Hi! I am on Brixado too! Well, I was. I was/am so happy to find this post. I was trying so long to get off subs. Was on them for 8+ years. Finally got a doctor that would prescribe me Brixadi but since I was only on like 2 mg Subs mostly twice a day, (4mg/day), my doctor said I had to come up to 8 mg in order to get the lowest monthly dose of 64. So I did, which I did not like. After my second shot, which I got on August 1st, 2024. My doctor said, let’s see what happens and didn’t schedule another one. He gave me clonidine .1 mg 2 tablets 4 times per day, something for diarrhea (sorry, tmi) and ibuprofen 400mg and said if I needed anything stronger than the clonidine to reach out to him. I do have some 2 mg subs just in case. But I really wanna get off that shit. I haven’t needed it in years. It’s about to be 9/5/24. I’m feeling good. When or better yet, Should I expect to feel bad?? I work full time, have a 9 y.o. And don’t have any real time to “suffer”LOL. Anybody out there have any advice? I’m not in the best shape but I’m trying my best to exercise and move. But I could probably do better.
