to make a long story short, i had a year and a half sober and relapsed on vics, then switched to oxys 80s. i was out since my surgery in january.it started getting real bad about 2 months ago when i started shooting oxys and dilaudid, i thought i would never touch a needle again, but i always seem to do it. anyway, i started pickin and lookin like **** QUICK. so exactly 3 weeks ago i detoxed at home using suboxone. i only had 5 8mg ones. they helped big time. i have nobody to talk to about this but after that horrible week of kicking, after i had tapered down the sub, i relapsed one day here, one day there, meaning i wasnt strung out. but last week i shot up at least once everyday,SO here i go again. i got about 4 subs and i started tuesday. is my kick gonna be as bad as the first, and how much sub should i take? and how long?i dont wanna get hooked on them. but does suboxone even work for a 3/4 day detox?if so how do i do it? my last dilaudid was on monday at midnight. my first sub was taken on tuesday at like 9pm(4mg), today is wednesday and ive had 8Mg.on top of all of this i have strep throat!

Hi...don't uderstand wt ur taking but my husband is an on & off Heroin addict. Wat I no about Suboxone is that its spzd 2 block ur brain receptors 2 ask 4 wat ur addict 2. Don't no wat ur Docs told u but u can be on Suboxone 4 as long as u need it & slowly come off Suboxone eg; ur on 8mg...every wk drop 1mg till uve reached 1mg. U also need 2no that Suboxone tablets have Opiates in them(which is wat Heroin is) then ur body withdraws off the 1mg. Which hopefully won't be as painful as wat ur coming off.
