Hey Kassy,
I sent you a PM this afternoon explaining some things about Suboxone, check your messages.
The PM more or less answers the question you just posted, but here’s a little more direct answer. Suboxone has an extremely long half life, it stays in your system a long time (37 hours). Most opiates like Oxy and Hydrocodone have a half life of 4 to 6 hours, unless your taking an Extended Release version like OxyContin.
So, because of this long half life, most people don’t wake up and feel that burning need to dose right away.
