Suggest Dosage For Subutex
Question: my doctor has put me on movantik, 25mgs and I have just stopped subutex 2 days ago. I have taken 2 doses and I am worried I should not be taking it.
Brief Answer:
Continue as prescribed
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
I read your question and i understand your concern. Movantik is an opioid antagonist mostly used for opioid induced constipation and is reverse of subutex so no matter when you take it , it does not correlate with subutex and can be taken and should be taken. Rest your doctor has prescribed it and should be taken as suggested to have the maximum benefits from this drug.
I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
