Suboxone VS Subutex

So, am I able to take Subutex sooner than suboxone without getting thrown into withdrawal? Since it doesn’t have the Naloxone in it?

That’s a great question to ask a doctor. Whoever is prescribing you the medication should be able to advise you how long to wait.

There should be a minimum of 24 hours between using and taking subutex tho I am not a doctor this is just what I was told by an addiction specialist. If you have taken methadone you may well need longer.
I am not a doctor though so you should ask a doctor yourself not just go off this post. :slightly_smiling_face:

I can tell you that I’ve taken both too soon and it was not pretty.

Is it the same as withdrawal what it causes?

Percipitated withdrawal. Which, imo, is much much worse than regular withdrawal.
