suboxone strip how long to feel effects
1 If you are coming off a high dose of Subutex or Suboxone, cold turkey, the acute phase may not creep in until around the week mark. 2  Usually after 12 to 14 days you will see light at the end of the tunnel but some lingering withdrawals will last for up to six weeks, although these are more of a burden than a debility. Both Subutex and Suboxone have a 36 hour mean half-life which means half the drug will be out your system in 36 hours but this does not mean the other half will be gone 36 hours after this.
