Suboxone does nothing for benzodiazapine addiction and you are way out of your league with suboxone. 3 months of oxycodone abuse is nothing man. I know it is hard to think of not taking these pills again but believe me, you would be far better off to either enter a detox/rehab or if you can't do that then look up "The Thomas Recipe" and stop using that.
Buprenorphine is meant for people with significant opiate addictions.
You are very lucky as you are on a small dose of only 180 mgs a day.
So what I'm trying to tell you is stay away from the suboxone or you really will have a problem.
As for the benzodiazapine (xanax) problem, suboxone does nothing for that. You have to be very careful coming of this type of drug as you can have serious problems such as grand mal seizures ect. It is recommended that benzodiazapine addicts seek professional help as in a rehab. Otherwise you could be headed for major trouble.
Good luck and I hope you get into a rehab as it is your best bet at this point in your abuse problem... Hang tight..Dave

Thanks Dave, years ago I was for 25 years abig time junkie, got away from it in 92 and just had a total knee replacement which started everything again. Can I detox useing suboxone in 3 to 4 days? Starting with 4 mls. and cutting down to no suboxone?
Only if a doctor prescribes it and not someone who gave you them. This stuff isn't something to fuck with. I mean you really need to bite the bullet and take the 3 or 4 days that you will feel a little sick. Do this now before you really do develop into a full blown addict.
The benzo problem is something that you really need to seek professional help. You will go nowhere listening to your buddies, they mean well but they are not educated in addiction or drug (pharmaceuticals).
Trying to get around withdrawals with a drug that is 50 times stronger then oxycodone just doesn't make sense. Man up and take the couple days you won't feel well. Do it now because another year of this and you will be doing a lot more then you are now and likely you won't even take oxycodone because it is to weak for full blown addicts.
I'm trying to give you a chance here to get out of this without rolling backwards instead of forward... Really think this through and read up on these drugs and educate yourself... Dave
