Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. It would be definitely advisable to get off hydrocodone since it may lead to addiction very quickly especially if high dosages are prescribed. This is neurological issue so some neurotropic medications may be more adequate such as Requip and these can be taken as a long term therapy. However, hidrocodone withdrawal should be slow and planned in consultation with neurologist. If you cant do it then hidrocodone should be taken in small dosages and Requio should be added into therapy. Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. Wishing you good health.
