I’ve been on Suboxone for 15 years I just got myself a little bit of fentanyl after being clean for four years. How long do I have to stop Suboxone .

I’m definitely gonna do the fentanyl so my mind is already made up my last dose of Suboxone was 3 o’clock this morning but I haven’t used opiates in four years so we’re just gonna do a tiny tiny bit
 
Can somebody please answer me? I know it’s a stupid question if I took the Suboxone at 3:30 AM it’s 12 hours later will I feel the fentanyl without having withdrawal?
 
Also in the direction you’re going
Suboxone -> full agonist

You won’t feel withdrawal until you are withdrawaling from the fentanyl and suboxone themselves. Likely when the fentanyl wears off you will go into severe withdrawals from the drug itself.

Seperately come precipitated withdrawals. Which can happen when going from
Full agonist fent-> partial agonist buprenorphine

What you want to be careful of is when you start taking your suboxone again because you’re out of fentanyl. You’ll want to wait at least three days until you’re completely clear to take your normal suboxone dose. Even then you’d want to wait until five days due to fetanyls half life.

You might want to look something up called the Bernese method because it’s going to be about the only way that you get back on suboxone after having your fuck around with fent.

But you’re going to find out.

You’re going to find out about the kindling effect and precipitated withdrawal, and how opioids will still fuck your life up. Even if it’s just a tiny bit. Because everything has a start. Even if that start is just a tiny bit.

God luck and good speed

Be safe.
 
Technically it might be possible to take a tiny tiny bit of suboxone after and during your fent trial period in order to keep your system from ever being bupe free and that will make it so your receptors never vacate completely and you never go into precipitated withdrawal. But this is very uncharted territory. I’ve only heard of a few people doing this and it seems difficult.

I really think if you learned about the Bernese method you might be able to apply that similar logic to the fent and only slightly vacate your receptor of bupe at any given time. Then you wouldn’t have to induce suboxone again because you’d have never been off suboxone.
 
I just wanna say thank you and I appreciate you for reaching out to me what you said was helpful so I don’t have to be off the Bubin often although I’ve been off it for 18 hours now and haven’t taken the fentanyl yet. I’m just gonna sniff it just a tiny bit and I won’t take the Suboxone tomorrow I have enough to do a bump a day for the next three days and then I’m off for four days from work

I just wanted to thank you for your feedback. I appreciate you responding to me so basically if I just do a bump a day in Hawaii for three days and then I wait 3 to 5 days to start my Suboxone I should be OK.? I won’t go into withdrawals because I haven’t had Suboxone in my system for 18 hours. Is that correct?

Thank you so much for responding. I appreciate you greatly.
 
Dosage of suboxone?
I take 16 mg a day for the last 15 years. My last dose was 330 this morning so I’ve been almost 18 hours since my last dose if I do a bump inhalation of fent well that hold me over until I get off work at 2 o’clock tomorrow I have enough cent to do a bump a day about three days and then I’ll wait three days and induce the Suboxone back into my system. How does that sound?

Thanks for everything. Yes, keep me in your prayers. I won’t believe her in the power of prayer.
 
This seems really ill advised.
1) It seems like way too much fent
I got a dirty thirty one time. I smoked like the tiniest crumb one night Like barely visible and I didn’t need to do kratom again until the next days afternoon.
2) you’re trying to go to Hawaii. You’re going to ruin your vacation when this plan doesn’t work.
3) if you’re trying to be on drugs for three days or so that isn’t a one off. That’s a three day lapse that is probably going to turn into a relapse. And if you go into precipitated withdrawal it will be among the worst experiences of your entire life. Trying to score in Hawaii is also going to suck. You will 100 get ripped off. Like almost assuredly. You might be able to hire a sex worker with connections. And you might get ripped off in a mutually agreeable way.
3a) trying to smuggle fent into Hawaii will also suck and be stressful
4) this is a crazy plan. Stay home and do drugs. Or go to Hawaii and stay sober on sub.
5) this is lowkey kind of a truly bad idea. I wouldn’t wish this on a friend. It can and is actually very likely to go terribly terribly wrong.
6) I do not think you should do this. Research the Bernese method. Figure out how to keep bupe on your receptor while taking a full agonist.
7) recognize that calling it fent or blues or whatever. None of that changes that this is fucking street fetanyl. It’s untested. It’s impure. It has hotspots. And you’re just going to do a bump. Famous last words. Volumetric dose it. Or smoke literal barely visible crumbs off of foil. But this plan is insane.

None of this is a good idea.
 
Just take your dub and save your drugs for when you get back and have researched this more. This is a crazily ill thought out plan. Fuck your life up sure. But do it with style.
 
Minimum 3 days … you shouldn’t have precip after that if you took your dose say Monday 8 am by Thursday you SHOULD be fine. Might wanna wait a day or two more or try a small toke on the weds night or the thurs morning to gauge where you’re at
 
I’m not going to Hawaii lol but I have to show up for work. I work five hours a day so I have to work Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday and then I’m off Friday through Sunday and can always take Monday off. I’m very grateful for you and your feedback. I really appreciate you looking out for me. I’m taking everything you say very seriously you think I’m better off smoking it then sniffing
 
I understand why you’re doing this. It’s the same reason I have sex. I just wanna feel it a tiny tiny bit. Not a lot tho. I hate stuff that makes me feel really good.

Sounds like you’re doing it for the right reasons. Plus you’ve looked into harm reduction so that’s responsible of ya. The past 15 years on suboxone ain’t got shit on you lol

I just wish you all the best man❤️💔

I mean I don’t know what you’re better off doing but when I cautiously used dirty thirties I took a little tiny crmbliest crumble and it was enough to brighten colors and get a very good nights rest. It was a welcome break from chugging kratom juice and I kept on my recovery path despite the lapse.

So don’t go thinking because you’re having your little foray with fent that you’re somehow excused from the work of your recovery. You can both lapse and you can continue recovering after your lapse. It’s okay for you to just keep on going after this.

Your lapse doesn’t mean that you have to return to active addiction. It doesn’t mean everything you’ve been through is somehow over and done okay.

Just because you stopped to enjoy the viewpoint on your mountain hike doesn’t mean that your excused from either continuing the hike up or beginning the journey down. You’re still on the path whether that pleases you or not, I found it deeply comforting to know that I could continue my recovery after lapse.

By the way in one of your posts above you did say you were going to Hawaii lol :-)
