cold turkey

[nighta]

I am trying to go cold turkey from ocs?

Besides the withdrawl symptoms are there any other health risks?

I was taking about 80 mg a day for about 2 months, but about 60 for 8 months before.

I have no pre-existing conditions.
Thank You

Forgot to mention that this is like my 4th time detoxing CT and Nothing bad has happenned to me (health wise, I mean) only bad thing is I keep relapsing.  Anyway good luck.

Im on my 3rd Ct off Oxys approx 120 mg/day for two years, and 6 years of percs prior.  I'm not going to lie but the 1st two days were rough. I've also never heard of any health issues as well.  If your gonna do this get everything you need before hand cause its going to feel like a very bad flu and your not going to want to go anywhere.  Everyones different but what worked for me was really hot baths with epsom salts, gatorade, Advil, immodium, heating pad good multi vitamins, try to eat if you can and use the forum, people here will help you when you ask.  Like struggling said, you can do this!  Look at the dosage he was on and he pushed through.  Give it a try and keep pushing when it gets tough.  Good luck.

I went cold turkey from oxy as well, I was snorting about 300 mg a day and taking other pills as well.  Basically it feels like hell but I have never read anywhere of any having any health issues from the withdrawal.  Just make sure you have a few days to just lay around, drink lots of water, bananas, vitamins, soup, etc.  You can do it if you really want to!
