Opioids "lite" suboxone usage; cause complete blockade?

Personal question- if I have been using around 1mg of suboxone for a week straight, could I still hypothetically get "high" whenever I wanted (as in hours after my last sub dose). Or would it still have the same opiod blockade effect as using an entire 8mg pill a day...? Thanks, Tearaway.

I use maybe 1mg at most daily, usually closer to the .5mg range, and I have no problem breaking through that dose, even if I use suboxone for a week or more. I see no reason why you shouldn't be able to breakthrough as well..
 
yeah you can but in my experience the high was a little different and not as strong. It also wore off quicker than normal but i only smoke tar so idk how itd go if you were shooting it. This is all with only like .5mgs
 
After taking 1mg for a whole week you won't have zero tolerance to buprenorphine; so you wouldn't have a complete blockade. That's my educated guess at least, it could vary per different individuals.

1mg taken sublingually shouldn't have too much of a "blockade" effect 8-12 hours after it's been taken.

I agree with this.....AFAIK, there is no "set" blockade dose. Everyone is different, though.
