Question by : If I did a small line of LOW grade heroin this morning around 9:30am, can I take a suboxone later in the day?
I have 2mg of Suboxone I want to take, and I do not even feel the effects of the small amount of heroin I did this morning. I’va taken suboxone and then heroin without getting sick, but never heroin and then suboxone before.

It depends whether you are physically dependent on opioids. If you have been taking heroin regularly for more than a few days, you should wait at least 24-48 hours before taking Suboxone. Otherwise you take the risk of experiencing “precipitated withdrawal” — the buprenorphine knocks the heroin (or other opioid) from your receptors, which will basically cause instant withdrawal.
