Helping you to overcome heroin addiction through my own experience, strength, and hope.


Getting through Oxycodone Abuse and Percocet Withdrawal

Percocet abuse can lead to  Percocet withdrawal and both are quite common today. Percocet is one of the many popular drugs that contain aspirin and oxycodone, abusers of this drug often refer to them as Oxys.

Similar like drugs that produce the same affect include oxycodone, percodan, tylox, oxycontin, and roxicodone. These drugs are over prescribed quite frequently therefore there is the potential for percocet abuse which often leads to percocet addiction.

All of these drugs are highly addictive. They are intended for the relief of pain but addicts have found that they produce a similar affect to heroin and are easily obtainable.

The question here is are you using them for legitimate pain relief or are you withdrawal from percocet If you use this medication for any length of time you will become addicted to them. When you try to stop using percocet you will have what is know as symptoms of opiate withdrawal.

Now keep in mind that withdrawal can be dealt with at home using subutex prescribed by a physician. It is up too you to make up your mind whether you want to do a percocet detox quickly; for example, lets say two weeks or whether you want to be on suboxone maintenance.

If you think you need more help than this then look into going into Oxycodone treatment. There you can be detoxed from oxycodone medically.

Getting free from oxy withdrawal in opiate rehab

If you have had enough of using and abusing this drug and are tired of being broke and half sick every time you run out then I would suggest that you go to opiate addiction rehab. There you can be detoxed medically and will not have to be very concerned with being sick during withdrawal because you will be given prescription medications to ease the pain.

If you go you will be well taken care of by trained medical staff members who will be there to help you 24/7. They will help walk you through your detox by reassuring you that things are going to be just fine. Some of the staff may be recovering addicts themselves. They will also give you your medication at the appropriate times.

One thing I can not stress enough is after leaving rehab is ongoing meeting attendance. Recovery from drug addiction is a gift from God but we have to work hard to keep stay clean and sober and not return to our former state of active addiction due to a drug relapse.

Good luck
