Rest and emotional support

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.

I read your query and understand your concerns.

During the meth withdrawal period the following important things should be observed.
1. Compete rest from sternous activities
2. Plenty of water intake
3. Engagement in mild physical activity as far as possible
4. Stress management
5. Emotional support


Unfortunately we have only symptomatic treatment options available and no antidote to it is available.

I hope this helps you.
Feel free to write back to me if you have more questions.
Thanks and regards.
