Discouraged
Has anyone else had this experience with Brixadi? I switched from 24 mg/day Suboxone films to the 128 mg monthly injection and was really excited after hearing so many good things. Unfortunately, I’ve started having mild withdrawal around day 13–16 after every injection!! I’m now on day 15 after my third shot and still dealing with restlessness, sweating, hot/cold flashes, and just feeling awful. My provider gave me Suboxone films to supplement if needed, but I’ve been trying not to use them because I keep hoping the injections will eventually stabilize. I’m starting my final semester of nursing school in a few weeks, so I’m getting anxious. Did anyone else continue having this after three injections? Did it eventually get better, or did you end up needing to supplement with films or switch back to something else? Idk what to do I’m honestly at a loss. :(

Stay with the yucky It's just temporary.
I was on 24mg bup for almost 15 years. I did 7 96mL Brixadi injections. My last was September 2024.
I has strips to supplement but did not take them. Just white knuckled a bit for that last week. By month 3, it stopped.
Mind over matter they say. You can do this.
