If you've been taking Suboxone for about a month and then while skateboarding you broke your ankle is it safe to take Lortab which the doc at the hospital prescribed?

my mom is a nurse so in this case i know quite a bit about medicine, and as far as i know, loratabs are for depression. i would definitely not take those and try to skate or anything like that

The Lortabs I've been taking have been 10mg Hydrocodone pills mixed with APAP. If you take them while on Suboxone, either the analgesic (pain relieving) effects will be lost, or you will become sick much like during withdrawal. If you are going to use opiates, stop taking your Suboxone for a day or two prior.
WOW - Here is a correction.
Lortabs are not for depression... They are for moderate to severe pain.
Some opiate addicts might tell you that they are not depressed when taking them though but please realize that opiates are not used to treat depression.
Try a tri-cyclic or SSRI (selective seratonin reuptake inhibitor) for depression such as prozac, zoloft or even cymbalta.

How long should you wait to take Lortab after suboxone?
Time to wait to take Lortab after SuboxoneI have been on Suboxone for 11 months. I had to have surgery 4 months ago and was taking 6mgs. Suboxone per day. Before I decided to take Lortab post-op I discussed this with my pharmacist. I was told that one can safely take Lortab 3-4 hours after last Suboxone dose. I decided to go ahead and tolerated the Lortab very well. Conversely, the same time is needed to resume taking Suboxone.

Ok, I do these things too...I take 20 mg. of Suboxone daily....I have found, that you can still use opiates (pain killers) and even herion even just 10 hours later.....and still get some mild effects..if you wait longer of course, the higher you'll feel and you would want to take alot more Vicodin than usual to get the same hydrocodone effects you would've been used toif you want the MAX euphoric feeling....wait long enough to srt feeling sick from lack of suboxone and then take them...then youll get the response your looking for
