Bupe & Tolerance

[tptptp]

So from someone with first hand experience please share what bupe has done to your tolerance, has to leveled out, gone up, or decreased, how much sub havre you been using? How long do you wait before your vacation when you gasuge these effects etc. etc. Please gimme details.
I've found that about 6mg of bupe for me is a decent dose, but I'm wondering how bad im making tolerance by sticking with that or if its leveling out etc.? I want to take a break soon with my prescription. An d if bupe REALLY fucks up your tolerance like methadone then I will have to tough it out and get to a lower dose.

Good question, i was thinking of asking this but with cross tolerance to bupe and other opies...


In my experience sub tolerance decreases rapidly without continual administration (under a week or so) at doses of 2mg a day...

As for cross tolerance, I don't think they have an effect on eachother. Wait a day or two, and you can get high. I was clean before getting on subs, and my tolerance seemed just to take its natural course and decrease even more. ;\

It's a weird mixed bag for me, and I've had varying experiences with it.

When I first got on bupe, I was coming off of a habit of about 16 to 20 medium pods a day or maybe 8 to 10 gigs. After being on bupe for a couple months leveling off at about 4 mgs a day, I stupidly started using the pods again.

I didn't dose on bupe one day and tested a very small dose of pods; just 5 small pods, and I got high as fuck. I felt about as high as I did when I first tried opiates, and with such a small amount. The next day was even better, and the third was so strong I puked. It was thrilling. Unfortunately, it started me all over again with a daily habit that took me a few more months to get over.

Fast forward to several months ago when I had gotten back on the bupe again. This time I was on bupe for several weeks but only at about 2 mgs. Someone gave me a 20 mg Oxy, so I waited a full 36 hours without bupe to take it. And I got jack squat from it. Aboslutely nothing; highly disappointing. I was expecting an experience more like several months prior with the pods, but I got absolutely nothing.

Now that I've been on the bupe for at least 4 months, and am at a very tiny dose, I have no idea what my tolerance would be like now, and I don't really want to find out. I'm sure it's small, but this is a weird chemical here. Low doses don't act like higher doses, and little is still known about this stuff.

One thing's for sure, it does maintain some opiate tolerance, and of course the blocking effect must be factored in as well. I know that 8 mgs a day blocked large doses of Kratom really well when I first began on bupe.

Personally, bupe has been great for stabilizing/decreasing tolerance, since it's so easy to taper with, and since you don't get high (or any kind of high that's worth taking more), it's even easier to stay at a stable dose.
