i am currently taking between 160-240 mgs. of oxycontin.i just got my first prescribtion of suboxone 2 days ago.i have not taken any suboxone yet,because of my work schedule.i work on a towboat.and will be isolated on the boat for 28 days.so i dont run out of suboxone i'll have to wait a few more days,before i can start the treatment.i have tried suboxone before and was sucessfull,until i got injured again.now i'm back where i was a couple of years ago ADDICTED.
in my confused state of mind and going through withdrawls at my sub.doctors office.i forgot to ask him what can also be prescribed to lesson the leg and muscle aches that occur.i remember having real bad pain in my legs.
if anybody knows of any medications that help during the suboxone treatment for the leg cramps.please let me know,so i can ask my doctor to prescribe them to me.THANKS

I always have had leg cramps very bad and it was way before I started any drugs or stopped them.  I read somehting in a magazine one time years ago and it said that believe it or not but avacado's work I don't know if I spelled that right, but anyway I starting eating  a half of avacado a day and I have had very few leg cramps I know it sounds dumb I thought so when I read it but it did work.  Good luck,    Debbie1054

Hot showers and baths also help with the leg cramps. Unfortunately thats part of the price we pay. I hope you get feeling better and certainly try the magnesium. Also bananas can help as they have potassium which is also proven to help cramps. Drink lots of water as well.
Much luck to you! We are here to support and help you thru this! And remember, this will NOT last forever.
