no, you cant...1 of 2 things can happen depending on which med you have in your system first, sub first, it will block the percocets ,percocets first and if you dont wait for withdrawals to start and you take sub, you CAN be put into precipitated withdrawals, and you dont want that...do you have a prescription for sub and your looking to get off percocets?
what are you looking to do?

make sure you sue sub in a fast taper to get you through it. Most detox are now doing 10-15 or 21 day detoxs with sub. I went back on perc then c/t because it was easier then the sub for me. Its half life is VERY long...just research alot ok.

no suboxone will block it. You have to be full blown w/d before you can take the sub...careful its w/d can be far far worse then perc. been there done that
