Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a question I have been taking Xanax for 15 years 1 mg a day never abused it also just started taking heroin about 3 months now trying to get off but what would be the signs if you were overdosing ? and what would be the signs also what kind of physical damage it do to your body
If you notice that you are not feeling well on the days you don't take heroin, it is a sign that your body has become addicted to heroin. Body aches, diarrhea, running nose and dilated pupils are common in withdrawal. In overdose, common symptoms are pin-point pupils, slow breathing, altered sensorium, dry mouth.
Best wishes.
