thomas recipe while tapering? and suboxone?
I have a Thomas Recipe question..... Is it worth it to take use the Thomas Recipe while either tapering off of DOC or tapering off of suboxone? And is it worth it to use in the withdrawal period between DOC and being able to start suboxone to help minimize symptoms during those 24-72 hours? Or is it just meant to start using on the day when you go completely drug free?
Sorry to be so specific. I am about to either go completely CT or taper off as quickly as possible (ie less than 2 weeks) using suboxone. I am nervous about the time I have to wait and getting very sick. I have never gone 24 hours or more without medicine. Just wondering if there is anything I can do to help.
Also, since I also have a pain issue as well, does anyone know if one can take ultracet in the hours before taking suboxone? I know it's not technically a narcotic so I thought it would be ok but I just don't want to do anything to mess up. Thanks for any help. This is a huge step for me, one I have been putting off for too many years to admit.

I have tried to detox both ways ... with suboxone and without. My opinion on suboxone is a great tool for someone who wants to stay on it for months or years, but if you are serious about getting clean, your best move is to quit C/T and never look back. Everyone experiences detox differently, but in my case, suboxone was a crutch that only led to a quick relapse. Most will tell you the best way to get off opiates is to face it head on. Two weeks from now you will be happy you did.
As far as the Thomas recipe, It can't hurt to use it while you are tapering. I didn't taper so I can't share my experience with that but most addicts don't eat the healthiest diets so getting some extra vitamins in you can only help. The Thomas recipe was a life saver for me. Good luck and keep posting.
