Was Taking Oxy,roxy,lortabs For Back Pain. Also Take Wellbutrin. Advised Clonazepam. Side Effects With Withdrawal?

i have a few questions. i have had some back pain and took oxy, roxy and lortabs off and on for about a year. only take 2 max a day. i am afraid of withdrawls as when i research that is what i see. i have been off for weeks and never felt anything so not sure what will happen when i stop. i ordered withdrawl ease as it was recommended. i also take wellbutrin and this says will help with the emotionaly side. i was also told i could take lortab to tapper off after done with the roxi. lastly was told can take clonzepam which i am prescribed only as needed. there is so much info but just want to make sure i do the right thing so incase i have any withdrawls it should go smooth. very appreciated.

Hi,

If you are not taking more than two tablets per day, you need not worry. I expect you to have only mild withdrawal symptoms. Just reduce to one tablet per day for around ten days, before stopping completely. Use over the counter analgesics if you have pain. Take lots of water. Do not take anything else for watering from eyes and nose, sneezing, nausea, diarrhea etc. Use clonazepam only if you have excessive anxiety or sleep difficulty. You can take "withdrawal ease" if you wish.

There is no need to be afraid of withdrawal. You will be fine in a week or so. Hope this helps you. Best wishes.
