Percocet withdrawl

Hello Ive been taking 20 percocet a day now for 16days. I started taking them because of a herniated disk! I am not going to take anymore! How long will my withdrawls last? Also I take Xanax and Valium for really bad anxiety, will the xanax and valium help witht the withdrawl symptoms???

Careful with the xanax, yes it does help with withdrawals, but taking more of that can lead to the same thing as the perc w/ds....only take if absolutely necessary

16 days insn't very long but 20 a day is a large amount.  Is that the number you were perscribed by the doc?  Do you ever take more then perscribed of the xanax and valium?  Good luck I hope all goes well, if you haven't had a problem in the past, be careful and don't end up like so many of us!!

you should have very minor wds if any for 16 days...maybe a little tired feeling.

w/d's last bout 5 to 7 days. You can take valium but only at night to help you sleep and only for about 4 day or you will be back in the same boat you are trying to get out of.
How many are you taking? 16 days not very long you should w/d quicker
