Basically im having a problem with subs, ive waited 36 hours to take a sub from my last dose of iv heroin and fell into withdrawel hell x infinity. Although my dose is very high (2 buns) i wanted to see if there was anyone here who has been in my shoes. I dont even start to feel real withdrawels until 24 hours in meanwhile ive heard from some people, they feel WDs after 8-12 hours. So basically anyone here have to wait as long as me to take a bupe?
 
You basically already asked this question and it is being discussed in your other thread. Try to keep it to one thread for one topic, not multiple ones for the same question.

Plenty of people have to wait that long. As said in your other thread, everyones body and metabolism is different, so some people may get sick after just 12 hours, others it takes a couple days before they are sick enough to take suboxone. The average is around 24 hours.

That's why the doctors tell you to judge when to take suboxone by your withdrawal symptoms and not just an amount of time. You have to wait until you are in moderate withdrawal, whenever that is for you. The COWS scale (Clinical Opiate Withdrawal Scale) can help in determining the right time to dose. It's what the docs use to help them induct patients.

Closed. Continue discussion in your other thread.
