r/Subutex

I had 7 months clean and about 3 weeks ago relapsed on fentanyl and od'd 3 different times in the matter of a few days. I just got prescribed subutex again as I am trying to regain control of my life before I lose everything again. I am not in the position to have 24-48 hours to wait to be able to dose safely on the subutex without going into withdrawals. I have been using between about a gram a week for the past 2-3 weeks. I am trying to find a way to transition from fent to subs without having 24-48 hours to wait to take my subutex due to work.

I've heard of people using a narcan to knock the fentanyl off the receptors and then using kratom right before using the narcan so once the narcans puts them into withdrawals the kratom kicks in shortly after relieving most of the symptoms and then once the kratom wears off their able to dose on the subutex after that and have no issues.

Is there anyone that can verify this works or know of any other methods I can do so I can still work in the morning?

I'd say I have about an 8-hour window.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

So I was on subutex around 18 months ago. I reduced from 12mg to 0.2mg then came off it completely. That was in February this year, and had the worst 3/4 months of depression and anxiety I've ever had. Depression is still there a bit and anxiety, well I never knew what anxiety was until this stage of life! 46 year old male.

I felt I had no choice but to use again, so I used to get back to cgl to get back on subutex. So I've been on it since June I think. Started at 12mg again. Have reduced down to 10mg but not told my case worker yet "seems less contact this time"

So I'm just worried about it this time, and reducing it down. I do not want to be on it for life, but what are people's opinions about how long one should stay on it for?

Cheers.
