New drugs for opiate and pain pill withdrawal plus info

Suboxone
here is a site that talks about it and locate a doc to prescribe it to you http://www.suboxone-directory.com/
if you click your state on the right side of the web page you will get a list of doctors in your area that can prescribe it.

I don't know the cost, but at 300-900 a week on pain pills it is probably a worthy alternative.

also appears to be a withdrawal med called subutex
here is what some folks say about it
http://www.suboxone-directory.com/

here is where to find a doc to get subutex to you locally
http://buprenorphine.samhsa.gov/bwns_locator/index.html


if none of these are feasable always always always goto the www.remedyfind.com webpage and see what others are saying about different methods.

Open remedyfind webpage
look to upper left corner and click "Health Conditions/ concerns"
that will open a large and freaking useful list of heath issues.
Look for the "Drug Dependancy/Withdrawal" section and click "opioids/ narcotics"
That will take you to the top rated remedies, click on any of the sections to get a larger list. You can sort the remedies by number of ratings, highest ratings ect.
You can even email others and discuss how things worked or failed for them.


Good luck to all of you and get clean for xmas!

Yeah getting the script is hard as you have to pay a fee usually and the pills themselves are no easy buy either.  But they are SO WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!

I paid $150 dr visit to get the script.  The script was $180 for 30 pills.  But you only need (I think) one week of pills to detox, which is like 10 pills.  So that is like $70.  Walgreens.

You can get a script from a methadone clinic sometimes, too, at a reduced price.  Check your local clinics to see if they dispense suboxone.

I detoxed from suboxone, and it is much more mild than heroin but it is indeed longer lasting and drags on and on.  No fun, indeed.

That is why you should try tapering, or try to only take it in short bursts, as needed, like a week of pills to detox from heroin or morphine.  Then stop.  Do not become addicted by taking a month or more of suboxone.

I was addicted to hydrocodone, and any other kind of pain pills I could get.  It has been 5 months now and I'm over all the withdrawals.  I became very dependent on sleep medication because I couldn't sleep during the withdrawals.  I have really bad anxiety attacks or possibly even panic attacks. Has anyone else experienced this?  I cannot look up at the night sky or have anything to do about outer space, it's making my heart race faster just by typing about it.  Is there an explanation for this, because it feels like I'm going crazy.
