Dr. Peter Coleman, who is Board-certified in Addiction Medicine and is in long-term recovery himself, explains why it can be so difficult to get off of even low doses of buprenorphine/naloxone (aka Suboxone, Bunavail, etc).
-Safe, Comfortable Outpatient Detox
The Coleman Institute for Addiction Medicine has been a leading outpatient addiction treatment center since 1998. Our innovative withdrawal management programs, often referred to as The Coleman Method, have helped thousands of people free themselves from addiction to Alcohol, Opioids, and Benzodiazepines. Originally founded in Richmond, Virginia, our network has expanded to cover 14 cities across the US.
-3 - 8 Day Opioid Detoxification Process
For short-acting opioids like oxycodone, most patients complete their detox and begin Naltrexone therapy within 5 days. Longer-acting opiates like Suboxone and Methadone typically take 8 days. Our standard opioid treatment package in Richmond, VA , Willoughby, OH (Cleveland areaO and Wellesley, MA (Boston, MA) includes the detox and 6 months of case management and Naltrexone therapy. As a non-addictive opioid blocker, Naltrexone dramatically reduces cravings so that patients can focus on their recovery. We have a 98% success rate for completing detoxification and starting Naltrexone therapy. During the detox, we work with patients and their families to develop an appropriate aftercare plan. We also offer a convenient, 3-day outpatient alcohol detox and a Rapid Benzodiazepine Detox.
-Caring, Empathetic Environment
Dr. Peter Coleman understands first-hand the challenges our patients are facing due to his own personal struggle with the disease of addiction. He has been in long term recovery since 1984. Dr. Coleman has dedicated his career to treating addiction patients and creating a team and an environment conducive to long term recovery for his patients.

I took 8mg films for 16 YEARS. my doc and I tapered slowly down to. 25mg. I think .50 was the lowest I could go. It's been 5 months sub free and I feel great. The worst part was insomnia. The first few nights you could've hit me with an elephant tranquilizer and I still wouldn't sleep. I'm 57 and it's not too hard to stop. I'm free!

I am currently one week in sober. Been on 12/16 mg a day for 7 years. About 2 strips. Im at the point in my life that I deserve to feel the shittiness of withdrawal for ever letting it go this long. Im doing this cold turkey. No alcohol. No weed. No drugs. I hate it controlling/having a say over my life. I already feel a little better and not as much anxiety/depression/numbness. Yes the no sleep really sucks along with body aches but I suck it up and sleep 3/4 hours a day. I just keep telling myself it wont be like this forever. And I can do it. I control my destiny. Good luck to everyone trying or going thru the same as me. Or even if you haven't started yet but wanna do it. The first step is one day. And then its one day at a time. Mind over matter. God bless.

How is the physical pain, compared to Heroin or Oxycodone? I stopped Heroin 12 Days ago and have been using 1mg of Suboxone a day, usually one 8mg Subutex will last me 8 Days. So am I doing good but making the tablet last for a whole week or more? Or am I still going to feel excruciating pain like Heroin/Oxycodone detox and withdrawal?

If you're taking 1mg a day, I'd taper down to at least .5mg for a month before you jump off. Or even .25mg. everyone is different, but honestly it shouldn't be that bad. I definitely wouldn't jump off at 1mg a day though

My experience is with methadone. The withdrawals will be about the same. The difference for me is that when I’ve gotten off methadone I was mentally prepared so I could tolerate the physical withdrawals even though they were horrible. Getting off heroin/fentanyl was not that bad for me but I wasn’t mentally prepared so I kept relapsing. I’m back on methadone and I’m gonna taper all the day down going down 2 milligrams every 2 weeks. I’m still going to withdraw but I’ll be so focused I’ll be able to handle it. It lasts about a month but it’s so worth it.

It;s been 8 days now and I can Function OK. Still twicking legs etc. at night, but I can sleep a little. SUBOXONE to me was a savior. I knew it would be hard to get off of.

My mentality is that it's going to kill me if i don't get it right this time. It's life or death. And I want to live. This mentality has changed my whole life in the last 14 days. I was up late last night applying for drug addiction counseling jobs. People laugh when I say this but I'm going to war on the opiate epidemic. But it ain't funny or a joke. We need to support each other. We can't go to a doctor and have them give us another drug to avoid the symptoms. Those withdrawal symptoms are your body telling you "I'm going to war for you". I stopped being afraid of the symptoms. We aren't made of glass. If I have to get up in the middle of the night because someone is detoxing and doesn't have the motivation or energy to cook a meal, I wanna be that man. I am ready to devote and dedicate the rest of my life to attack and destroy this. It took 10 years from me. Almost lost my son. Both my mother and father died from drug and alcohol addiction. My little brother is still currently addicted to heroin. My older brother struggles with any pill. Not to sound arrogant but the addiction in my family stops with me. It's time to evolve and change the things that are destroying us. I appreciate you taking the time to respond to me. I am obsessed with learning everything about it aside from my own trials and tribulations. Like I said my number is 423-433-7437 if you or anyone needs someone to talk to too pass the time.

I quit fentanyl in 2019, I was aware of the difficulty of coming off suboxone. The doctor was trying hard to get me on it, I did not want to. He was raving about the success he had had with patients, saying tapering down would be easy when the time came, years down the road. I had to ask him four or five times, directly, how many of his patients had successfully quit suboxone. He finally answered...zero. While I understand the benefit it can provide, saying no to all opioids and going through a tough cold turkey was one of the best decisions of my life. Four years later, sober and no looking back!
@thecolemaninstituteforaddi6234
Thank you for sharing your story, Tres Fort. Buprenorphine can be a great treatment for many people, and we have about 100 such patients in Richmond. We also think it’s important that people understand the pros and cons before starting any mode of MAT for opioids-whether it is methadone, buprenorphine, or naltrexone. Our historical expertise has been in getting folks quickly detoxes off of opioids (including buprenorphine and methadone) and onto the long-acting opioid-blocker naltrexone to reduce cravings and help people get stable in early recovery. No one path works for everyone. Very glad to hear that you found the right path for you. Best wishes!

Then I broke up the pills into the smallest pieces I could until I ran out. The withdrawal was HORRIBLE! The first week was what you would expect. Miserable Opiate withdrawals. That was the easy part . The hard part was the next month and a 1/2 of feeling like trash 24 / 7. Literally not sleeping for days on end, depression and cravings and zero energy. But if you want to get free, it’s the price of admission. And it’s worth every horrible second! I still don’t sleep through the night after a year but I’ve learned to be fine with it.

I just wanted to let you know that I have gone on Suboxone and I just got off of it 12 days ago. I suffer from severe severe restless leg syndrome. I have had times where I cannot sleep and all I do is thrash my legs so hard I bounce off the bed for eight hours and this happens over and over and over it’s like torture. I finally talked to a Doctor Who had wrote two books on restless leg syndrome. And she told me to take magnesium. So I have been taking 1000 mg of magnesium at night and my restless legs are gone even after stopping the Suboxone. Most people with restless leg syndrome Need to take a lot of magnesium because they are magnesium deficient. Good luck and God bless you. Trust me on the magnesium, it works miracles for us this leg syndrome. And yes I take 1000 mg every single night and no restless leg syndrome at all.

I was taking magnesium for the same reason but my physician told me to stop taking it because it can cause strokes in patients without a deficiency. I only say this because I was unaware of the dangers of something you can buy at any dollar store. also I'm glad to hear that it works for you. I also suggest talking to your Dr because they can tell you whether it's safe for You or Not.

Clonidine can help with restless legs. I tapered from 20mg/day (8-8-4) to .25mg a day (.25-0-0). This Doctor at 2:19 saying 0.075 was a big dose for this guy is REAL. This Doc is also smart by assuring you that your energy level won't recover for a few months. Exercise, Clonidine and a FAT diet (eat as much as you care and don't look back) can help you. Experiencing huge depression is normal. Weed can help a lot if you can get it. If not, a drink or 3 "now and then" might help you through your worst. Think, smoke (a cig or weed) and take a drink before you cave to the opioid. You can do it.

That happened to me twice. I made it 3 weeks twice and was like " I have shit to do". The second time was easier because I took kratom. Both times I tried cold turkey. I'm pretty over it at this point so I'm being patient. Because I know what it could be. I'm just going to take a crumb here and there when I can't take it anymore "to function" so long until my body adjusts to everything. I do believe that's the way to do it. I also think just not taking it for a few days just to see how potent the drug is for your mentality is good too. It's a shame to say a lot of people will be on it for the rest of their lives. I won't. I appreciated the mind clarity I got from being off it. It really all boils down to your body being dependent.

Always wondered if kratom would be helpful in coming off subs. I had a stint with dependency on oxycodone, and used kratom for years after which is probably the only thing that kept me from being hopelessly addicted to the oxy. It likely saved my life. Clean from it all now. Never used subs, but hearing these stories of getting off replacement meds sounds worse in some cases than the opioid they replaced.

The reason it's so hard to get off suboxone is you aren't chasing a high. You're chasing normalcy. That's all it is. Suboxone doesn't get you high except for maybe the first 2 times you take it. After that it's about maintaining the status quo and if your body senses any slight deviation of that, it's off to the races so to speak. I'm in day 4 of detoxing right now, been taking suboxone for 12 years. Biggest mistake of my life. I should have just gone back to pills and then detoxed from that because that was easier than this.

@John33gfed Good for you bro. When I started taking it, insurance didn't cover suboxone visits so the doctor charged like 100 bucks a visit. If you're one of the few doctors around able to subscribe it, why would u not get ppl on it long term at 100 a pop? Anyway, I strongly recommend using kratom when it's time for you to fully stop. It helps take the edge off like u wouldn't believe. Within 5 days I was feeling pretty normal besides some yawning and lack of energy. The 2 times I tried before without kratom, I couldn't get passed 3 days.

But I have a great doctor andMy doctor is very supportive of me and I am so glad he understands that I still need it.

I was put on this as a pain killer. I have no history of opioid abuse. 4 years in I had to stop as the doctor thought it was causing a health issue. It ruined me. Sounds extreme but I went completely insane . 7 months in a brain fog so thick I barely remember 2023. I began engaging in high risk behaviors that I was into during my active alcoholism. I have been sober 5 years but it was like I was drinking again. Despite an ambundance of prescribed sleeping meds, I was wired for days on end , eventually crashing for 18-24 hours and missing important appointments and dates. No therapist seemed to understand my issue. Not one ever met anybody who came off of it. Who knew not taking substances would make you appear very much as a person who took substances all the time. Thanks for sharing your experiences, by the looks of some, some people did not struggle as much. Maybe my wiring was screwed at the time. I did a lot of damage but eventually came around again.

A longer half-life, higher affinity for the opiod receptor is idiotic to transition to in my opinion.. that's why suboxone is so hard to kick, when kicking heroin or fentanyl would be easier.

This is one of the better videos I have seen. And this is exactly how it is. You can get down to a quarter of an 8 mg tablet a day and you can still be okay and feel fine. But you start trying to go lower than that and that's when you start feeling some effects. I think the key is to get down to that 2 mg mark and start doing less and less and then start implementing days where you skip days. Put yourself into a little discomfort but not complete withdrawal. You have to get to that point to where you can still function but you feel a little bit bad. I think if you pair this with exercise and a good diet that it will allow you to work out and help with your sleep and natural endorphin production. I was able to get about 6 years ago. And that's how I was able to do it. I would not take anything until I absolutely couldn't stand it and then I would take a sliver. I got down to the point to where I could take a couple crumbs and it would level me off. Then I started skipping days and then I started getting three or four days go by where I was pretty much taking nothing and I knew I could do it at that point. Unfortunately an addicts mindset they get scared and my doctor appointment was coming up and I knew if I didn't go back then this would truly be it. If I could only rewind time back to that day there's no telling how much better my life may be today. I'm going to try to give soon and get off but unfortunately I've been on it well over a decade and I think I'm going to struggle physically. It doesn't bother me too bad mentally as far as cravings. I just can't stand being sick and feeling bad while trying to work a job.

I was on Suboxone for a few years, and I came up with a way that made getting off of it much easier. When I was ready to stop taking it, I did so, and once the withdrawal symptoms started to hit, I took 10mg of methadone. That allowed me to sleep and not have all the joint aches that accompanied the WD. Methadone has such a long half-life that, by the time it wore off, most of the Suboxone withdrawal was over with. I would like to hear what your medical opinion of such a strategy is. I think that kind of crossover approach could really help a lot of people.

I took 4 to 5 hot showers a day at the beginning. I know I still have a long way to go. I actually quit smoking. As the taste of a cigarette was repulsive. During withdrawal. All I really want to do Wright now is sleep. For a good 10 hours. And not have nightmares. Oh man this crap is so brutal to get off of. Day 17 its certainly better than day 6. My sinuses are still screwed up. Anxious alot through out the day. Still sneezing aolt. Still not sleeping wright. This is looking like its goinv to take months to get feeling normsl again.

I had been off the suboxne a week and on a IV drip of Fentanyl, Propofol and Versed for about 8 days. Then on morphine and other painkillers until 1/19 and had open heart surgery ( more anesthesia) and more morphine and other pain medication I can’t remember for another week in ICU. So I basically went through some withdrawals when I was allowed to go home x month after the heart attack. I don’t know if the suboxone caused any problems while I was unconscious but I wish I had gotten off it 12 years ago when I was dawn to 1/8 -1/16 of a tablet. This was before the film.

Could it be that doctors prescribe ridiculously high doses, not only during induction, but also during the maintenance stage?
@Itried20takennames
@Itried20takennames 4 месяца назад
No. The doses are based off of what worked best in studies, and is called standard of care. And docs don’t get a dime extra if you are on a higher dose, or a lower dose or if you never bothered to fill the prescription….they get paid a flat fee unrelated to dose or prescriptions. If you fill a prescription - that money goes to the pharmacy only, not the doc. And they have no need to maintain patients…plenty of those naturally, and many addiction docs have wait times due to high demand. The lowest dose that works is the “best” dose, but the reality is that many need a higher dose for it to have an effect. It’s not a conspiracy, it’s just very difficult biochemically, and a hard process.

Damned if I do damned if I don't. Chronic pain sucks but so does oxy. So far I have fewer side effects with bup but also do experience more pain.. way better than just Tylenol/advil but just wish I could turn back the hands of time and stay out the octagon on that fateful Sunday.

Is there any reason I should stop taking Suboxone? It’s been a miracle for the last 5 years, going beyond addiction treatment it seems to work as a sort of anti-depressant. Night and day difference compared to my life before. Btw, I detoxed at the Coleman Institute about 7 years ago for regular opiates, it was a fantastic facility. Was clean about 6 months, should have taken Naloxone daily but it was too easy to skip. I’ve been clean 5 years now on Bup and haven’t even had a single craving. Hoping I don’t get some terrible news that makes me reconsider staying on it

I stopped cold for almost 3 months. Even at 3 months, I had 0 energy, was depressed, and could barely function at work. I ended up doing like 0.5mg or even 0.25 for a day. Then off for 3. Now I may have taken at least a little every day for the last week, and I feel either withdrawls again, or just the adjustment from something to nothing. Suboxone gives me incredible energy and works as an anti-depresdant, but I didn't realize until I stopped how much emotion had been stifled. What the hell do I do now? If I quit again today, my withdrawls won't be as bad as after 10 years. Its work. I can't function at a high level at work. I just didn't give my brain enough time to heal. The depression won this rd. I got the next!

I got addicted to Suboxone within 2 weeks. I've been on it for 2 years. I went to jail for 270 days. First county, they gave me 16 mg. (What I was prescribed) then, when the home county came to get me, they laughed when I said can I have my sandwiches? (Subs) and gave me ibuprofen. They did give me my mirtazapine and symblalta. Which... Kind of helped. I felt crappy for 2 weeks then kind of just ate honey buns the next three months. Then I got out, to my entire script full in my belongings. Needless to say. Back on it. Legally. But I can't even imagine coming off of it. I didn't have any for about 4 days and boy, did my life get extraordinarily rough. I wasn't yet withdrawling physically. I had absokutely no energy, I was forgetting stuff. It was bad. Then I got the txt. Your rx is ready. Do you know my heart dropped. It's just another addiction. My advice to anyone, check yourself Into a phsyc ward or get arrested. That's how you can get off. And it's going to suck. It didn't really hurt that bad in jail? I guess because I KNEW I couldn't get it. But there was a pregnant girl in there. And she got them guess who I tried to be best friends with. This drug is an opiate. Idc about the agnostic. It's lik #4 on the strongest opiates list. Legal dope. I wish I never found it. Although, better than methadone. That was just extremely extremely extremely heart wrenching.

I have been on bup for more than 11 years taking 24 mg a day. And I really do not want to stop and do not need to stop EVEN. I should stop takink clonopin.. but opioid substitution is different. I rather stay on it for all life than live like befor BUP. I am not able to stop. And why should I? It is just a med. Every morning routine. Nothing else. I pay NO money and I feel like a man. Thanks to BUP

I rather spend 5-7 days In withdrawals from Percocet than 3 to 4 weeks of withdrawals from suboxone or methadone

Doctors often start people with a much higher dosage than what is really needed to avert withdrawals. Many are encouraged to go on maintenance or choose to stay on a high dose for too long.

I have one question.. Last year I had an motorcycle accident, and broke my leg (tibia,patella,knee,femur) almost everything.. Thank God after 6 operations and 1year off I'm walking again. So, I was on sub when it happend,and I didn't admit to doctors that I used it. At that time a got off, but they were given me opioids for pain (tramadol) and when I finished clinical treament I got back to Sub. Now I'm using 2mg daily, and I need to go back to hospital to have remove osteo sintetic material from my leg. I know it's not smart to keep your mouth shut about using,becouse anastesia,but I have my reasons why I'm keeping it as a Secret..

Thanks for the video mate!! I was taking Opioids for over a decade and decided it was finally time to get off.. I have been on Suboxone for over 3 years. I have been tapering off Suboxone now for over a year which was pretty simple for me.. I know everyone is different and this drug takes time to come off people and your body will let you know....🎯🎯 Today is #DAY 3 without any Subs and its still pretty rough but manageable😕!!! Quick tip - I don't care what any one says Cannabis helps with those 1st - 72 hr withdraws symptoms big time 🌿🌿.. I can now finally put this behind me once and for all 💪👊✊!!!
