Mark, you are missing my point.
Stopping high dose Oxycodone suddenly Is not much different from having buprenorphine Bump some off the receptors. In both cases The pain receptors are blocked an withdrawal Will occur to some extent. You stated on this thread that you stopped high dose Oxy with No withdrawal. That is the reason I am posting here today. Buprenorphine is classed as pain drug And is used for chronic pain in patch form And also sublingual use and by injection. It might compete at the receptor level and Create a form of withdrawal , but totally removing Oxy will also deprive the pain receptors as Well. Withdrawal will come from either Way and only the intensity will vary depending On the person , dose and length of time Involved with the treatment.
