Opiate Dependence
"I&#039;ve been addicted to oxycodone/perks for about 7 years now. Ranging from 30-120mg a day (needed at least 30mg to be somewhat functional). Since losing cars, a house, copious amounts of money and almost losing my family and simply myself, I decided to really stick with the suboxone. Before, I just had it as a back up to keep withdrawals away if I couldn&#039;t get anything. It truly is a miracle drug but, they should warn you of the withdrawal symptoms that are very much like full blown heroin/methadone withdrawal. Day 1: 2mgs in morning, Day 2: 1mg in am 1mg bedtime, Day 3/4: 1mg Day 5/6: 0.5 mgs. By day 7 you should be .25mg or nothing. It helps to always have 1 around just in case you have that one very bad day, that could send you backwards."
