I'm experimenting with 2mg sub 9 hrs after morning dose, let's see if I can get some magic lol![]()
Breaking up dose is probably better than once a day like I've been taking them. I find myself craving a pill really fucking bad only dosing once. This way I'm shoving something in mouth at least. Maybe 2mg x 2-3 a day will calm the jones a little ...
I hope you mean 9 hrs after your morning sub dose and not that soon after dope. IME the best way to feel good off of subs is to wait a good 30 hours before dosing it. I usually don't feel a buzz from it the first day no matter the dose, so I don't go above 4mg (well I never go above that dose anyways). I start feeling it more the second and third day, with a 2mg dose in the morning and night.
It obviously doesn't work as well with larger habits so I always get down to 1-2 oxy 30s a day before transitioning over to the subs, otherwise it will only keep me from getting sicker the first few days, and just keep me well after that. But if my tolerance is lower or if I've waited 36 hours to dose it then it works much better.
The day before starting it I take my last opiate dose as early in the day as I can while still being able to sleep that night, and then go as long into the next day as I can before taking it. Another thing I do is I keep it at home while at work so that I have no choice but to wait until I get home to do my induction. So usually I'll take my last opiate dose at noon which should be late enough in the day for me to get some sleep, and then go to work with my withdrawals starting, then get home at 8pm when I will start with 4mg the first night. I'll usually wake up early in the morning starting to feel sick again and will dose 2-3mg which I will repeat at night, then I'll be on a steady 2mg 2x a day regimen.
I usually only use it to taper though, so I start cutting back my nightly dose to 1mg, then both my daily and nightly dose to that, then just 1mg at night a few times before stopping.
