Suboxone--how long does the antagonist affect last after cold turkey?



Hello, I am in the middle of acute opiate withdrawal syndrome, after coming off of Suboxone cold turkey. I know that the Suboxone will cause you to have W/D symptoms if you use ANY sort of opiate, but I'm not sure how long you have to wait. The Buprenorphine/Naloxone in the pill will cause you to get sick from introduction of any other opiates into your system.

I am in terrible, interminable pain, with nausea, muscle cramps akin to charlie horses, about every two minutes, and the leg kicks so bad that I did not sleep one second last night.

If there is anyone, ANYONE out there at all, that knows something about this medication, or has taken it, could you please contact me? I am at my wits end.

Please Help
