Best Answer

If you have decreased cortisol from long term opiode use, your adrenal gland has been affected and prednisone will help. You definitely need to do this under a Dr.s care since the combination of withdrawal symptoms and prednisone could cause a seizure if your adrenal gland is already functioning normally. Most Dr.s seem to just want you to suffer through it so you will learn your lesson,so it may not be an option. The only way to avoid severe withdrawal is a gradual tapering down. Most people cannot do this on their own. You need to get smaller and smaller prescriptions to be successful. Even then it is hard to avoid when you feel like crap and the pills are available. Go through it enough times and you will learn. Hopefully. Good luck.

Although cocaine is extremely psychologically addictive, as well as chemically addictive, it is not physically addictive. There are no physical withdrawal symptoms, like there are with alcohol or opiates.


Is suboxone a good thing to use temporary to relieve withdrawal symptoms from opiates such as vicodin and percocet?

Yes, Suboxone (buprenorphine) has been successfully used as a detoxification protocol to wean patients from opiate usage while minimizing withdrawal symptoms. Its molecules have a similar affinity for the same receptors as opiates but cause a less strong addictive potential, thus blocking the opiates and down-regulating the receptors for withdrawal. It may be used alone, or in combination with benzodiazepines (as Ativan, Xanax) or clonidine.


How long after you use Oxycontin can you take suboxone?

It really depends on the individual. If you do not have a physical addiction yet to opiates and do not experience withdrawal symptoms from opiates, then it really doesn't matter. Nothing will happen because your body doesn't need the opiates that have filled your receptors (and will be kicked off those receptors by suboxone) in order to maintain normal function. You'll simply not be high at the very worst. If you are physically dependant on opiates and experience withdrawal symptoms from stopping use or from the lack of access to opiates, then you should wait until full withdrawal symptoms manifest. In some people this can be up to 24 hours or longer. Again, it is based on the individual. Taking suboxone prior to entering full withdrawal symptoms will cause Precipitated Withdrawal Syndrome and you will not only go immediately into withdrawal, it will be worse than normal withdrawals because of the sudden onset as opposed to the gradual onset. Plus you won't be able to use either opiates (unless an extreme amount is used which raises overdose and other problems) or suboxone to relieve the withdrawals for between 12 and 24 hours.

How can you go through heroin withdrawal without the use of Suboxone and methadone but maybe the use of Klonopin or Xanax?

Klonopin and Xanax are not opiates, so, they will do nothing to alleviate the symptoms of heroin withdrawal. Only another opiate can alleviate the symptoms of heroin withdrawal.
