Indeem! Using naloxon-bupe you don't solve the problem of mixing with other stuff(benzo.pine-related for example). By the way, his wrong about safe use buprenorphine "after 48 hours after last dose of opioids".

@@KussDamato yea ppl dont understand that the naloxone is just so ppl dont abuse it. the actions of the bupe is the thing that causes precipitated w/d's
You do NOT go into withdrawal but snorting suboxone. I just tuted a line of a tablet. Use to snort pieces of the strips for a nice rush. So that is definitely not true.
Buprenorphine will out compete naloxone for the mu receptors so if you're dependent on another opioid & were to try to inject suboxone it ain't the naloxone that's gonna bite you. I'm surprised by how many prescribers know so little about this stuff.
Yes, the naloxone is both outcompeted and not bioavailable if taken as prescribed, but even still the buprenorphine will outcompete the naloxone for the mu and kappa receptors due to its incredibly high binding affinity and long half-life. Thanks for sharing this.
You're right. I don't know why they have to mix two together since buprenorphine always wins no matter which route you use to get Suboxone into the system. I guess it's all about profit for Big pharma, since the drug is very expensive, especially in the US. I live in Canada. Here l pay $22 every 4 weeks for generic Suboxone and about $50 for the high quality one (56pills, 8mg each, which equals to 16mg per day). I noticed no difference in the way it works, except that the non-generic one tastes better taken sublingually. I had no difficulty going from 24mg to 16mg a day. It helped a lot with my pain management but made me extremely constipated, hence the dose change. I hear all these horror stories about quitting Suboxone. So maybe in especially difficult cases it's better to switch to another medication (methadone?) before quitting for good. Just a suggestion. As for myself, l have to stay on opioids for the rest of my life due to chronic back pain. I am not complaining though since, in my experience at least, opioids were the blessing. I can lead a normal productive life, which I guess can be shorter due to all the meds l am taking. However, l prefer good quality shorter life to a long dreary existence l had before my pain was well under control. Good luck everybody;)

I had NO IDEA what I was getting into! I’ve even stopped cold turkey. That got me into the ICU for six days. Then I went 41 days without Suboxone. I thought I was going to die. Almost no blood pressure and felt like death for 41 days. I finally went back to the prescribing MD. “You can’t cold turkey Suboxone, it can take years to taper properly.” Funny how he never told me this BEFORE he prescribed it to me.

Yesterday, I learned I have stage two colon cancer. Suboxone literally killed me. Yes, I guess Suboxone has saved the lives of chronic heroin users.

Look.. I was using suboxone 5 months.. 3 months every day about 2mg daily.. And I had motorcycle crash 8 days before where I had my leg broken on 3 places and i had emergency surgery now i had fixators.. Problem is that i did not admit to doctors i was using suboxone and pain killers i got for my leg is not enough, i have hard time sleeping, it's 8 day today without it and I'm confused what to do and when withdrawls are going to end?
The longer you take suboxone the longer it takes to do the rattle off it, if you on it a year it'll take a year to wean yourself off, you'll be I'll for a year in other words
One of the first thing Hospital do when you get there for severed pain issue , is take a blood test or urine test if you show any ilegal drugs not prescribe by your Doctor , they kick you out or call security to escort you out even with great insurance , they don't care if you live or die .
It's Hospital policy ever since this opiate pain withdraw , they don't want to deal with it , go to a detox they tell you . sorry and will call security , these people know it here , just in denial .
stop it. opioids may be destroying many lifes but they are just as much saving lifes. i have a extremely extremely horrible neurological condition. a condition that makes you want to paint the walls with your head and a shotgun. opioids saved my life. yes, the company is pure corruption but just because you people got addicted to it doesn't mean the drugs are evil.
So if I am taking Suboxone, and had a mess up last night and tryed meth can I take my 8mg Suboxone that is subcribe to me? It is not easy. But not feeling so well.
Whether it's methadone or methamphetamine doesn't matter. You can still safely take the suboxone. Even if she took methadone, a single dose isn't going to mean that she's now addicted to the full opiate agonist (methadone). I take methadone every day, so taking suboxone would induce crippling withdrawal symptoms.
He is wrong on the dosing . You can take up to 32 mg a day some ppl are at 40 mg a day . Whatever you need to get sober . You don’t take it all at once it is devided up throughout the day . So 16 mg twice a day .
Lol good gravy that’s wayyy to much . No reason anyone should really be taking more than 8mg a day. In time you’ll find that out . Or your body will let you know . God speed brother 🙏
Why is it, that it doesn't matter how much subutex/suboxone i take it does not block opiates. Am I yuneec or something. I can take 24mg of buprenorphine and still feel my Oxy no problem.
I wish I could,I did my 8 mg Subutex like 10 hours before I crushed and snorted a 20 mg oxycodone. I swear I felt nothing.i wonder if being on Subutex for 6 years messes up those receptors permanently. I had a shot of Dilaudid in the hospital recently because I have stage 4 cancer. I felt nothing, laying there wide awake.
@@الحياهحلوه-ر7خ I'm still currently on it. I hoping I'll be on it the rest of my life. It's better than the alternative for me. I'm living a normal lifestyle for once. I take 2 Day.
It works great. The taste is something that takes a while to get use to but it's worth it. I have no cravings what so ever. It's actually a miracle drug in my opinion.
lol that's not true at all. i know people that take other opiates while taking suboxone and i know people that don't do any drugs at all. not even drink or smoke.
@@joeymcallister8033 even though i got to a neurologist for my seizures to get my klonpin and a pain clinic that treats my broken lumbar spine for my subutex(all doctors know everything im taking)ive known a few people who go to addict maintenance clinics and get both suboxone and klonopin from the same addict treating doctor with no other conditions other than being addicted to opioids.
Ronny Clayton Really? I had a brain surgery in 1995 /aneurysm/ and horrible cronic pain. I got painkillers and suddenly not but I did not know how to handle my pain. I worked with the govt so methadone program and sub was not an option. My private GP subscribed my meds but nothing. I bought methadone pills from a friend of mine /approx 10-30 mg per day depending what she was able to save for me. Then I was fed up, Resigned. Moved to another EU country AND I am officially on methadone 40-50mg pd. I was and am about to switch to Sub. IS IT REALLY SO GOOD FOR PAIN, /I also had seizures Im on diazepam 4 mg pd/ but methadone is sooo good for pain and mood but but I can collect only a week dosage and suboxone maybe the long term solution. How is it?
@@joeymcallister8033 I was on benxos /Xanax/since 1995. Huuge dosage like 40=70 mg pd. So I was hospitalized 3 times for detox. no way. I have to take diazepam life long since I had seizures. Opiate withdrawal is a walk in the park.
Hey DR Ken Can you Do Carisoprodol (SOMA muscle relaxant ) which is metabolized into Miltown (Mebrphomate). Miltown was known as 'Mothers Little Helper" in the 1950's
@@gristamshackleford2102 nope, mothers little helper was diazepam which first came out in the sixties as a substitute for barbiturates. It was marketed as non addictive so doctors would prescribe it profusely. Particularly to women who they thought were prone to a nervous disposition because of their hormones or maybe a cold unloving husband or delinquent kids. Dexedrine which was also profusely prescribed in the sixties to women wanting to shift a few pounds, got names like Purple Hearts and in the U.K. particularly they were known as Black Bombers. When subverted for recreational use the pills were crushed up to destroy the ingredient that made the drug time released, giving the user a rush of energy, heightened sex drive and general euphoria. Bombers, dexies, Purple Hearts etc were very popular amongst mods and rockers at that time. Later in the U.K. illegally manufactured amphetamine sulphate and amphetamine hydrochloride became widely available. Both were habit forming, the hydrochloride was especially potent and could be dangerous, long term use causing great harm.
@@gristamshackleford2102 their song about dexies or speed pills was nineteenth nervous breakdown. I’m pretty sure mothers little helper referred the yellow 5mg diazepam tablets, I know Wikipedia isn’t the font of all wisdom but I think we can say that it represents popular culture quite wellI en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mother%27s_Little_Helper

No, you do not get abstinence from snorting Suboxone. Instead of having an effect within 20 minutes, it takes about 40 minutes. Probably because Naloxone is blocking, yes, but you do not get abstinence
Chris Cantwayy. Did u get your answer? OUD has been deemed a medical condition. All medical professionals are entitled to any medical treatment same as anyone else. I don’t think I would advertise it though. Just to double check tell him to speak with his human resource department.

Trouble with getting off a long-term dose with this where am currently is that they only reduce in 2 MG'S! Not 0.2 etc when the dose gets lower! Due to funding. Otherwise when came off it before didn't find it too bad tbh SICK of it now and just glad (touch wood) never abused it (apart from taking too much of it), but it does give a buzz! Almost like some sort of Opiatey Phet tbh. My cheeks look like a beetroot after being on Subutex (not Suboxone) for nearly a decade + my insides feel wrecked. Been told by various GP's etc that many stay on it until Death! '@ the end of the day' though at least it's not such a grimey life as Gear and been able to get some sort of life back. Glad this geezer in vid' knows the score/Interesting comments. Respected.👍
@Fast Internet = Will try it, but when seen people snorting it they just crushed it up! Popular too. I think I get ya drift with not much water either.
I don’t like this guy. I don’t like the way he talks about addicts and dismisses the effects of withdrawal. He has no idea what coming off a high dose of methadone is like. He’s probably a hardcore Republican. My father is a doctor who works with addicts he has a far kinder bedside manner and doesn’t come across as a judgemental egg head. I would not like to be treated by this man. In my opinion drugs should be decriminalised. Portugal is a great example of this can work well. I also just don’t like the way this man talks. Naloxone is a cruel additive. This man really strikes me as a kind of Mengele type, the way he views people, human beings as lab rats, nothing more than fascinating experiments. He comes across as devoid of kindness and compassion for people with the disease of addiction. How lucky for him that he’s a privileged, straight white guy with obvious intellectual ability.
No worries of more videos he died. I agreed with some of what he said but not all. Billions of us on this earth can’t all agree on everything all the time. I’ve had an East Indian pain mgmt and non Caucasian female doctor all who had similar beliefs and attitude to opioids and Buprenorphine/suboxone. Can be age, cultural, part of clinic/hosp protocol, hosp they studied/trained at etc.
I just recently got clean and started taking my subs correctly. Would you recommend getting off that too or should I just keep going with it? I went through hell coming of what I was on and I really don't want to go through withdraw from the subs

I’ve been on Suboxone two times all the times it was very good until I was met by my doctor and psychiatrist with anger towards the fact that I chose to get on Suboxone I was shamed and threatened by them both times to the point where I called turkey off The cold turkey was very dangerous and it was horrendous and I almost had a psychiatric event they didn’t care they were happy when I told them it was out of my system and I’m sorry I did that now I’m dependent on opioids and adderall again and they’re just fine with that

Look.. I was using suboxone 5 months.. 3 months every day about 2mg daily.. And I had motorcycle crash 8 days before where I had my leg broken on 3 places and i had emergency surgery now i had fixators.. Problem is that i did not admit to doctors i was using suboxone and pain killers i got for my leg is not enough, i have hard time sleeping, it's 8 day today without it and I'm confused what to do and when withdrawls are going to end?
The longer you take suboxone the longer it takes to do the rattle off it, if you on it a year it'll take a year to wean yourself off, you'll be I'll for a year in other words
the buprenorphine kicks opiates off receptors also not just naloxone.
Yes and the nalaxone only lasts 30 minutes
This stuff saved my life!!!!!!!!

Come see me
Such a wonderful knowledgeable Dr. RIP sir
so this drug being in the wrong hands and being used on someone that isent a drug user could make that victum look like a drug user?
One of the first thing Hospital do when you get there for severed pain issue , is take a blood test or urine test if you show any ilegal drugs not prescribe by your Doctor , they kick you out or call security to escort you out even with great insurance , they don't care if you live or die .
@@hardcandy7112 oh thats scary r u sure?
It's Hospital policy ever since this opiate pain withdraw , they don't want to deal with it , go to a detox they tell you . sorry and will call security , these people know it here , just in denial .
um, i have never heard of what they're talking about 👆🏼
HardCandy711 you don’t know what you’re talking about. Hospitals will check
To see why you’re in pain and go from there. Geez!
Naloxone can't kick buprenorphine from the μυ receptor... maybe nothing can if not in huge dosages! Am I wrong?
I believe the buprenorphine is more stronger than naloxone. Making the naloxone ineffective. I agree with u.
The same people Purdue pharama hold the patent for oxycontin and suboxone coincidence I think not
Saying this for years
stop it. opioids may be destroying many lifes but they are just as much saving lifes. i have a extremely extremely horrible neurological condition. a condition that makes you want to paint the walls with your head and a shotgun. opioids saved my life. yes, the company is pure corruption but just because you people got addicted to it doesn't mean the drugs are evil.
So if I am taking Suboxone, and had a mess up last night and tryed meth can I take my 8mg Suboxone that is subcribe to me? It is not easy. But not feeling so well.
Methadone or crystal meth?
That's what I thought
Whether it's methadone or methamphetamine doesn't matter. You can still safely take the suboxone. Even if she took methadone, a single dose isn't going to mean that she's now addicted to the full opiate agonist (methadone). I take methadone every day, so taking suboxone would induce crippling withdrawal symptoms.
He is wrong on the dosing . You can take up to 32 mg a day some ppl are at 40 mg a day . Whatever you need to get sober . You don’t take it all at once it is devided up throughout the day . So 16 mg twice a day .
40 mg??? haha unnecessarily! :)
Lol good gravy that’s wayyy to much . No reason anyone should really be taking more than 8mg a day. In time you’ll find that out . Or your body will let you know . God speed brother 🙏
Why is it, that it doesn't matter how much subutex/suboxone i take it does not block opiates. Am I yuneec or something. I can take 24mg of buprenorphine and still feel my Oxy no problem.
I wish I could,I did my 8 mg Subutex like 10 hours before I crushed and snorted a 20 mg oxycodone.
I swear I felt nothing.i wonder if being on Subutex for 6 years messes up those receptors permanently.
I had a shot of Dilaudid in the hospital recently because I have stage 4 cancer. I felt nothing, laying there wide awake.
Suboxone has saved my life!
how did it work? was it easy or hard? im about start but worried of the withdrawal symptoms
@@الحياهحلوه-ر7خ I'm still currently on it. I hoping I'll be on it the rest of my life. It's better than the alternative for me. I'm living a normal lifestyle for once. I take 2 Day.
It works great. The taste is something that takes a while to get use to but it's worth it. I have no cravings what so ever. It's actually a miracle drug in my opinion.
how long do you have to take it to get the opioids out your system?
You mean the withdrawal
People on Suboxone dont do other opiates but.....Alot of them take other drugs.
lol that's not true at all. i know people that take other opiates while taking suboxone and i know people that don't do any drugs at all. not even drink or smoke.
I take subutex 8mg twice a day for pain,works better with my epilepsy seizure medecine(klonopin 6mg a day)
Would you know if i only take 1mg of suboxone a day if i stop it would be out of my system in 5 days?
Who is giving you people Benzos on buprenorphine?
@@joeymcallister8033 even though i got to a neurologist for my seizures to get my klonpin and a pain clinic that treats my broken lumbar spine for my subutex(all doctors know everything im taking)ive known a few people who go to addict maintenance clinics and get both suboxone and klonopin from the same addict treating doctor with no other conditions other than being addicted to opioids.
Ronny Clayton Really? I had a brain surgery in 1995 /aneurysm/ and horrible cronic pain. I got painkillers and suddenly not but I did not know how to handle my pain. I worked with the govt so methadone program and sub was not an option. My private GP subscribed my meds but nothing. I bought methadone pills from a friend of mine /approx 10-30 mg per day depending what she was able to save for me. Then I was fed up, Resigned. Moved to another EU country AND I am officially on methadone 40-50mg pd. I was and am about to switch to Sub. IS IT REALLY SO GOOD FOR PAIN, /I also had seizures Im on diazepam 4 mg pd/ but methadone is sooo good for pain and mood but but I can collect only a week dosage and suboxone maybe the long term solution. How is it?
@@joeymcallister8033 I was on benxos /Xanax/since 1995. Huuge dosage like 40=70 mg pd. So I was hospitalized 3 times for detox. no way. I have to take diazepam life long since I had seizures. Opiate withdrawal is a walk in the park.
Hey DR Ken Can you Do Carisoprodol (SOMA muscle relaxant ) which is metabolized into Miltown (Mebrphomate). Miltown was known as 'Mothers Little Helper" in the 1950's
Whats a miltown, milwaukee?
mothers little helper was a little yellow speed pill. but the original one was laudanum used in the 1800s to quite crying children
@@gristamshackleford2102 nope, mothers little helper was diazepam which first came out in the sixties as a substitute for barbiturates. It was marketed as non addictive so doctors would prescribe it profusely. Particularly to women who they thought were prone to a nervous disposition because of their hormones or maybe a cold unloving husband or delinquent kids.
Dexedrine which was also profusely prescribed in the sixties to women wanting to shift a few pounds, got names like Purple Hearts and in the U.K. particularly they were known as Black Bombers. When subverted for recreational use the pills were crushed up to destroy the ingredient that made the drug time released, giving the user a rush of energy, heightened sex drive and general euphoria. Bombers, dexies, Purple Hearts etc were very popular amongst mods and rockers at that time. Later in the U.K. illegally manufactured amphetamine sulphate and amphetamine hydrochloride became widely available. Both were habit forming, the hydrochloride was especially potent and could be dangerous, long term use causing great harm.
@@jackmcgregor1983 i'm pretty sure the rolling stones song of that name was referring to an upper.
@@gristamshackleford2102 their song about dexies or speed pills was nineteenth nervous breakdown. I’m pretty sure mothers little helper referred the yellow 5mg diazepam tablets, I know Wikipedia isn’t the font of all wisdom but I think we can say that it represents popular culture quite wellI

I broke 3 ribs 2 days ago...and have been prescribed 15mg morphine.I took my last 8mg suboxone 2 days ago also.How soon can I begin taking my pain meds and feel them helping with the pain?
im late but did you still need advice?
@@pat_fussyx please.....
@@timshannon3197 how many days since surgery? how bad is the pain 1-10? & how much suboxone do you take a day?
@@pat_fussyx no surgery,but the hospital gave me a small script of morphine for the pain and when the pain hits...it's a 10 easily.I've been taking 16mg a day of suboxone for the last 3 years.I haven't been able to go more than 48hrs without a suboxone for the withdrawl but have these 15mg morphine sulfate pills from the doc but I've been afraid to take with the subs,for fear of throwing me into withdraws...what should I do? And thank u for ur time.
@@pat_fussyx broke 3 ribs but no surgery...have pain medication but afraid it'd throw me into withdraws so I've just been miserable for the past week bc subs don't touch the pain.
No, you do not get abstinence from snorting Suboxone. Instead of having an effect within 20 minutes, it takes about 40 minutes. Probably because Naloxone is blocking, yes, but you do not get abstinence
Same with injection you don't feel it hit but it comes on and peaks hours after administration
Chris Cantwayy. Did u get your answer? OUD has been deemed a medical condition. All medical professionals are entitled to any medical treatment same as anyone else. I don’t think I would advertise it though. Just to double check tell him to speak with his human resource department.
Do you have anything on methadone
R u a dr a online?
I want to take just Subutex instead of Suboxone how do I do that
I need help I can find a answer anywere can nurses be on mat suboxone treatment while working ? It's a low dose and it's my friend and he's deathly scared of getting help or asking any of his colleagues and it's impossible to find this information please help😔
I need to find a doctor prescribs burpenifen naloxone
Had genetic testing done .It said the recommended drugs for me are Belbucca or suboxone
You lost me at "maintenance could be indefinite". C'mon, man.
I will NEVER go back to Subs. Period. Shit is worse then kicking the H
I don't think Suboxone is any different from them selling herion in the early 1900s. Same purpose. Money
I don't generally take a person's opinions about a subject seriously if they aren't even able to spell it
Lol YES!!!
Sounds like he's pro buprenorphine!!. Does not work on all pain or I'm on the wrong dose. I'm a chronic pain patient. Not a illicit drug addict
Yes it does. Low dose very effective.
Is he for real??
Heroin itself is in the D.O.C. Actually, it's a good thing Suboxone is in their system and Not heroin,ect.
the worst side effect is sweating 😓
First the problem is chemical then comes the behavioral, then the most important part where people relapse learning how to live correctly
let;s get everyone Hooked on it.
Thank fuck I got off that shit years ago and it was the worst 6 months of my life even at 0,01mg
You guys giving people that shit naloxone cuz doctor think patient might abuse if bups given alone!!! What a joke, if 2 out of 10 abused it why remaining 8 treated same way
The naloxone makes it worse? How can I get just bupe
Straight Talk. This guy knows his Information totally I can say consultant you're doctor if you believe this describes you're self or someone you know. A true cure. Feel no need for anything but your new fay
Actually meant Day not fay
Trouble with getting off a long-term dose with this where am currently is that they only reduce in 2 MG'S! Not 0.2 etc when the dose gets lower! Due to funding. Otherwise when came off it before didn't find it too bad tbh
SICK of it now and just glad (touch wood) never abused it (apart from taking too much of it), but it does give a buzz! Almost like some sort of Opiatey Phet tbh.
My cheeks look like a beetroot after being on Subutex (not Suboxone) for nearly a decade + my insides feel wrecked. Been told by various GP's etc that many stay on it until Death! '@ the end of the day' though at least it's not such a grimey life as Gear and been able to get some sort of life back.
Glad this geezer in vid' knows the score/Interesting comments. Respected.👍
LoL. Nah, but cheers for the Murder by TH-cam advice anyway.👍
@Fast Internet = Will try it, but when seen people snorting it they just crushed it up! Popular too. I think I get ya drift with not much water either.
Helps with ghb withdrawal I’ve noticed
I don’t like this guy. I don’t like the way he talks about addicts and dismisses the effects of withdrawal. He has no idea what coming off a high dose of methadone is like. He’s probably a hardcore Republican. My father is a doctor who works with addicts he has a far kinder bedside manner and doesn’t come across as a judgemental egg head. I would not like to be treated by this man. In my opinion drugs should be decriminalised. Portugal is a great example of this can work well. I also just don’t like the way this man talks. Naloxone is a cruel additive. This man really strikes me as a kind of Mengele type, the way he views people, human beings as lab rats, nothing more than fascinating experiments. He comes across as devoid of kindness and compassion for people with the disease of addiction. How lucky for him that he’s a privileged, straight white guy with obvious intellectual ability.
He grew up in a generation that was told to go outside, not prescribed pills. Nothing to do with being a Republican or not.
Facts is what he is stating don’t be afraid of facts. Suboxone Saved my life been on it for 15 years working and enjoying life and family.
No worries of more videos he died. I agreed with some of what he said but not all. Billions of us on this earth can’t all agree on everything all the time. I’ve had an East Indian pain mgmt and non Caucasian female doctor all who had similar beliefs and attitude to opioids and Buprenorphine/suboxone. Can be age, cultural, part of clinic/hosp protocol, hosp they studied/trained at etc.
Truth and knowledge hurts huh? go outside kid. and stay on whatever med's you take, that you clearly weren't taking during commenting.
I think kratom has helped some people with withdrawal
Suboxone is classified as a DEA scheduel 3 controlled substance.
People in my area call these "Butes".
i dont like suboxone the fake bitter orange flavor
Withdrawal rivals none
I just recently got clean and started taking my subs correctly. Would you recommend getting off that too or should I just keep going with it? I went through hell coming of what I was on and I really don't want to go through withdraw from the subs
@@danielbishop2611 Me too on subs and I'm Reading this comments and now I'm anxious I'm afraid for being on suboxone now don't know what to do because when I try to get tapper afraid of withdrawal symptoms
Subutex 8mg gets me fucked up when I pop em 😂
How do I get the Subutex instead of the Suboxone?
Suboxone is terrible!!! Took myself off of it after one week...I’d rather kick my Norco’s!!
Dissolves in five minutes lol that doesn’t happen
I’ve been on Suboxone two times all the times it was very good until I was met by my doctor and psychiatrist with anger towards the fact that I chose to get on Suboxone I was shamed and threatened by them both times to the point where I called turkey off The cold turkey was very dangerous and it was horrendous and I almost had a psychiatric event they didn’t care they were happy when I told them it was out of my system and I’m sorry I did that now I’m dependent on opioids and adderall again and they’re just fine with that
Buprenorphine is more expensive than heroin??? What? Hell no
for example betwen 10to20e one tablet
8mg
@@goranmartinko3328 What?? Haha. I dont understand
I crush my sub pills all the time. Never went to into withdrawal
You forgot to tell them that suboxone is 10 times for addictive than heroin and twice as addictive as methadone!!
