You are really just replacing one opiate with another but if you have the will power and slowly do the taper then you should be able to do it. Good luck!

You could probobly use any hydrocodone medication to taper frm the Oxy's... Anything that has an opiate in will help with the withdrawls.

Good luck!!!
