Vicodin ES withdrawal?
by JM, Dec 22, 2000 12:00AM
I have been on Vicodin ES for about a month for pain, generally taking 4 a day, taking 5 infrequently. I have gone two and three days without the drug, but I have been taking it more or less constantly for, like I said, about a month. I am concerned that I have gotten addicted. It has been 26 hours since my last injestion. I slept fitfully last night and had diarrhoea, but aside from having a low fever and being understandably exhausted, I don't feel too terrible today. T
Should I expect to feel further withdrawal symptoms? Generally, when will I know that this is withdrawal? What should I expect to happen? How long will it last? Is there anything I can do in the way of over-the-counter medication to treat this symptomatically?
any advice would be greatly appreciated.
thank you.
