Stop arguing... go do a little research hot head. It was originally going to be made in an alcoholic solution back before they made the sub tablets.
Alcohol raises BA. Also a lot of factors besides alcohol in play when it comes to how it absorbs
Dr j and fda both have info u can search for on this. I just happened to find a paper by the gov about a month ago talking about how it would be easier to script out tabs for subL than an alcohol/ethanol - bupe solution for opiate maintenence.
I mean duh... why would they have menthol in zubsolv. Its the same concept as the alcohol. It raises BA.
Don't get cocky when u r wrong or accuse people of having placebo effects that's very offensive. I almost reported the post.
Btw I've been doing this for a while now. Have had times w/o alcohol. After a couple days the difference is obvious if not sooner , than if I had used alcohol
Just quit "debunking" the theory that alcohol raises BA. This method saved me $100's due to needing less each dose.
Dude, calm down. First off, the placebo thing was a joke. Notice that he said "convince me it is placebo" and then I say "well the placebo effect is quite powerful
". Notice the
?
And clearly he isn't offended, like me, he is concerned with the truth. And his idea is the best; he'll try liquid alone, but if the alcohol SEEMS stronger, he'll continue with it, since it isn't hurting anything, and for all I know, maybe it is adding another small % on top of gain from simply using water. Even if it's not, I do believe alcohol could make it absorb even faster, I mean it's possible.
But the only one being rude here is you, Apperantly I offended you, and I am sorry, I am only here to help others, and to discuss/debate/research the topics I am passionate about.
As far as reporting me, I'm not sure what your reporting??? That you don't like my conclusions? That I'm a big meanie???
Anyway, if you disagree with something, being rude or just telling someone "nah, your wrong!" Is not at all an effective strategy. Try convincing me, it's not impossible.
In the mean time, I stand by my statement, you don't NEED alcohol for the BA increase, that is making your buprenorphine dose 50-70% stronger. Doesn't mean you might not be able to maximize it with alcohol, and do what makes you comfortable, but for practical purposes, just using water is a helluva lot easier than holding high proof liquor under your tongue(and if alcohol does anything, it would take a high proof, as something like 10% alcohol would be no better than water).
And dirtzed, thanks for trusting me, I'm glad some people are taking my posts into account, and giving me the benefit of the doubt,on things that ade harder to believe, some people respond negatively to any kind of change in they're beliefs/ what they think they know.
