TEMGESIC or BUPRENORPHINE ?
Today my sleep specialist swapped me over to
Temgesic
(.2mg) assuring me it would last all night.He told me
Temgesic
is identical to Buprenorphine. Some members on this forum say that it only has a half life of 4-6 hours!( similar to Targin for me) .

bup tablets v temgesic
I definitely feel different on the
Temgesic
- I seem to have more of a ‘hangover’ in the morning and feel very low - I wondered what the difference is re
Temgesic
which is also buprenorohine but I think is maybe more fast acting with a shorter half life. Has anyone got any information on this?

Temgesic Supply Problems
So is anyone else experiencing problems getting
Temgesic
from their pharmacy? I don't think there is an equivalent in the UK as most other options are too strong. I really hope this is not a permanent problem.

Buprenorphine/ Temgesic
My chemist is telling me they cannot dispense Buprenorphine nor
Temgesic
as there is a manufacturing problem. I have to ask my GP to prescribe something else. Does anyone else have a similar problem ?

Blue/black fingernails
I have really poor circulation in my hands and cannot get them warm when they get cold but on reflection I believe the colour change may have started after commencing
Temgesic
- 200m - 250mcg (One and a quarter tablets). Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

Bup patch to tablets
Hi all, looking for some advice on how best to swap from weekly 10mg patch to
temgesic
tablets. My main query is do I just stop the patch and move to nightly dose? Will I suffer mini withdrawals not having any medication in my system all day? Have been on the patch for 12 mths.

Update on...Buprenorphine seems to be failing! Help!
He was definitely not going to try
Temgesic
as he knew it was practically impossible to get approved in Tasmania as Shumbah indicated.

Finding the right buprenorphine
Anyway
Temgesic
do their measurements in micrograms. So I am taking one sublingual 200mcg (equivalent to 0.2mg strength) a night. I am finding this (dissolves under the tongue like your Accord tablets) easy to use, so thanks, yet again, for your help.

Temgesic/Buprenorphine
Temgesic
is NOT licensed in the UK for RLS, nor is Buprenorphine so there should be no reason for doctors to prescribe
Temgesic
over Buprenorphine. I attach relevant articles which might help you persuade your doctors to prescribe plain Buprenorphine over
Temgesic
.

tortuous world of pain
The restless legs and nerve damage happened in 2022, I have been living with nightmare since then, only got given
temgesic
in March 2023 and that was for post op pain not restless legs or nerve pain. The pain specialists, neurologists would not listen to me.

Appointment at Neuropsychiatry Clinic
Temgesic
? The other issue is - what if my GP says that she is still unable to prescribe it under current guidelines - Will I have wasted the appointment? I look forward to receiving your comments.

Temgesic/Buprenorphine
However, although I stuck it out for a few months this was not a success and I am back on
Temgesic
.
Temgesic
dose lasts 6 - 8 hours at most whereas buprenorphine lasts approx. 23 - 25 hours.
