Buprenorphine (Suboxone) has an elimination half-life of about 37 hours. This means that every 37 hours, half of the buprenorphine left in your body is removed. After the first 37 hours, only 1 mg will be left, after 74 hours, 0.5mg are left, etc. In short, most of the drug will be gone in 4 or 5 days, but it will be weeks before all of it is gone.

I know of a friends friend who was on suboxone for several years. He went to Australia and could not get suboxone he said he went through 3 days of intense withdrawals. I believe suboxone treatment is supposed to taper off until the patient is taking 0. This is to avoid withdrawals

It's just like stopping the original pain killers....every person is different. You can successfully stop taking Suboxon in a week or a year of taper, it just depends on you and what level of discomfort you are willing to endure.

Suboxone is made of two drugs - buprenorphine and naloxone. The buprenorphine is what sticks around in your system and prevents withdrawl. It has a 36 hour half-life. So if you took 2mg of suboxone one time only, 36 hours later you'd have 1mg left in your system. 36 hours after that you'd have .5 mg in your system. Another 36 hours and there'd be .25mg left and so on. If you've taken soboxone more than just that one time, there'd be a higher amount in your system and will take longer to get out of your system. If you need this out if your system for a drug test give yourself AT LEAST one full week for a one time dose. If you've been on the medication for a while, you'll need a few weeks before your system is clean of it. If you just want to know so you know how long to wait before you can start taking opiates/narcotics again, wait at least 48 hours but you'll most likely have to take a larger dose than usual to get anywhere near the same effect as before.

How much of a suboxone do you do to start working?

2mg


2mg of suboxone would equal how many percocets?

2mg of Suboxone = 0 percocets. They have a completely different "feeling" and contain a totally different drug. Suboxone does not get you high. It only alleviates the negative symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. Suboxone is also not an opiate, therefore you cannot create a standard such as "1 Suboxone = 1 Percocet" or whatever. Apples and Oranges.

How many mg is a orange suboxone?

There are 2 doses of suboxone currently available in the u.s., both are orange, lemon-lime flavored, and have 6 sides. The smaller of the 2 is 2mg/.5mg and the larger of the 2 is 8mg/2mg. The ratio is always 4:1 (Buprenorphine HCl : naloxone HCl)


I need To take oxycodone for a tooth problem how long do you need to be off suboxone for the oxycodone to work?

the half life of suboxone is 36 hours. So 72 hours would eliminate the suboxone from you entirely. But depending on your dose you could have oxycodone work sooner. Example if your mu receptors are not filled (2mg suboxone or below). But all in all you will have to wait a full two days before the oxycodone will work to your satisfaction, to my expierence.

What is the Difference between 4mg-2mg suboxone and 2mg-0.5 suboxone?

Honestly there's hardly any IF AT ALL of a difference...that's if ur meaning as far as detoxing. If u meant the shape or size of the pill then a "big looking stop sign" is 8mg, so it's sectioned off into 4 pieces if u need it to be. Half of the 8mg,which is obviously 4mg, will look like half of a stop sign & break it again & it'll be 2mg. Now they have the little suboxones, which are 2mg each. Hope that helps!

Will 2mg of suboxone block heroin?

Yes, even a small dose will block the high you normally get from heroin. Adding heroin to Suboxone can have a dangerous additive effect. Many people have died from trying to get high while on a replacement drug.


Can 2mg Suboxone be mixed with smoking opium?

Taking Suboxone with any other opiate is a really bad idea, because Suboxone blocks the opiate receptors in your brain, making it impossible to get high from other opiates. Taking Suboxone with other opiates won't get you higher -- in fact, it will do the opposite. Just 2mgs of Suboxone probably isn't enough to completely kill your high, but the high will certainly be less intense. Forget about the Suboxone, and just do the opium by itself.
