I have a quick question. I have been on suboxone for 10 months now. I'm on a daily dose of 1.5mg a day. I got a really bad cold right now and I was going to take some tussi cough med that has codeine in it. Just wondering if would make me sick taking it? or will I be ok? to take it.

Hello,
I've a question to ask about subs which has no doubt been asked somewhere else within the bowels of this thread, so apologies if that is the case.
I'm not an opiate/oid addict, but do enjoy occasional use. At the moment my tolerance is non-existent. I bought some temgesic pills about a month ago, but alas was too high to bother to make a note of the dose. About 8 of these pills gave me a decent nod with no tolerance. If I could find said pills again, I'd buy, but unfortunately I can only find 8mg suboxones and subutex being sold. I understand that with no tolerance very little of one pill would make the user very sick. Has anyone in a similar situation found it easy enough to get nicely high without being ill using an 8mg pill, or are the chances of overdoing it too great to make it worthwhile?
Thanks in advance.
Edit: I should clarify that by 'using an 8mg pill' I don't mean taking a whole one and being fine, but splitting the pill up / making a solution / etc. Sorry if that wasn't obvious. And sorry if it was and intelligences have been insulted.
I was wondering if anyone who's on Suboxone and relapsed has told their doctors? I want to, because I've been doing H again after having cravings and dreams, but I'm afraid that he'll just kick me out. I've been on 8mg/day since last August (2011) and only ran out early 1 time (that he knew about). I don't know if my dose isn't high enough or if I would be better off going back on methadone. Although, given my history of relapsing, I've learned enough to know that the problem is ultimately with me, and my tendency to get bored after not using my DOC for so long.
Anyways, I know I digressed quite a bit; but I really just wanted some advice on how to handle the relapsing and whether to tell my doctor. I just don't want to get cut off and be completely SOL. Thanks, everyone! I've spent many late nights on this site!
I don't know if this is the right place for this, I apologize if this is wrong. I just started a clinical trial for a new kind of Bupe that's not on the market yet. I was wondering if anyone else is in the study here. I would love to talk to someone else who is in it. It's the BEMA Buprenorphine NX study. It's Bupe+naloxone in a patch form that sticks to the inside of your cheek and dissolves into the buccal mucosa. It's amazing!!! I love it so much better than the pill. It hits faster, stronger, and keeps longer. With the pill I can always feel when it's time to dose again, with this buccal patch I don't get that feeling. I can't wait until this hits the market (if the study goes well, which I have a strong feeling it will). It has a citrus flavor (or what's supposed to be citrus)....it tastes like a kid's fluoride at the dentist. I will be very sad when this study ends and have to go back to taking the under the tongue pill.
Hopefully I can hear from someone else who is in the study somewhere else (I know there are multiple sites doing this across the USA)! Also, if anyone has any questions I would be glad to answer them.

My doctor gave me the option to switch from suboxone to subutex. I simply told her the nalaxone was causing head aches and said she'd be able to put me on subutex. Has anyone had the experience of trying both? If so, what are some of the pros, cons?

You can dissolve 1mg in a very small amount of water. 20 to 30 units would work fine.
It's best not to IV Suboxone without a micron filter.![]()
