Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am going to get off of opiates and i was told tapering will help. I started chewing 100 mcg fentanol patches about 1 month ago. Trying to get off those was brutal....I was taking suboxone and the suboxone did nothing. I've stopped the patches and am now trying to taper down using the liquid under the tongue morphine. Am I doing the right thing? Will I be able to go back to the suboxone now that I am using less of the morphine and have a more tolerable detox?
