[|Human|] I have been seeing all my doctors to reevaluate my meds 2 weeksw ago I had 2 blackouts and then I fainted and hit my head I have a stent 1 and have been on effient 10 mgs. I will see my neurologist nest week as well as my cardiologist I have severe fibromyalgia and do not take drugs or drink. My new fibro doctor put me on low dose naltrexone. I am having severe sweating chronic nausea memory problems and tons of crying. The doctor said the bupe could not cause this . It is on the pharmacy print out of sublingual bupenorphine all my symptoms the doctor yesterday said to keep taking it. I know I should have gone to the hospital and as I said I am seeing each of my specialists to rule out what med is at fault can I stop the sublingual bupenorphine As I said I am not a substance abuser they are using it for fibro pain. My question is this . Can I stop the 1mg. bupenorphine sublingual I cut to 1 mg.I know it is either my blood thinner or the bupe .Been on the blood thinner for 1 year. I just want to discontinue my 1 mg bupe till next week . Can I just stop it till I get to the doctors next week . I feel like someone kicked me in the stomach. I just had a colonoscopy.
[|AI|]  Hi, Bupenorphine is an opioid medication generally used to treat opioid addiction and not usually used as a pain medication. The side effects you have mentioned may not be caused by buprenorphine. I would suggest you to rule out other causes such as blood sugar and blood pressure before stopping the Chat Doctor.  If other causes are ruled out, you can consider stopping buprenorphine and switch over to other pain medication after discussing with your doctor. Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
