I know suboxone is used to get off vicodin! how long should you wait before going back to the vicodin?

If you are taking these medications then I'm sure they were prescribed by a Physician so you should call your Physician and ask him this question.

Not sure if it depends on how long you take the suboxone, but I know someone that can get high off the vicodin about 4-5 days after not taking suboxone..... you can take it with the suboxone of you want, it will still help with pain, but you wont feel the "high " if that is what you are asking.

This is a very important question. Suboxone has an opiate blocker in it and you should be in moderate withdrawal before taking the suboxone. Once you are on it, if you do take Vicoden, it won't do anything. You basically have to wait for the suboxone to clear your system before you will feel the effects of vicoden. If you take the vicoden too early it won;t hurt you, it just won't do anything.
