A Good way to get off of Xanax Bars is to Slowly decrease the amount that you take every 2 weeks so you wont suffer from any withdrawals.
I was taking 1mg, Four times a day for 5 Years = 4mg per day
Here is the method that worked for me:
1mg, Three times a day for 2 weeks = 3mg per day
1mg, Two times a day for 2 weeks = 2mg per day
0.5mg, Three times a day for 2 weeks = 1.5mg per day
0.5mg, Two times a day for 2 weeks = 1mg per day
NOTE: At this point, I used 0.5mg Xanax Tablets so I could break them in half to make 0.25mg pieces.
0.25mg, Three times a day for 2 weeks = 0.75mg per day
0.25mg, Two times a day for 2 weeks = 0.5mg per day
0.25mg, Once per day for 2 or 3 weeks = 0.25mg per day
At this point, I was able to stop without having any withdrawals.
Good Luck !!
I would encourage you to wean off slowly, especially with the xanax because depending on the length of time you have used it and the amount used, quitting the xanax cold turkey can cause severe withdrawel and seizures. You can stop the hydrocodone ( lortab ) cold turkey but to minimize discomfort and increase your chances of success I would recommend tapering off slowly. In other words just take a little less everyday until you are completley free of the medication. Ofcourse the best idea would be to be upfront with your doctor and see if he woukd be willing to wean you off.
Pure hydrocodone is a Schedule 2 medication. However, in the US at least, pur hydrocodone is almost never prescribed. Instead, hydrocodone is mixed with acetaminophen or other NSAIDS and, when it's prepared this way, it falls under Schedule 3.
they will be put in a special cell so they can be monitered till the drugs effects are done
percocet, xanax, oxycontin,methadone,hydrocodone,morphine,roxys.all i can think of @ tha moment
The difference between Hydrocodone and Xanax is Hydrocodone is an opioid pain killer.Xanax is a class of drug called a benzodiazapine prescribed for anxiety or panic attacks.Other drugs in this class are Valium,klonopin,and Librium. ===ANOTHER ANSWER=== FIRST ANSWER IS correct. HYDROCODONE is a narcotic analgesic (painkiller) commonly known as Vicodin (hydrocodone + Tylenol), or Lortab, or Lorcet. It has the potential to be abused or addictive. XANAX is an anti-anxiety, that also has the potential to becoming addictive, but much less than others in its class like Valium (diazepam) or Klonopin (clonazepam). Also, never abruptly stop taking any of these three.
That is Loratadine. It is the same thing as Claritin. General dosage for it is 10mg.
No... Never mix xanax with an opiate. Many people have overdosed on this combination.
YES, it can be safe to take tramadol, Xanax (alprazolam), and hydrocodone at one time as long as they are used under medical supervision. You have to be very carefully taking benzodiazepines (Xanax, Valium, Ativan etc.) with opioids (hydrocodone, oxycodone, morphine etc.). Benzodiazepines and opioids are commonly used together for legitamite reasons however abuse of multiple drugs increases risk of serious, even life threatening side effects. Large numbers of deaths due to an overdose are attributed to polysubstance abuse, particularly opioids and benzodiazepines. When the drugs are prescribed and used appropriately they are typically safe.
Any narcotic with a pure opiate base will show up on a drug screen. So, yes, it will be positive for opiates. Xanax is not a narcotic. However, it will show positive for benzodiazepines (Same family as valium.)
Very dangerous! You are risking respiratory failure!!! Cymbalta is the only safe drug in the mix!!!!!
No. Hydrocodone will test as an opiate. When drug testing they have to specifially test you for Methadone. Methadone shows up as Methadone. Like codiene, vicodin, lortab are opiates. Valuim, Xanax, Ativan are benzo's. butabutal (fiorcet) is a barbituate. Methadone is Methadone.
Not a good idea. It worked at first then had to revive my friend when he stopped breathing. Was it all from mixing the drugs, "I don't Know". Just stick to the order of the doc.
yes they can be. you should be wary if you have a breathing impairment and i would not exceed 1.5mg of xanax with 7.5 mg hydrocodone. they can be addictive and both are CNS depressants. you should also never mix hydrocodone with Tylenol. i have been given 2 -4 mg's of ativan plus dilaudid before by a doctor. also 10 mg's of Valium plus dilaudid before. just don't go over your prescribed doses or take it more frequently. also, talk to your doctor about these things, the internet in never reliable. i am only relaying my own personal experience.
