I want to take a short break from hydro and try buprenorphine. I have a few 2mg Suboxone tabs. Maybe someone can answer a few questions for me?
Should I take 2mg per dose? I've heard some people say they broke their tabs into halves or even fourths and took only 1mg or .5mg. What's the equivalency of hydro to bupe? Is there a formula...like if I'm taking Xmg of hydro 4 times a day, then I should be taking Xmg of bupe 3 times a day (or whatever)? I'm just looking for some general guidelines....
I know I should wait at least 12 hours (or when my body is starting to complain) before I take the bupe. But what about when I want to go back on hydro? Should I wait 12 hours from my last dose of bupe or can it be sooner? If I took hydro too soon, would it make me ill or anything?
Oh, and one last question. How many Temgesics would it take to equal one 2mg Suboxone (I'm terrible at math)?
I know this is a lot of questions, but even if you can answer only 1 or 2, it would be greatly appreciated!
