i had a 6 yr
lortab and
oxycodone habit my wifes cousin gave her 10
suboxone 8 mg and a piece of paper that told me to take one a day and then taper down over a three week period and told me not to take the first one until i was into full withdrawl 18 hours after your last opiate so i waited 18 hours and i was feeling really ********************py so i took the suboxone and felt better within a half an hour,the suboxone has a long half life 37 hours well while i was feeling good that day i did alot of reading up on suboxone and all the horror stories that go with it,they say that the withdrawls from suboxone are worse than opiates.This is what i did i was on lortab 10 mg 150 a month 5 a day for five years and then had my doctor switch them too oxycodone 30 mg 120 a month 4 a day i did that for 1 year and then decided i didnt want them in my life anymore and weened down from 4 to 3 to 1 and then took that one suboxone 8 mg all in a matter of four days i did this and havnt touched anything since 2-5-08 that was when i took that one suboxone on that day i just didnt want to switch one drug for another soo if you can do it this way i would advise it because suboxone is some bad stuff to try to quit worse than opiatesGOOD LUCK
