Tapering off Oxycontin
I am currentyly taking 10mg of oxycontin, 3 times a day (every 8 hours). If I miss a dose it triggers a migraine rebound headache. How can I taper off of oxycontin without triggering migraines, and without suffering the side effects of insomnia and anxiety ?
there is no way to get off meds without wd ... I agree with ga ask for a non narcotic med to deal with your migraines there are many these days honestly lots of doctors say opiates do not reliefs migraine headaches
Are you sure it's a migraine? I have migraines and thought withdrawals triggered them, too. But, it was actually tension headaches. You may want to get a script for something like Imitrex and try it. I will tell you that for most people, the headaches go away in a month or so. So, try and just tough it out.
