I can write up a taper if you are only taking them at bedtime. But I need to know that. Also if you are only taking them at bedtime at what point in the day do you begin to sense discomfort from detoxing? I say this because I cut myself down once from about 150mg a day to just a 5 mg at night. I continued the 5mg at night for about a month until my body adjusted, then I cut the five in half for about two weeks, then, fearful I just quit; I had restless leg for about a week after that. So if you want and just off the cuff and if you have the pills I would say stay where you at for a week, then cut 1 pill in half and take that with the others for a week, on down the road; this would take you about 3 months.
Or like I said with more info can write up a slighty quicker taper.
good luck.
Right now, unless I absolutely can not stand the pain during the day, I am taking 5-6 pills nightly. Sometimes (rarely) I will take 2 or 3 at some point during the early part of the day. If I do not take the dose in the morning / early afternoon, I begin feeling the chills/sweats around 6 or 7 in the evening (my bed time dose is taken about 11 PM). Sometimes I will have nausea in the day time (late afternoon) if I do not take the in between dose.
Thank you so much for your help!
What is a good, workable taper, if a person is taking 4-5 10mg Lortabs per day? I'd imagine the withdrawls would be worse if the taper was extreme and less to none if the taper were very gradual?
If you have the time, could you give me an example taper program that will not make the withdrawls noticable because I have a government job and I don't want to be noticed with bloodshot eyes and feeling and looking sick.
I currently like to take 4-5 10mg Lortabs per day. I've only had 1/2 the last couple days and feel very slugish and I don't want to be around people or hear anything they have to say. I have a new bottle of 120 and another bottle of 120 on the way in a few more days, so I will have more than pleanty to divide up into a workable taper to GET ME OFF THESE THINGS.
Thanks, TB
