I doubt it terminates the trip so to speak but I would be willing to bet that the Endorphine release was enough to place one in a pleasent atmosphere without worrys as the trip went on. I also due to personal experience expect it to act sort of like a motion sickness aid so that instead of the hallucinations getting to out of control they take on a much more gental and pleasing form"
I agree completely. Opiates are powerful enough to "moderate" a trip down to manageable levels, with their physical and mental euphoric effects. Buprenorphine, when taken be the "opiate naive" effecively has a potency equal to that of a strong opiate, e.g 1mg bupe roughly equates to 10mg of methadone, which equates to about 30-40mgs of morphine, although it has a much longer "half life" due to its action.
One other thing is due to its partial agonist/antagonist properties, its actually safer to use than most opiates, as it doesnt cause anywhere near the same level of respitory depression, that said, its not to be used without informed and careful consideration of all the facts which are involved, like all drugs taken, and preexisting medical conditions, such as asthma
Bezos, valium first, and xanax next, are the 'best' drugs to reduce the anxiety associated with tripping, and which can be the trigger which starts a 'bad trip' often with the thought that "I'm never going to come down...aaarrgh!"...opiates at this point will halve this, and possibly make it manageable, benzo's to a lesser degree, but its VERY dose related. SO bee careful, when giving drugs to compensate other drugs, always start low and titrate up CAREFULLY. If your tripping, and having to administer Valium or such, to someone, try and note the time, or write it down, hey make it a fun challenge
As for taking buprenorphine prophylatically (before) the trip, could make for a more relaxed trip, Taking 10-15mg of valium before a trip, can really smooth out some of the stronger rushes, which can be a bit scary for a novitiate,
but IF a 'rescue' drug is needed, and you ALREADY have it in your system, taking more, may not work. Especially if its a fairly highdose of opiates, sure you could add some valium to the mix, if needed,
BUT,, if things have got to the point rescue drugs are needed, you probably failed to heed a number of the time honored rituals and traditions associated with tripping
which, especially for the acid naive, or those going for a high dose, with expected +3 of higher effects. . . . .surroundings of all sorts, especially the surrounding people
are VERY important, when avoiding negative situations whilst tripping.
Personally I wouldnt take bupe before a trip, although,i might take it after I've peaked and are 70% of the way down, then it would probably morph into this really mellow state that would last the next 18 hrs or so.
REMEMBER: If you dont take opiates on a regular (weekly, or more often) basis, then 4mg of bupe is a hefty dose to a 35yo 70kg male, who IS familiar with dabbling in bupe once every few weeks, but could be called, effectively, "opiate naive" as he has only taken this dose 4-5 times in the past few months, and no other opiates whatsoever, however he has taken opiates in years gone by.
Peace love and happy trips

Btw, imo, To take a high dose of a drug, which counteracts the drug you take next, is counterproductive
, I'd love to know why you would want to? Except maybe when ones binging on coke, and needs some vodka or beer with vodka, to moderate ones dry mouth
