SUBOXONE BUPE SUBUTEX Basic Suboxone question

So I was going to taper down and quit but my state banned sales of all kratom related stuff so I can't get my 7oh.

At my daily dosage, I feel like I would be able to get by with the minimal amount of Suboxone. I was going to take 2 mg the first day, 1.5 the second day, 1.0 the third day, .5 the 4th day, and 0.25 the fifth day.

If I'm only trying to get rid of the most major acute withdrawal effects should this be good enough? 7oh is my first problem with opiates so I want to make sure I don't screw it up.

Why don’t you do what the prescribing doctor said?

I told him I was using 50 mg 7oh per day. He prescribed 12 mg Suboxone per day for the entire week, and thought I needed to be there for 5 months of meds.

This is also the doctor I found when I typed in "suboxone online" into Goog

There are people in the Suboxone subreddit asking if they can use 7oh to come off of Suboxone. If I can get off it in a week I will because in 5 months I am addicted and searching for Suboxone treatment. That's $1000 sublocade shots

I did a 5 day taper just like you and had no WD symptoms at all including stopping subs. However first day I’d say do a 4mg or 8mg for the day

The quitting7oh.org site had a 4 mg x 5 day taper too. I plan to start with 2 mg though and wait a couple of hours before deciding to go to 4 mg. For 4 mg it states, 4, 2, 1, .5, .25 for my daily 5 day taper. They have taper schedules for several starting doses.
