@Shputim Shaqiri It's an opioid...and extremely extremely difficult to get off of when all is said and done. Opiates only take a few days to kick. Pharmaceuticals tout this novel opioid as a treatment for opiate addiction. At best, it is a highly, powerfully addictive substitute. At best---numbs the human and blunts emotions and reactions.... rots the teeth over time, blunts sexual response, and tends to make an outgoing person socially withdrawn for starters. These are just truths that the manufacturers do not want you to know. No, you won't crave opiates because you will be too full of a fake opiate to care. Then it takes years to stop the Post Acute Withdrawal Syndrome, so that's just starters.

I was on Suboxone for 10 years, for a 1 year Percocet addiction! I'm so happy to be free from everything! I will forever be a testimony for Sublocade. God bless and good luck to you all!

He gave me the shot and said I would need to come back in a month for follow up doses. Yet after a month I didnt have any urge or need for a follow up. 6 month later I can honestly say I didnt feel the slightest withdrawals. It was the best thing I ever did.

How did you feel a week after your first shot? J/w cuz I felt horrible after day 8. For four months in a row I've had to call the doc and get supplemental suboxone, and each shot has been 300mg. I am sched. for a 5th shot of 300mg sublocade, as well as my 6th will be a 300mg. Tox results showed my metabolism is high and burns thru the injection too quickly, and my base levels of bupe after sublocade plummeted after a week each time. Even though I've had 4 shots, my bupe levels are showing a level of someone who has merely had one injection. If the numbers don't rise past a certain level after the 6th 300mg shot (painful fucking shit) then we're ditching the sublocade and going back to sublingual. So, just wondering how you're journey is going.... thanks.

This is why the shot is so awesome. IMO it shouldn’t be used as a replacement for Suboxone (even though it’s made by the same company) they intended it to be used long term but I don’t know why anyone would switch to the shot if they don’t plan on stopping bupe altogether. 3-4 months tops and then you should stop taking it.

I havent relapsed during my 3 years and 9 months of treatment, but ive had moments where I almost caved because of stress, so I wont do the shot just yet.

Good stuff but you missed the best reason to go with sublocade over suboxone. NO WITHDRAWALS. For the first time ever we have a royal road off of opiates. Yes, i know your supposee to taper down and come off the subs with minimal withdrawal. this is fantasy. the taper down process sucks. then coming off sucks. infact if you cold turkey without a taper the withdrawal is much worse than straight opaite withdrawal. iv seen the taper process work and get people off opiates withdrawal maybe twice out out hundreds. Coming off sublocade was a breeze. i couldnt believe it when they told me it was out of my system the shot can hurt a little bit but you want to get licocane to rub on your stomach before hand. just ask your doc for it. i didnt have the licocane when i went thru the process but i hear it helps. also.. you dont have to get the shot every month like they say. the 10 mg hurts and after 60 days i still had the same levels as i had after one week. so i would go and get the shot every other month and my levels were the exact same as the people getting the shot every month. So if the shot hurts you.... just get it every other month. that seems to be fine with levels of bup in your system and u only have to get half the amount of shots that sting a little. its actaully harder to keep the sublocade shot hidden cuz of the bump on your stomach. just putting something under your tonge is easy. hiding a big bump under your skin is hard. being ablke to dose yourself is not necessarily a good thing mentally. maybe if they like the taste or the routine, thats OK. but you dont want someone using the subs for anxiety control or something. which seems to happen a lot w sublingual tabs. someone gets a llitte chill down there spine and thinks they need to take a sub to be ok. When in actuality its just a normal biorhythm throughout the day or a situation that would be anxiety inducing for a normal person. the Suboxone user can take more Suboxone during that time. its gives them bad habits and a focus on ingesting a chemical to be confortable when your going to have to eventually deal with that situation and those feeling without the suboxone. when you have the sublocade shot in you, you just think " OK this isnt withdrawal or post accuate withdrawal. this is a normal semi unconfortable experience that im just going to have to get through.

I think I’d prefer to stay on the strips. Personally I don’t like the idea of not being in control of how much buprenorphine is released in my body on a day to day basis. Because some days I take less than other days. Some days I have to let the buprenorphine clear out of my system for 12 hours to a day before taking more or my brain will just get tired of being on it nonstop, and also so I’m not tired 24/7. Taking less some days can also help me with tapering down on my own.

Hey Papa Doc, Sam Afgan here. Had to change my name because my account was erased under my original name because I made a video about how the Moderna Vaccine gave me severe myocarditis and even believe it or not left ventricular problems my c reactive protein was over 8 from the shots. Anyways to the point of this video I’m actually finally getting off the suboxone now with almost no withdrawals because I took months to study and find the best compounds to help get off the opioids. Here are the magical compounds to significantly help get off opioids that most people don’t even know about. First “Memantine” which is one of the most proper NMDA antagonists like DXM or ketamine but it doesn’t cause psychoactive effects like those compounds and has a longer half life. In Iran there’s tons of studies on this and they actually use memantine or dxm in their methadone clinics they give patients one of these nmda antagonists along with their methadone or suboxone and it prevents them from developing a tolerance so they can stay on lower doses. Next injections of Cerebrolysin and Cortexin these are peptides from porcine sources which basically means it’s peptides extracted from pigs brains like BDNF and NGF, in America you don’t hear of these compounds because in America it’s not profitable to cure things these peptides cause massive amounts of neurogenesis like lions mane mushrooms are supposed to. If you inject and NOT IV but IM over 15ml of cerebrolysin it actually stops withdrawals so that kind of enforced my belief that one of the reasons ibogaine helps so much must be because it induces neurogenesis. Then there’s a anti inflammatory compound known as “ibudilast” another compound that helps with opioid withdrawals, lastly there is a peptide known as DSIP aka Delta Sleep Inducing Peptide there’s studies on how this peptide helps alleviate opioid withdrawals and since it is a peptide for sleep mainly i take it at night to help actually get decent sleep because that’s one of the biggest issues with coming off opioids is the insomnia and the less you sleep the crappier you feel and the slower you recover. Finally after 6 years I’m on my way to get off the suboxone. I’m one of those who believes the suboxone is harder to come off of than heroin. I guess it’s true that the longer the half life of a drug the more difficult and lengthy the withdrawals will be.

I'm so ready to make this jump, been doing a lot of research on reddit and elsewhere to help determine my willpower with this. I find the dosing ritual to be comforting but I'm pretty sure that's my addict brain, not really a positive. It would be helpful for people like me who feel that need to place a sub, to be able to take a dummy strip in place of the real one, to kinda keep that ritual but able to break it easier without wds, or pwd. Sometimes it's really just the act of placing it and dissolving it as we do our daily routines that's needed, while the injection works in the background.. hopefully that makes sense, it's been a long day for me so the right words aren't coming to me as they normally would.. lol Just a thought on what could help people who really need that sub ritual while tapering off on the Subutex!

I know a few friends who have done the shot had had no withdrawals and for me I believe not having to wake up everyday and take a pill to start your day would help mentally to make you maybe think your not on it or as focused on taking something just to function 🤔 my doctor said I can try it and if I absolutely don't like it or it don't work that I can always go back on the pills which was comforting!

I wonder, if you are stable on a low dose of Suboxone, say 2mg or 4mg of Suboxone per day, would you be able to get a Sublocade injection at a lower dose than the 300mg/month one you mentioned? Is there a shot available that is 50mg/month? If so, would you then be able to get that 50mg injection, go the 25-30 days after the injection was administered, and use that delivery method to become physically non-dependent from the medication? Logically, it sounds like that would create an environment that would provide patients to experience a much more comfortable taper process, with the end goal of being free from Suboxone or any medication assisted treatment, but I do not know if it works that way. Thank you.

Oh if you have to have surgery and you’re on sub then your are just up a shyt creek without a paddle! I have Graves disease and had a thyroidectomy. My surgery was 5-6 hours longer than most because my thyroid goiter had grown backwards and intertwined in my spine somehow? Anyway, a normal thyroidectomy isn’t supposed to hurt too much I don’t think. My incision in front wasn’t bad at all. However, omg, the back of my neck hurt so bad I felt like I could’ve died! It would’ve been relief to have had isis cut my head off! That’s probably a horrible thing to say but that’s how I felt at the time. My doctor of course acted as though I was a baby but it was every bit as bad as giving birth with no epidural or pain medication. Different kind of pain but nonetheless... So, in the hospital I was on fentanyl, Percocet and dilaudid. I truly don’t believe it even touched the pain at all. The Sub blocked any of the pain relief. Gosh it was truly horrendous. Therefore, I am wanting so badly to get off sub because if I have a car wreck or some other surgery(I’m sick always), I don’t want to ever endure that type of agonizing pain again! It’s pure he11!

This stuff pisses me off so much. The whole system and big pharma is so fucked. I hate that people are automatically addicts and junkies and abusers just because there dependent on opioids... if someone needs pain management, has chronic pain, is responsible, and not stupid then why cant they just get prescribed what they need? Buprenorphine & methadone don’t work very well for the majority of people... ask yourself this... if it helped... if it was a viable solution... then why are there still addicts out there? Plus what kills people is mainly fentanyl laced crap or those dumb enough to do straight fentanyl. It’s such a stupid move. The half life is incredibly short and there’s no euphoria or pain killing. Just instant sleep... anyways, even for the addicts.. I feel bad for them. This shit doesn’t help. They need real help. And therapy/psychologists. As for me it freaking is so annoying cause of course the USA is super ignorant about “drugs” and still living last century. As if prohibition ever worked... and not like it stems to racism or anything in opium dens and marijuana as well cause of racism and partially industries worrying about hemp products. Stupid religious Europeans who came to America and stole it from real Americans lol they really didn’t fudge us. As much as the ones who came a little later or were the next gen. They were crazy.

And just because I was malpractices on, and suddenly in 2015 they banned tramadol from over the counter sales... I couldn’t afford pills and my last doctor visit fucking scarred me and mocked me. I was like duck it. I’ll buy it myself, then I couldn’t afford it... so I switched to black tar. Way cheaper. Still expensive unless buying in bulk. But yeah. U need a good connection for that. Not everyone has that. I’m lucky as hell. But it sucks that I been using opioids opiates since 2012 due to malpractice. And legally until 2015. Then suddenly I’m a criminal and had to be forced to buy off the street. And since then I kept my tolerance the same. And use on a regimented schedule. I don’t abuse. Only when needed and I push it even... but I’m still thrown into the category of gross scum junkie drug abusers. I hate that so much. I met those types of people and I’m nothing like them. I tried teaching them not to abuse crap and they all get super upset... they don’t even have any physical body pain lol they do it for fun. Why can’t we advance our country? Stop arresting innocent people. I been to jail twice for minding my own business whilst working but o got called on and cops illegally searched me and crap. This system is so ducked. I don’t know what’s gonna happen anymore. I’m so desperate for just a logical and helpful plan or answer. So many folk are suffering and law enforcement are like Nazis “I’m just following orders”. No morals or thought involved! Why can’t everyone just WAKE UP?!?! Opioids aren’t freaking meth or cocaine. They don’t mentally change u. Hell weed is stronger of a drug. It’s just physical dependence. That screws people. Why can’t people educate themselves? We have the internet FFS. Stop torturing and judging people. Especially if they work hard and are respectful and good people... it’s so hypocritical that alcohol and tobacco are legal. They kill way more innocents and users.... honestly if someone is respectful hard working and etc. let them do what they want in he privacy of their homes!!!

Doc what if you are in a painful accident and need narcotic analgesics? This is also the issue I have with the pill form of buprenorphine since the buprenorphine itself is such a strong antagonist at the receptor, I could only imagine what the shot would do to it, I no I'm paranoid but is this an issue you see alot with your buprenorphine patients....?

High doses of a very lipophilic opioid such as fentanyl and dilaudid is what I've been told by my doctor along with other drugs such as ketamine. My brother compound fractured his leg while on Suboxone so I'm speaking from his experience.

Does anyone have any advice for me? Today I went in to get my first injection. I want to go on it for many reason. I've been on films for almost 5 years. I'm ready to come off and I've been told the injection is a great way to come off. But today I had a panic attack and I changed my mind. My pain tolerance has gone down extremely low since becoming an opiate addict. I'm afraid of how badly it hurts. But I am also afraid of how I will do mentally. I cant just take something if I start to feel sick. I really do want to go on this injection but these two things are holding me back. They said they will hold the sublocaide for me unless I decide I really don't want it.

When you did dope did you get that worried ? Isn’t 2 mins of pain worth not having to worry about it anymore ? Get the shot. It’s the best thing I ever did

Actually, myself included, I know people, as you said, that the dosing every day is part of recovery. We don't like the idea of taking something even once a day. I break mine up to four times a day. One, it helps with pain, the reason I started opioids in the first place. Second, looking forward to having something to take is calming. I don't know why. We all seem to think it works for us. I take 16mg in 24 hour period. Basically, the way my friends and I have described it, is that when you're used to taking pills every few hours, for years and years, it just helps to do it this way.

My counselor says that you’re not supposed to use it as a reward. It helps to keep that brain circuit alive that helped make us addicts in the first place. I suppose that’s if you want to eventually come off of bupe one day. But if you want to stay on it indefinitely who cares I guess.

@@EdwardRatliff as time goes by, you take it further and further apart. But I was also told to break mine up for pain, as well. The first reason I got addicted in the first place.

My opinion is that Sublocade is ideal because I don't have to manage a script. I don't have to deal with Pharmacists. I don't have to dose everyday. I don't have to store dangerous film aroun d the kids.
