A short term detox protocol such as the one I described will not result in you having to detox from the buprenorphine used and will not prolong the withdrawal syndrome from the hydrocodone you are detoxing from. I have used this protocol many times before. It will all be over in a week, with some minor symptoms lingering for another week or two - but those are from the hydrocodone and would be experienced regardless of whether you use the buprenorphine. I am speaking of slightly malaise, minor sleep disturbances and slight GI discomfort that is the nature of kicking a habit.
You'll be fine and will heal quickly as long as you are able to stick to your plan of using buprenorphine for a week and staying away from other opioids.
