What Causes Vomiting And GERD After Quitting Heroin?

Hi doctor, My boyfriend has been taking brown sugar for almost 6months. When he tries to leave, he suffers from vomiting and stomach burn. Is it because of post syndrome? I tried everything on him but nothing works instead he takes it behind my back. I hope you can help us. Is there any home remedies that can help?or anything?

Hi,

He may be suffering from withdrawal symptoms after each episode after stopping of the drug.

Detox is only the first step toward recovery. Heroin addiction can be treated successfully in a drug addiction treatment program.

It is done in a slow manner. During withdrawal period usage of Methadone or Buprenorphine or Naloxone or Naltrexone usage is important.

So you have to consult your psychiatrist or rehabilitation centre, they will withdraw slowly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
