Any advice on Oxycodone withdrawal?

Has anybody who is currently reading this ever conquered opiate withdrawal?
Answer:
you'll need to have a doctor advise you on how to slowly taper off of this drug. I do have suggestions that will help make the withdrawal be easier for you. Here is what I suggest to get you over the worst part of the withdrawals. To help with the withdrawals take hot bathes with 2c. of dissolved Epsom salts and soak for 30 minutes. The skin is the biggest organ of elimination and this will help pull out the drugs. Use a loofa to clean the pores and this will help pull the drugs out even faster. Drink lots of water and 2c. a day of fresh carrot juice, to flush the medicine out of your liver. You can take 500mg of calcium and magnesium twice a day to help you relax. Drink chamomile tea throughout the day and evening to help you stay relaxed. Use a powdered fiber supplement twice daily to pull the drugs out of your intestines where they can store. Two of the questionnaires in this forum did follow this program to withdraw from drugs and it did help. I've enclosed a link where you can read their response to this program. If you have any further questions please let me know,

Been there. It's possible. Tapering slowly is important. The withdrawal won't be that bad if you're on a low dose. But if you've been on a high dose, or taking it more than recommended, you'll probably have symptoms.A doctor can help you through this. Clonidine is a blood pressure medication that will dramatically improve withdrawal symptoms. You might also want to ask for a muscle relaxant like flexeril to help with the spasms.
I have not withdrawn my self but have seen it- if you are taking oxy for any length of time you have to taper it off slowly. You will feel sick like having a flue, talk to your doctor about it and dont do it alone.
withdrawal symptoms are dangerous and potentially fatal -never attempt this without being under the care of your physician.
it can be very difficult. you dont realise the extent of the addiction until you give it away. stop completly, do not slow the intake as if you are weaning yourself off. it does not work. i sucked on strong mints for two weeks. each time i took a breath with the mints it relieved my cravings. but then we are all different. give it a try and/or consult your doctor
