Hi
I'm transferring from
methadone to subutex, coming from a relatively high meth dose (55 mg.). I think my doctor is fairly clueless, so I need some good advice here.
From what I've read, I shouldn't have dosed with subutex so soon after my last Methadone dose. I took 4 mg. subutex 48 hrs. after my last dose of Methadone, which was a half dose (~27 mg.). My doctor, btw, told me I could take it after 24 hrs.! But at 48 hrs., it didn't seem to do me any harm. I mean, I'm sick no matter what - either from meth withdrawls, or from bupe antagonism - who can tell? Anyway, it wasn't any worse. But here's the question: at 60 hrs., after another 8 mgs., I'm still sick. Can I get my sick off by taking a much larger dose of subutex, or am I gonna be sick no matter what? I know how heroin or
morphine would work, but this stuff is different, and I don't know what to do. TIA!
