Is anyone else here on suboxone? Or better yet, have gotten off of it? If so....where did you jump? I started at 24 mg per day, I'm now down to 4. I am hearing 4mg is still not a low dose. I have awful depression and zero motivation to do anything. From what I've read, it is the suboxone that may be causing a lot of that. Just curious if anyone else is on it, and what your experience has been like. I've been on it for a bit over a year and a half.

I’ve been there and you’ve heard correctly. Four is not a low dose. Check this out ....
90 Day Suboxone Tapering Schedule in Detail. Replacing the starting 2mg with your 4mg and follow the pattern. *Note: Consult your doctor for any medical decisions, including your Suboxone tapering protocol. This three month taper schedule has been shown to be effective for patients in buprenorphine detox: Days 1-14: 2 mg Days 15-28: 1.5 mg Days 29-42: 1.0 mg Days 43-66: 0.5 mg Day 67: 0.0 mg Day 68: 0.5 mg Day 69: 0.0 mg Day 70: 0.5 mg Day 71: 0.0 mg Day 72: 0.5 mg Day 73: 0.0 mg Day 74: 0.5 mg The next process is to dose every third day: Days 75-76: 0.0 mg Day 77: 0.5 mg Day 78-79: 0.0 mg Day 80: 0.25 mg Days 81-82: 0.0 mg Day 83: 0.25 mg Days 84-85: 0.0 mg Day 86: 0.25 mg To taper off Suboxone completely, abstain for three days and then take one last dose: Days 87-89: 0.0 mg Day 90: 0.25 mg = Last Dose |
