Subutex and Alcohol question for People on suboxone maintenence
Hey all I have been on subutex now for like 6 months or so for the first few months i was only taking like 2-4 mgs a day than i decided to experiment by taking 8mg and etc etc well now im back down to my 2-4 mgs a day mostly 4, but during this whole time i have had like zero desire to drink alcohol. The few times i did drink alcohol man did i have the worst hangover the next day and i didn't even drink that much. even the buzz itself from the alcohol wasnt like i remembered it to be. We have some beer in the house and being as its summer i would like to enjoy some. I never really had an alcohol problem in my life nor am I looking to pick one up just ya know a few drinks maybe a nice buzz once in awhile. Well down to my question, sorry if this is all over the place im ADD lol.
I was wondering if there was a good dose of subutex to be on so that it wouldn't interfere with me drinking and getting the nasty hangovers and weird alcohol feeling that i got the couple times i did. i think i was around 6-10mgs when i did drink. Im sure that the sub dose played a part in how i felt though im not entirely sure. Does anyone have experience with this that may be able to shed some advice? Subutex has seriously damn near gave me my life back and i am so glad to have discovered it but I had no idea it messed with drinking and stuff like that.
I was wondering if i knew i was gonna have some beers that day maybe only take like 2mg's in the morning that day and nothing else or maybe even 1mg or i donno, if it will have negative effects as it has in the past. I just want to hear from someone that is on subutex/suboxone maintenece therapy and has the occassional drink if they have ill effects. When they drink i.e. nasty hangovers after not so much alcohol, weird buzz feeling etc. just curious if i lowered the dose on that day i was gonna have a few beers if it would be closer to normal as if i had no opiates in me that day. If anyone has any advice on this please let me know!
