Ok, this experience has been very beneficial for me and I wanted to share it with the rest of you seeking to kick opiates.

I, like many others, was prescribed Suboxone and after about a year of maintenance, I wanted to quit. The thought occurred that since opiates were a huge part of my life, I would need a seismic shift in environment in order to kick.

Once down South, I found that many meds that would require a Rx in the US were freely available. This was a crucial factor because it meant I was able to purchase meds that would greatly help with coming off bupe. Two of the most helpful were Tramadol (which in some pharmacies is available for a little over the cost of a redbull) and Gabapentin.

Tramadol, being a weak opiate and mild antidepressant, was especially useful for kicking bupe. It covered 70% of the WD and the Gaba took care of the rest. In the US i had no insurance, so to get ANY med prescribed, I had to pay 150 JUST to see the doc, and there was no guarantee he would give me what I needed. I was also able to get Soma OTC which helped greatly for sleep.

Hope this info helps

Online pharms aren't that cheap. I'm not saying taking a vacation to Mexico is either. It does sound loads more fun than. . . being in a cold North American environment.

They never asked for prescriptions where I went.
10 50mg Tramadols were like snip
15 300mg Gabapentin was about snip
30(!) Somas (I forget the mg) were snip

Basically it is pharmaceutical paradise. You just have to know enough spanish to ask around for the best prices. Beats the hell out of ordering them online and giving a shady site your credit card number. At least this way, you know exactly what you get.

Actually, there was one area where they asked me for a prescription, but I just went to another nearby pharm and had no problems. Most of the time they just want the money. Also, mexico has one of the highest, if not THE highest pharm count per capita in the world, so there will always be another pharmacy nearby.
 
The drugs you've mentioned are fairly well known already around these boards. I agree that tramadol can be very helpful when jumping off buprenorphine.

As far as going all the way to mexico for these.. seems a little bit of a stretch for anyone that doesn't live in one of the border states.
