Can I kick drugs by taking suboxone for only 4-7 days?
I was taking a small dose opiate for years for diarrhea now that I am addicted to that I started taking percocets to help me get off the other drug. I only took the percocets for about 3 days at relatively high doses because I always felt the withdraw 2 3 hrs after taking the Percocet. I have 4 suboxone and have taken 1 already half morning half night but I will run out. Since I am not a heroin addicted or not a huge user of painkillers will I be OK by the 5 th day?

Questions about suboxone withdrawal?
My fianc has been going to a rehab clinic & getting suboxone for about 3 years now for oxycontin addiction . We are getting married in April and he has decided this would be a good time to get off the suboxone of course I am all for it because after all the research I have done, I have concluded 3 years is wayyyyy too long it is supposed to take about 6 months to finish this type of program . Well he has been doing things the right way instead of quitting cold turkey, he has been tapering down. I don t know much about the doses & things like that. Today he said he took his last pill. He has already started feeling crappy withdrawal . He said he has a headache, body ache and can t sleep. I don t know how to help him because I have NO IDEA what he is going through. I have done a ton of research but I have never had an addiction myself so it is different. Also, I am afraid because he said the suboxone was his " security blanket" why his fiance and child aren't enough of a " security blanket" , I don't know and he is saying he is doing this for me. I am afraid he might go back to drugs and I will feel like it's my fault. Any advice?

The Transition to Suboxone from Methadone?
Just looking for a little quick advice about my switch from Methadone to Suboxone from anyone that has been through the same thing or any experience with it. Have been on methadone for the past year at 30mg then weened down to 5mg and took my last dose last monday. The earliest I could get in to see the suboxone doctor was wednesday, tomorrow. So i had to wait about 8 days. I have been using opanas this week to get by and i got a suboxone saturday to use. I know I have to be in withdrawals at my appointment but i got an Opana 40 this morning and just finished it off. My appt is at 1 45 so that gives me about 18 hours do you think I will be alright and they will go me my Suboxone? Also I have only used Suboxone a handful of times so not too familiar with it's effects over long time usage? I know it helps with the cravings but do you also have the buzz from other pain killers so you have no desire to use whatsoever? I'm 21 year old male and was using oxys for about 2 years anywhere from 80 a couple hundred miligrams a day. Then i got introduced to opanas about a year ago and was doing 1 2 opana 40mg pills a day so on average 60 80mg. This is the same time i started on methadone also so i was doing methadone and opana daily. Switching from using oxys to methadone and opana together has really up my tolerance which im sure is obvious. Just any insightful info about the transition from methadone to suboxone and what to expect would be much appreciated? also what dose do you think i'll be started on? FYI im currently prescribed 40mg of adderall instant release a day for a little more background info.Keep your judgmental comments and any jack advice to yourself about how i'm a junkie or ruining my life with opiates please. Heard it all before. Thanks in advance for all your help
