    So true. You don’t need to go on 24 mg. of suboxone no matter how much
    other pain meds you where taking. It’s just going to be that much harder to
    get off of if you start at a high dose.?

  • chris oconnor:

    why dont they just let us by suboxone over the counter so many people need
    it,they turn to hard drugs beecaue they have no choice ?

  • Jenna Miller:

    I’ve been taking suboxone, I’ve had two rounds of it in the past 4 years
    with methadone in between, with this being my last (I’ll be detoxing for
    the second time ever, here very soon…yay can’t wait! Psyching myself up
    lol..) So I’ve brought myself down all the way from a strip and a quarter
    as my “doctor ordered”, down to less than a half strip a day, all by
    myself, still tapering at the moment, but it works perfectly for me this
    way.. I love taking minute pieces throughout the day, as needed because
    that’s the only way I myself, can function at my full potential! And I wind
    up using so much less than supposedly was “needed” in the first place! I
    know that it is used mainly for long term treatment, but honestly, SHORT
    TERM is absolutely the way to go! Needs to be taught to the dr’s though!!! ?

    I think if you are a patient , and you are in your very first induction
    stage , this is the way to go . Stay in the withdrawal stage from the
    short-acting opiates . In short , this will alleviate withdrawal and keep
    you from becoming dependent on the Suboxone . If taken right you can the
    withdrawal stage can be eliminated in a few short days . The object of the
    game is to get to a point where you are taking nothing , and let therapy
    take care of the rest . Look around the web and you will get what I’m
    saying , you don’t want to exchange short acting opiates for long acting
    . ?
