A member asked:
Is 12-15 hours long enough time after taking oxycodone to take suboxone without getting early withdrawal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: If you're taking Suboxone to treat opiod drug addiction, you should wait until you experience some signs of withdrawal, then begin it. If you're taking it for chronic pain, 12-15 hours is certainly not long enough for sustained release oxycodone, and prob not long enough for immediate release oxycodone. For that I recommend about 20 hours.
