RAPID SUBOXONE TAPER

10 lortab a day x a year  or so.  I have read and heard from a friend (with no personal experience) that there is a 21 day rapid taper program for shorter acting narc's such as Lortab.............would not work for the heavy stuff like methadone.  Has anyone heard of, or gone through such a rapid taper protocol and what were the results?

I have to do something quick or I will lose my job.

Thanks

I did one in 10 days, call the docs in your area and see what they offer.  Mine was a great deal as far as price, paid 300 and that included the pills, 50 clonidine, and some lunesta and pherengen for upset stomach ( the Sub made me nauseous after I took it this helped)

I was in the same situation, couldn't take off work, didn't have alot of money, knew people that did well with shorter term use, so I did tons of research and called the doc. He said he didn't have more than 2 patients that took it longer than 2 months, most did the short term and had lots of successes. Good luck to you.
