How long does it take to detox from Hydrocone?

[weaver9670]

I am on day 12 and still have burning skin and terrible irritably, is there anything I can take or do to help?

[Julia M Aharonov, DO]

It takes a long time to withdraw cold turkey from hydrocodone. I commend your courage and tenacity in sticking with it. Every day should get better and better from now on. Is it possible for you to get a prescription for Neurontin? It would be very helpful with the burning skin and even the irritability. It will make you a bit tired, but that is probably OK at this point.  On your own you can try some tincture of Valerian, but it will certainly not be as effective. It will help you sleep though and will give you some relaxation. Magnesium will also be helpful for muscle relaxation.
Good luck to you and please, do not give up!

See if you can get a script of Neurontin, it is non addictive and really helped me with my WDs. I ak on day 20 and feeling better, I hope the Neurontin helps you. Let me know and good luck.

God Bless
