The question I need answered is the third paragraph. So pretty much, this one's been taking tramadol (which he isn't prescribed) every day for the past several months and has been getting withdrawals if he doesn't take it. It's been causing problems in his life pretty well, and he has decided to stop, but it's proven difficult. Today is the first day in he's not sure how long (due to daily tramadol intake fucking with his memory and perception of time) that he hasn't taken any tramadol. See, the fellow is prescribed Vyvanse, though he hasn't taken Vyvanse since he's been on tramadol every day. Today, however, he did, 3 and a half 40mg Vyvanse over the course of a day, and tramadol isn't safe with Vyvanse, so he didn't take it. Shockingly, he hasn't felt any withdrawal symptoms from not having taken tramadol all day, they usually would've started about 4 hours ago. He has decided that he has weaned off of tramadol enough (down to 125mg) and is going to use Vyvanse over the next few days to keep him from taking it at all.
That being said, he's afraid the withdrawal will come eventually, and he also would like to possibly get some sleep tonight. He also has come into a little bit of Suboxone which he has been saving in case he had to face the tramadol withdrawal with nothing else. So, my questions are as follows:
QUESTION 1: If this fellow, having taken around 140mg of Vyvanse today - the last 20mg or so (half a capsule's powder) having been taken around an hour before this was written - were to take roughly 2mg of suboxone to take the edge off of the Vyvanse about 4 hours after he last took it, could this cause a serious negative reaction? And by that I mean a reaction that would likely be lethal. SWIM doesn't need anyone giving him shit about abusing drugs, that's what he's trying to stop
doing. SWIM also doesn't need to
be told that replacing one addiction with more of it isn't doing anything, he doesn't care to take Vyvanse any more than 3 times a week, especially abusing it, as it causes very unpleasant side effects.
QUESTION 2: Would Suboxone even help with tramadol withdrawal?
SWIM would really appreciate an answer as soon as possible, he hasn't got anybody to ask but a drug forum. The first question is highly more important to SWIM than the second.
