Do You Gain Weight With Suboxone?
Hi I'm just starting to research suboxone. I'm currently going to a methadone clinic every day and it is such a hassle. I have to get up every morning at 4am to be there in time to get to work the line is so long but that's beside my point, My real question is Do you gain weight with Suboxone? This is my third attempt at trying to get off of opiates by taking Methadone but every single time I start taking Methadone I gain 40 to 60 pounds within the first 4 months. Most people do, some don't I just happen to be one of them. I get so discouraged by the weight gain that I stop going to the Methadone clinic and then start using again. Sadly my mom died from using the same drug I used before treatment. I have 3 children and want to get my life together again but I just can't cope with the weight gain. Can anyone tell me if Suboxone has the same side affect? And also is there any difference between Suboxone & Suboxine? PLEASE HELP!!!

How Do You Handle Back Pain While On Suboxin
My husband has had many back surgeries and procedures - he has taken 200 dalotid in 7 days - he has od'ed on morphien - he went on suboxen for 6 weeks - all was going pretty good - then he started saying he was in pain - then the suboxen wasn't helping - he never was addicted (8 years on opiods) he has a high tolerance - now he stopped the suboxen - and came home with a bag of pills - how do you handle pain without the opiods?

Suboxone And Adderall
I started subs four days ago I am taking a whole 8mg sub twice a day. I also take 45mg of adderall a day for ADD and i need the adderall because I am a college student is it harmful to take them together? The suboxone has done excellent for me, and has kept the oxy out of my mind. I got addicted to tabs when I was playing college baseball in order to play through two broken fingers and bum shoulder. So instead of doing a gut check time dealing with the pain through an ice bucket or taking some time off to heal up because i was just a freshman and i was battling it out for starting spot with a all-conference senior. I became immune to the tabs, so a player introduced me to oxy contin I was taking 80mg a day this continued into the fall season of my sophomore year until I tore the ligaments of my throwing hand I had to have surgery it was career ending injury and rehab was nine months during which I received perocets I began to stack them with oxy and adderall. This addiction almost destroyed my life.It almost cost me everything and put my parents through hell not only physically but also financially cause I used the money they sent me for living expenses instead to support my habit,but they continued to be my rock and never gave up on me. The suboxone made me feel like life did before oxy. I am now a junior and with the help of the Good Lord I am getting my life back. I would like to know if the 45mg of adderall is safe with the suboxone? I am having to buy the suboxone is there clinic i can go to thats not rehab to get prescribed or a doctor? What are my options? I went dry for a week but quickly relapsed,but I want this time I don't care how hard it is. So please any help with my options would be appreciated.

Help With Getting More Suboxine's
Hi, I have been on suboxines for 2 in half weeks now. I take two 8mg/2mg a day. I need more than two a day. I have been addicted to oxy's for along time now. I've lost my house, my job, & my car. I have a wonderful husband, and two great children, which I'm about to lose them. Im afraid Im going to go back on the pills. I still think about them. Two weeks ago, I tried to talk to the doctor about it, He just told me to take a whole one in the morning, half around 2, & another half at night, This is not helping, How could I ask for more. I think three a day would be better for me.

Hydrocodone/oxycodone Addiction And Resolution
Hi evrybody, i've recently been blessed with a son, but if we rewind back i was injured at a young age (18) however i still live with this chronic pain to this day, i've had an upper lapendectomy amongst other procedures to help my back, however i've been prescribed hydrocodone since then, i'm now 24 years old and can eat enough to kill a rhino, I have this new blessing in my life and i want to be there for him, however the days i don't have painkillers the pain is simply too much to deal with, i've been hearing about suboxon, so i've checked the internet, will it help with my pain? i have shooting pains down my legs due to nerve damage and what i believe was a botched surgery, things are'nt good on all fronts, i NEED to be here for my son, but i also need to be able to deal with this pain so as i can provide a life for him and our family. any suggestions from anyone who knows something legitimate as to how i can control my pain and not be hindered by that monkey on my back, and i know all these can't be good for my liver to boot. it seems i can function on 3 oxycodone when it would take 10 norco (hydrocodone) but good luck getting a doctor to write a script for oxy because of everyone who chooses to abuse them for all the wrong reasons, i'm curious as to what drugs can help control pain and what is safe to take while using subuxon to kick the opiate habit. and please, no preachy posts about god and how i need em in my life... what i need is an answer god or his fanatics can't provide by preaching to me, this is desperation for me, for my son.
