HI I looked around for about an hour or so and really can't find anything like I'm asking... basically this is my thing, I had just about 2 years clean long story short, fucked up, and was on subs for almost a year ( like 2mg's a day towards the end for a couple months) and then when I only had 1 stript left was done with the doc due to insurance and what not, I ran into some 8MG dil's which were one of my drugs of choice.. IV of course, I was doing anywhere from 2-6 pills a day, for about a month or so..the last time I did dill's was about 48 hrs ago, I started on bupe yesterday, inducted with 3mgs, and took another 1 mg few hours afterwards, this morning I took 2mgs, and currently waiting on more sub / dil to taper down with, really what I'm asking is, what is the best way for me to do this? Ive got access to prolly around 2-3 8mg strips and 2-3 more 8mg dil's in the near future...what would be the best way for me to come out of this with minor minor withdrawls if not almost none? thank you!
 
I dont know about getting out of it with no withdrawals but it can be a little easier than usual. Firstly, if you are wanting to stop and get off of them with the least amount of problems...dont do anymore of the Dilaudids!. It wouldnt make any sense to do more of you DOC if you are trying to get off with as little pain as possible and you have the subs to use.

So is the 2mg holding you? Do you seem to be ok at that dose for now?
 
i hate to be preachy... but. there really isnt a way to "cheat" w/d's either way u are just spreading it out so long that its hardly noticeable. or u do it hard, but it goes away fast.

doing any dillies would be counter productive. if u must use them, use those first. then wait until u are w/d'ing fully (i mean it, fully w/d) and then start taking small amounts of sub. u dont want precipitated withdrawals. know what that is?? its hell.

i would try 1 mg at a time. waiting an hour or two in between doses to gauge its effects. say at 3 mg u feel okay. then take 3 mg for two days straight and then start tapering that dose down however fits u best. just make sure once u stop the subs that u are at a dose like .25 mg or less if possible.

u may not even need 3 whole 8mg subs if you want to taper quickly.

also go search for Tommyboy's thread on different ways to use suboxone for a quick taper(rather than long term use). he lists 3 main ways its done in the first post of the thread.

but once u take the subs, u dont want to have any of those dillies around. if u really are going to quit. if not y even ask this?
