any other questions.

Oxy 80's take a long time to get out of your system -- I am surprised that it had any effect on you since the Sub was blocking your receptors.   I think you need to be sure you are really in W/D's before you take sub.  All the best.

I would wait until you start to feel some withdrawal symptoms. Probably at least 10-12 hours. How much sub are you taking each day? Maybe the dose is too low for your first week.
