If you feel Suboxone is the way to go then be sure to read as much as you can about it. Understand the benefits and the risks. Make a plan.

Are there any sort of instructions on the bottle label? If that is not clear, will you calling your doctor in the morning?

How are the withdrawal symptoms right now? If you let us know what you are feeling we can make some suggestions for home remedies that can help ease the process.

Have you tried other ways to come off these or is sub the first time?

Really? First thing I would do is find a new doctor ASAP. Suboxone is not just a pill to get you through the withdrawal. It is a program to help you get your life back on track and should be used in conjunction with some form of aftercare. And doctor worth his weight knows that and I find it hard to believe he just sent you off with a script and no instructions. You should always take your first dose in his office so they can monitor you and make adjustments. I suggest you call him in the morning and ask to see him right away.

Good luck.

How long did your doctor tell you to wait? Aren't you taking your first dose in his office?
