Thanks for posting this, as I finally know what was causing the issues I had when I was abusing roxis. I had pain so bad I thought I was going to die. I barely ate or went to the bathroom, yet my stomach stuck out. I never went to the doctor because I suspected that it was due to the extremely large amounts of opiates I was using. I actually wonder now how close I was to really hurting myself or dying from it.

After I started suboxone, I never had this issue. Yet one more reason I thank suboxone for my life today.

I will say to those that are suffering from constipation on subs, that reducing your dose may help. Especially Ryan, you don’t mention what dose you are at, but I know that when I went down to about 4 mg and under, the constipation went away.

Now that I am off subs for 18 days, I am having the opposite problem, but I’m sure that’s just my guts readjusting to the constipating nature of subs.
