It’s hard to say what dose you need Malsmith, but it sounds like you did take too much. I’m not sure why your doctor would tell you to take 8mg after being on such a low dose of Norco. Honestly, it sounds like you need to find a new doctor. It seems as if the one you have doesn’t understand suboxone very well. If it was me, I would try taking only 2mg today since what you took yesterday will still be in your system, and then try dosing 4mg Saturday split throughout 2-3 doses during the day. Obviously, that’s just a suggestion from another suboxone patient. If you can find the right dose for you all these side effects should go away after you adjust to it. But as has been said before, you are going to drive your tolerance up if you take this very long, so try to keep your dose as low as possible.

What’s the situation with your pancreatitis? Is that going to require surgery? Just be sure that your doctor handling this knows you are on suboxone so they can handle your surgery and aftercare properly.
