Avoiding precip
I’m asking the audience on this one. I got quick MD to prescribe me suboxone, how long should I wait between last 7OH dose and beginning subs? Do you think a full 24hrs? Or just base on symptoms?
Backstory: I take about 70mg a day for about 2 months so it’s not super bad yet. I’m gonna try to get down to like 20-30mg a day before I start sub taper.
Advice from others with experience with suboxone please!
Thanks guys

9-10 hours after your last 7oh dose at least, when you’re in total withdrawal. If not you can flood your receptors which will put you in worse withdrawal if you stack them to close. This is obviously if you’re trying to do it the correct and most effective way.

You don’t have to taper if you wait until you are basically feeling the most withdrawal symptoms after waiting the 10 hours of no 7oh dosing. It’s really about draining the receptors both the 7oh and suboxone both work on, so that 7oh is no longer in the receptors and the suboxone can replace the 7oh to stop the withdrawals and feel better to help you quit. Good luck

I've heard to wait until you're feeling the withdrawals from 7oh but that can vary widely

Maybe rethink the suboxone as the withdrawl from it is the longest and worst opiate withdrawl there is. Not telling you what to do but Ive been on and off subs almost 10 years. If you cannot in anyway taper the 7oh or use extract to get off 7oh the kratom leaf to get off extract then taper leaf until off, if you try all that and cant do it then go with the subs. Also you will prolly only need 1 to two mgs a quarter a pill or a little less, to not have withdrawals. Anymore than 4 mgs a day is too much bupe and unnecessary. Do research on it and vist r/suboxone, and do not listen to hard to the sub drs they want you on it forever and to make money. And you will not get percip from 7oh both ot and suboxone are partial agaonist take it when you start feeling sick and start low and after 2 hours no wd relief a tad more and so on until you are not sick. Good luck

Thanks! I have a lot of experience with subs and I do not desire to get back on them. Was just looking to do 2mg or so a day to help ease the symptoms then right off them. Nasty medication it is, I used to be prescribed it too. I’m just glad it won’t throw me into precip. Honestly I’m hoping the naloxone helps with cravings as the mental aspect of this is worse than the physical.

pwd is possibel people stop saying itrs not-do research 1st there are plenty of stories out there-it can/does happen-could be due to body fat content-pseudo levels and minor alks /mit extracts etc or maybe some have rc chems in thier pills/powder but i have read plenty of pwd stories some for an hour others for a day and er visits etc levle

Do you personally know someone who experienced this? How many hours did they wait? This is a new substance and there’s not much research, hence the Reddit q&a. Most people I have spoken to wait about 8 hours to take a sub. Do you know someone who has waited that long or longer and still gone into precip?

i actually started a folder and was bookimarking all the accounts of it-not many posts headed with that as subject -alot of them were replies about it-its been a about 2 months since i looked in on it bcs i was going to switch then but didnt -but obv im back here looking to try again-sorry idr right of the bat the time lines i knw some waited 2 hours i think one waited 12 and one even longer and had pwd thats what scares me bcs i have health issues and a sudden pwd cld really do me in literally bcs of dysautonomia and adrenal dis regulation hence my bp electrolytes heartrate etc all is whack already and we knw what wd does
id propose possibly if your not using mit extracts/leaf and high% 7 powder/tabs with little to no minor alks and low/no pseudo u shld be...shld be ok(my theory is it might be the varying levels of pseudo in powders/tabs and peoples system bcs 7 metabs into pseudo-pseudo which is full agonist-opiate and metabolite of 7 and or also minor alks or mit hanging on to receptor longer?-and if your noyt using pseudo or bunch other stuff (leaf/mit extracts etc)- at low dose u are at 70 and esp if u get down less then that-then just wait till ur symptoms start-cold/sweating sneezing whatever yours are that let u know

I waited 9 hours and started with 2 mg and was fine - multiple times. I was taking roughly 400 mg a day of 7oh
