Off the Oxycotin...But..

Hi Nightwalker,

And welcome! Your doctor is asking way too much of you...in my opinion. That's a pretty harsh cutback. I don't know of any home remedies but you might try OTC pain relievers like Tylenol or Aleve.

I would go a lot slower tapering down if it was me. I you have enough pills to do that you may want to try. If it's really bad there is a medication your doctor can give you called Suboxone. It helps with the withdrawal symptoms.

Hope this helps,
CHutzie
