Wasn’t sure where to put this but regarding the injectable extended-release version of buprenorphine, ‘Sublocade’—it may well be a way to escape opioid addiction and withdrawal with zero pain.
Here’s my experience and have heard there are clinical trials going on that explore this very topic—history of 15+ years of opioid addiction hardly a single day was spent not in the warm embrace of mother O. Oxy to IV heroin to Suboxone to strange RC analogues, you name it. Finally had enough of it and decided to try Sublocade. It turns out that it works as intended, like a never-ending dose of bupe with no highs and no lows, perfect for learning how to live without taking something. You are supposed to get a shot every 30 days but read on…
This is where things got interesting. Nearly 1 month after my shot I got picked up by the cops and caught a 6 month jail sentence. No opioid maintenance program in this big house so I assumed I was fucked, every junkies worst nightmare scenario come to life—opioid withdrawal in jail. But no, somehow months later I was never sick and after the stint ended—7 months since last shot—I was still not sick. Fast forward it’s well over a year since my last Sublocade shot and I haven’t touched nor felt the need to touch opioids.
I only had 2 shots total before I went away so there’s no way there’s over a year built up in my system somehow, in fact I tested clean across the board 4 months back, no bupe, no opioids of any kind in my system. Has anyone else experienced this?
