Hello,
I've been taking suboxone daily for about 9 months now. I'm not on SMT; it's more just for recreation. I also don't really do any opiates/opiods anymore, so it is nice that suboxone gives me a buzz still, lasts long, and isn't as expensive as most other pills relative to what you get.
The thing is, I've been snorting them 99% of the time, and I don't like the idea of doing that long-term as I have (bad bad for nose, like deviated septum possibility?). I've tried sublingually maybe 8 times or so, but each time, I get almost nothing. I generally snort about 3-4mg in a day of the orange, 8mg pills. Usually about 2mg in the morning then another 1.5mg or so in the afternoon or evening.
The problem I have with snorting them is doing it that much can't be good at all for one's nose. I also have bad allergies and find my nose clogged up badly at times, especially at night (makes sleeping difficult on the worst days). So either way it can't be good, it's just that sublingually does NOTHING for me even though I'd really like to avoid snorting.
Each time I've put the same amount under my tongue, it dissolves in just a few minutes, and I try not to swallow much saliva for 10 minutes, and I don't drink anything for 10-15 minutes. Yet I don't seem to get a buzz... if I do, it seems to be about 1/2 as strong as snorting, which is a problem when it comes to cost and availability of sub.
Am I doing something wrong with sublingually? You'd think when snorting, a lot of it drips in your throat, then down to your stomach, which orally is worse for sub than sublingually, yet it is not placebo or anything, but snorting is MUCH better. I know like 6+ other people that agree that smaller snorted amounts work MUCH better.
Or does it take much longer to feel when doing sublingually? When snorting, I start to feel it in 15-20 minutes, and within 30 minutes or so it has mostly dissolved and I feel it.
