Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

While detoxification, dose of bupronorphine depends upon the dose of opioid. If dose of bupronorphine is less, you would get withdrawal. If you are taking 60mg of oral morphine, then take injection bupronorphine 0.3mg. This way calculate the dose of bupronorphine. You can take some effective painkiller like tramadol etc . You can also take help of your doctor to calculate the dose you need.

Thanks
