A member asked:

For what length of time after taking suboxone can i start my hydrocodone?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Don't: Unless you have some very unique problem, don't mix two opioids. They have different duration of action and add up when used together. This may cause an overdose and trouble breathing. See your doctor to resolve this issue.
