| Hello everyone! Tomorrow will be one full week on subs and a week and a half w/o pain pills- woo hoo! I feel amazing but have felt shaky since starting the subs. My hands are constantly trembling. Holding a pen, taking a drink, whatever. Every single person around me notices. I just say I’ve had too much coffee (cuz its nobody’s business but my own darn it.) I’m on 8mg two x’s a day. Is this a overdose side effect or what? Help, please? |
Hey Gennay…
People can experience myoclonic jerks on buprenorphine, but they’d be more a kind of occasional / random twitching than a constant tremor. Tremor is a different kind of movement disorder and is more associated with opioid withdrawal.
Have you noticed it getting better or worse since you gradually stabilised on the Sub?
I’ve actually had issues with tremor myself, but that’s more of a side-effect of the lithium than anything.
