I am currently on 10 mg. I was on it on and off sometimes using oxycodone and sometimes bupe.
In 2019 while on oxy I gotta bad akathisia. My doc switched me to 2-4 mg of suboxone sublingual and akathisia had stopped. Over time I increased the dose and I have noticed it helps for my depression.
If I miss one day I start getting body restlessness and that scares me if I stop the bupe the akathisia might return. But I have to get off because it's negative side effects are real bad. Weight gain, dizziness, nausea, appetite, and so on including potential long-term effects that are possible.
My question is, if you were me, how would you quit the sub in order to minimize potential depression and avoid akathisia?
Cheers
PS. Bupe also calms me down but can often put me to sleep if I take 1 mg extra
