If you are talking about withdrawal symptoms from a narcotic drug (oxycontin, MS contin, oxynorm, endone, etc) then symptoms will last 4 or 5 days. They will include shivers, sweats, headaches, diarrhoea, shakes, jitters and generally just not being able to function. I was on high doses of oxynorm (an immediate acting narcotic tablet for debilitating osteoarthritis) and I have had two episodes of withdrawals...it occurs if I take high doseages, and then go off them suddenly. You do feel awful, but it will get better. Now I tend to take my pain relief every couple of days, if I can, with sometimes a four day period of no pain relief. I don't take them regularly anymore, and this tends to reduce the withdrawal symptoms.

Coming off of methadone is the most god awful experience i have ever been through. I have given birth twice and I would much rather experience the pains of labor than ever come off of methadone cold turkey again. The physical withdrawals are severe and last for at least 45 days. Pain, sweating, sneezing, and general exhaustion were the worst. A lot of people experience severe diarrhea and vomiting occur during the first couple weeks. Withdrawal symptoms begin about 3 days after your last dose of methadone and last for at least 6 weeks. I would not recommend going off of methadone cold turkey. A Dr. should wean you down on the methadone and then switch you to suboxone to get off of the methadone. Then you will have to wean off the suboxone. I hear there are withdrawals with coming off that too.
