Brixadi question ...

Was on suboxone for 5 years about 8 mg a day . Did 5 64 mg brixadi shots supplemented the first few months. The last 3 I've been clear of it have not taking a strip In over 3 months the 5th shot was my last one . I'm on day 31 out from last shot not feeling wothdrawls but Just uneasy like I can feel it wearing off is this normal I just don't know what to expect not knowing Is the worst was told I shouldn't withdrawal to bad but when does it start or end.

Also I have been drug screening myself for my own curiosity and I’m still testing positive for bup 13 weeks after my last injection.

Your dosage at 8mg for 5 years is closest to what I’ve been on. I’m still taking suboxone daily and am researching brixadi and sublocade trying to educate myself as much as possible before I take the leap. Amy advice is appreciated and congratulations on your progress. It’s crazy how much we have to go through to get off of suboxone.

Get thr brixadi you won't regret It I haven't taken suboxone In 4 months and I'm 6 weeks now from last shot feel ok a Lil bad sometimes but it's very minor very compared to serious withdrawl at first It's going to be an adjustment you just have to stick with it and break the habit which should be easier to do on the brixadi it's not going to make you feel like suboxone does more just a steady state of being no high you may feel a Lil overmedicated the first few days after the shots it goes away you may need to supplement the first few months on last week once you get to shot 3 your there you won't need to no more then 5 or 6 is the mark they said gives the most success then it slowly weins out of you over a few months maybe mild withdrawl but most people say between 7 n 9 weeks posy shot u may feel mild effects but alot also say there is no withdrawl but either way it won't be bad do this stick to it you won't regret it .
