I've been on ~100 mg's of loperamide a day for quite a while now (couple years). I started it because at high doses like that it kept me completely WD free from heroin and I eventually got off heroin with it. So no matter how stupid it sounds that I'm addicted to poop pills, I don't give a shit because they got me off of heroin. Anyways, I'm wondering if anybody has ever gone from Lope onto suboxone. I'm currently trying it, and not exactly sure whether I need to still taper off the lope, or if i would be comfortably able to just cut it off immediately. I'm perscribed two 8 mg subs per day.
I'm really curious if anyone here can give me a little schooling on some of the science behind how these two opioids work on the brain. Neither of them show up on drug tests, which confuses me. Am I wasting my time trying to get on subs from the lope because they just work on different receptors or what? I really want to know more about how these work on the brain, if somebody would kindly explain. Thank you.
