how did you find your perfect bupe dosage!?

[Jabberwocky]

so, I am back on bupe.. this is my third TRY but I am confident that I will come out on top; the longest I've been clean (truly away from dope) was 9 months and that is when I last OD'd in 2013 and was checked into the ER and then a mental psych because when I woke up in the ER my mom was there crying and the Dr. heard me say to her, "ma, youre making me wish I died". well, that is surly something you should NEVER say in front of a Dr.

my first try at bupe I started at 16/MG/day of the PILL FORM and it was working great but I dropped so quickly over the 9 months that once I got to 4MG I ended up back on the dope train, so I am in no rush to drop my dosage or get off bupe this time; ill stay on it for life if I have to.

but I am asking about dosage because I am wondering how you figured out best what works for you? I am scripted 16/MG/day which I know is a heavy dosage they say, but I was shooting 1-2G's daily, so I think its somewhat inline with what my dope habit was. however, there are days where I feel on top and actually "good" about life.. then there are days where ill take the same dosage but I am just down, out, dragging ass all day and ready to blow my head off, ya know!? ha. today being ONE OF THOSE NEGATIVE DAYS!

I took my first 8MG at 8AM and already down another 8MG at 1130AM just hoping it would pick me up and bring me back to myself. I am sitting here at my desk at work not wanting to do a damn thing but look for ways out of this miserable life I put myself in due to my addiction problems. I wish I could kick all these drugs and walk away but I just cant; I tried and always came back, so if I can manage w/ bupe then so be it, but right now even managing w/ bupe is not as easy as it once was/looked.

Take the smallest amount possible once a day that will make the w/d possible to function with. To be honest I found that 2mg a day of bupe would cover 70%+ of w/d from opiates and that was back in the day of half a gram of smack iv'ed and half a gram smoked daily. Bupes long half life and stacking effect makes it a lot easier than you think to get by on small amounts. Please remember that the induction can take 3 days of dosing until a semi stable plasma level has ben reached.

Well I've been on bupe for 2 years on and off. I truly hope you're not shooting ANY this time because I believe that sets yourself up for failure. 5star said it best, take the smallest amount possible. Remember that also bupe has a long half life and can take awhile to get stable on. Personally I like to take my whole dose at once so I can have the full effect and not have to dose again throughout the rest of the day due to the long half life. Keep trying, good luck!

When i started sticking it up my ass. I was able to feel it without tasting that nasty fucking shit. Was doing 8mg daily and it would last me all day, and I didn't want to redose until the next day.
I was also mixing the suboxone buzz with gbl, nice swirlly buzz,got into blonde redheads and playing halflife 2.

sticking them in the ass, huh!? you did that w/ the subs? how long it take?

I never did anything that way but I honestly hate the taste of bupe so much that I legit might CONSIDER sticking these fuckers in my ass and just taking it that way, lol. never thought I'd say that but if its easier than the mouth, then maybe, lol.

I've shot it but this is def. not something I'd do daily or even want to do; I did it just cuz I've always been a needle junkie and wanted/try to shoot something.

BBT - you dissolve the sub, draw up in to a needless syringe, lube it up, stick it 3-4 inches up your bum, inject while laying on your stomach then wait ~10 minutes. You do this when your bowels are clear.. obviously.
