I Really Need Help. Anyone Know Home Remedies for a Suboxone Withdrawal?
Question by : I really need help. Anyone know home remedies for a Suboxone Withdrawal?
My husband is on day 4 of almost a complete “cold turkey” detox. He was taking Suboxone 8mg film strips once a day for 4 months to fill the need of the Heroin he was shooting for the 6 months prior.
The first day wasnt so bad for him, he took nothing and was able to sleep almost 6 hours. Day 2, not so good. He took 2 150mg pills of Trazadone I think its spelled. That knocked him out for a few hours and had all anxiety and depression at ease. Last night he took 1 Trazadone pill and it had the opposite effect on him for some reason. He was very restless very tired but unable to sleep. We’re on day 4 now and Im very nervous for him. He’s having anxiety and feels very sluggish. His body feels very tired and hes feelings all around like shit. If ANYONE has ANY home remedies to help, please let me know.

There isnt any home remidies for withdrawl from suboxone. its a little dangerous to do the cold turkey thing. he shouldve started taking less suboxone and gradually weened off it. withdrawls from suboxones are as bad as the heroin withdrawl or methadone or oxycodone or any form of opiates. im not a doctor but ive lived through it all. id tell him to take a half of one of the sublingule strips and take a 1/2 everyday for several weeks then go to a 1/4. thats how i did it and im off everything now. and by the way, trazadone isnt going to help much. neither is xanax or anything else except opiates or synthetic opium. or the neural blockers like suboxone.
