friend needs help quitting snorting pills

my friend has been snorting hydrocodone pills 4 several years now.. she can deal with the withdrawl (withdrawal) sickness of coming off them but the lining in her nose and her sinus cavity is gone and her nose hurts really bad unless she has powder in her nose she says it help coat it and it quits hurting and running and her throat get soar when she dont have the powder in her nose...will ever stop hurting her is there anything she can do i am really worried about her

I hope this doesn't sound rude, but to me, she is just using that as an excuse and us addicts are good at that in active use. Although I did not snort pills, i snorted a lot of coke and there were times my nose was so sore that it hurt to talk. Nosebleeds and waking up every morning feeling like someone punched me in the face till i got a line in me. Her nose will be sore for awhile, but most times the lining will heal and that pain will go away, but it took over a month for the scabs to heal and the pain to go away. What she needs to do is quit and get some help. Sniffing pills is not a way to live and the damage that comes. The nose will be the least of her worries, if she don't stop. There are others here that snorted pills, so you can get some advice from their experience. You sound like a good friend, I hope she does the right thing. Good luck

A petroleum based antibiotic application will help her nose to heal ........ and not die, as she is slowly killing it with her current approach......saline rinses are also good for the nose to begin healing. Healing will not begin as long as she continues to medicate with powders that are not designed to be inhaled.

itink she should snort nothing including tylone. It is not only the drugs we fet addicted to but also the route inwhich we ingest. snorting ANYTHING at this time is prob gona be a big trigger for friend

ok, i have the same problem. I used to be into hard stuff years ago and used subs to get clean. and i was clean for about 6 years, then in college last April i started into vikes and perks again. Iv been doing around 10-20 a day for over a year strait. I really want to stop, iv cut back to just a few a day but at night i wake up w severe throat pain and the only thing that helps is more powder. So if there is anything that can help the hroat pain, the gettn clean is easy. please help!
