If you do some research for doctors who are qualified to prescribe Suboxone, they should be trained properly on how to administer it and how much you will need upon induction.
I knew nothing about it until I spoke with my doctors nurse who instructed me to not take any pills the day of induction and to come in at 3pm. Of course it was a miserable day and I was in terrible shape waiting to see the doctor. They had me fill out a bunch of paperwork mostly asking how much I was taking and how long, and the legal stuff too.
After going out and getting the script filled, they gave me the Suboxone in the office, waited 20 minutes and gave me a little more. That was the best I felt in a long time. Weird feeling for the first few days until my body and mind adjusted to it. They actually gave me too much in the beginning but we got my dose straightened out quickly.
You will not experience any cravings. That part I didn’t believe because my cravings were so intense every day, but it is true. The only side effect I’ve had is feeling a little sleepy if I don’t keep myself busy. Started taking some B-12 and that helped fend off the tiredness.
Spend some time reading the past posts here and you’ll get a good idea on its success.
