Buprenorphine / Buprenex dosage?

[Boo]

what's a good recreational dosage (160lbs)? I have the .2mg sublingual tabs.

For me, and I really don't have an opiate tolerance, I usually snort 3-4 of these guys - 4 rocks me pretty hard for a long time, 3 feels about right. And I'm referring to the .2 mg tabs as well.

8mg should fuck you up (if you don't have a tolerance). I dissolve them under the tongue.
Stay away from real opiates at least 12 hours before taking them and don't inject them , otherwise the naloxone will become active (not a good thing for obvious reasons).

 

[romancat]

by the way they are either 2mg or 8mg pills not .2mg .... that would be nothing!

 

[stp1993]

no, they are .2mg.

 

[romancat]

the ones I have are from a study, they haven't been approved by fda. this is what it says in the back (they come in a blister) buprenorphine/naloxone 2mg/o.5 mg new drug limited by federal law to investigational use.questions 1-800-556-6475

There are certainly .2mg bupe tabs out there. That's what I had - temgesic brand and came in blister stips with ".2mg buprenorphine" printed on the back.

does all of it come with that naloxone stuff? i've been drinking a hefty amount of Codiclear DH cough syrup and dont want to have a bad reaction.

the ones with naloxone in it are the new sublingual ones that I mentioned in the above post: the brand name is Buprenex. The ones brand name Temgesic don't have naloxone in it.
