What are the advantages of switching? How uncomfortable should i expect to feel? How easy is it to succesfuly reduce subutex? How long would it take to go from 12mg of subutex to nothing whcils still remainig fairly comfortable? Thanks for your help! really appreciated x Hi, i am trying to get off Methadone, ive been on it for opiate addiction for a year at 70ml and i an now down to 25ml and i want to get off it ASAP! i hate it, it rules my life! i was told that it would be easier to switch to subutex than continue lowering meth. Then when im on Subutex i can lower that until i can stop that. But i don't know anything about it and i want to know if it will be easier or not.
