You Can Take Benzos While Your On Suboxone
(Newest posts first)

I've been seeing alot of posts regarding taking benzos while on Suboxone.It is ok to take a benzo w/suboxone as long as you're taking the subscribed dosages you'll be fine.Now if your taking 3 or 4 8mgs of Suboxone an say 5or 6 Xanax that's not good,tha's where the repored deaths have come from.I've been on Subs for 5 yrs ive been subscribed klonopin an currently taking valium w/it a it's fine,I'm on a low dose an only take what i am perscribed.

1st of all u can't shoot benzos. They r not "water sol." Hospitals have liquid forms of it. That's the only way to shoot benzos. U can inject subutex. U cannot inject soboxone. Bottom. Line is that no of us are doctors, and if there is a gourmet where u have to ask. this question its probably dangerous

My doctor that prescribes the subs told my If I take my clonazepam he cannot give me carries, benzos are more addictive and dangerous than opiates. Combining opiates and benzos does have a chance of death.

Lol "subscribed"? You are obviously no med expert due to your lack of correct vocabulary. I just read a post from you on another site asking about the valiume script you got from your doc by "forgetting" to mention to him that you being "subscribed" subs from another doc. I hate reading posts from people who are basicly asking "is it safe to get high on these drugs combined". You didnt forget to tell your doc about the subs dude you just wanted a benzo script to boost your subs. By the way most patients get thier anxiety meds and subs from the same doc, which in most cases low mg seraquel or high mg buspar is prescribed. You are one of those looking for a loophole in my program type of people. I see people in groups all the time nodding off on thier prescribed klonopin and subs valiume and subs ativan and subs they all do the same thing, get you high. Might as well stop fooling yourself.

klonopin is very very weak in my eyes..my DR. put me on them for 1 month and then he swittched me to xanax...they work WAY better!!

Not to get all "high horse" (no pun intended, but I think most older drug users are not trying to "get wasted". They're trying to control how they feel at any given moment, for a specific reason. I might double my Klonopin if I have a huge presention or a heavy workload.

100 years ago, anyone could walk into the "chemists" and access whatever substance they felt they needed. Sure, a few idiots overdosed, but MANY notable historical figures that have given back plenty to society would be considered "junkies" today.

Somehow we the people allowed the powers that be in the 20th century to create a culture of control.

RE: Valiums - I'm on 16 mg of Suboxone per day and a I also take asst. benos for anxienty. Valium is the ONLY one I can't feel at all. Klopoin/Rivotril or Xanax are the only one's that seem to affect me in a way I can feel. However, when I had trouble sleeping, I took a blue Roche Xanax and it actually did get me to sleep.

I was in the same boat as you are in. I was severely addicted to opiates then I decided I was done. I called up a suboxone dr and he told me to stop taking everything 12 hours before my appointment. At my appt he gave me a suboxone and within 10 minutes my withdrawls were gone and I felt like a new person. I wasn't high I felt great I felt normal! The dr made me stay there for a bit to see how much I needed to feel normal then I went home. It's been a life saver for me. I don't even think about opiates anymore!

Emily,

Like you, I was once addicted to opiates. I tried cold turkey and let me tell you - I don't care what other (non-opiate) med you have to help the wd symptoms they are still really tough to take. I tried a couple times and couldn't get through even 2 days. So now I'm on suboxone.

That being said, suboxone has its cons. It's a partial opioid so it's also addictive, meaning you can't just one day stop or you will be back to the wds. I have been on it for 2 years and now I'm thinking about tapering. I only take one film a day (8mg) which I'm told is low. Most people take three. I don't understand why I only need one since I had a pretty heavy habit - got up to about 150 mg a day of percocet or oxy. But anyway, another issue for a lot of people is the cost. For me it's definitely cheaper than my percocet addiction but I had to search to find a doctor who wasn't outrageously expensive because my ins. didn't cover it. So I found one that was about $150 for the first visit and $80 each consecutive visit. I get insurance through school which covers the script but I only have $900 prescription coverage per school year so usually by March I have to pay out of pocket, which is about $250 a month for the 30 films. Lucky I don't need 90 a month or I'd be screwed!

My advice: talk to a doctor about starting on suboxone. You have to start feeling mild withdrawal before you take your first dose. That's very important. I went to www.heretohelpprogram.com and found my doctor through that site.

Good luck to you. I curse the day I took my first percocet and the emotional and financial damages those pills cost.

suboxone has been a miracle for me...im on 3 8 mg subs a day and 2 klonopin 2 mg a day... and i was comin off heroin, dilaudid, and fentanyl....needless to say, i was a bad junkie....but yes, suboxone has been a miracle for me...not only does it almost completly take away w/d, but youre actually motivated to go out and get ur shit together...i highly reccomend them..talk to your dr., and im sure he will have no problem helpin you out.. but always use as prescribed, cause like other narcotics, subs can be addicting, and in some cases harmful if u over do it.

Also when I read about going cold turkey so many people said u can take benzos to help u sleep , muscle relaxers and otc meds and also a blood pressure med for the sweating and shaking. But I want to be clean asap . Any opinions on which way to go and whats quicker and easier for me?
