2	Ginny Says: Report Abuse Wednesday, 7/15/2009 5:31:46 PM Please go to the discussion on Oxycontin, which is Percocet in a slow release form, and read my full account of detoxing at home off high doses of this medication, the physical and mental issues to expect while withdrawing and some tips to help you get through the withdrawl. You can do it. You will know you've found the right discussion if you see my name and postings at the start of the discussion which I began a year ago. I am now Oxycontin free and did it at home.
3	Verwon Says: [Moderator] Thursday, 7/16/2009 8:12:22 PM Percocet and Oxycontin are not the exact same thing, because Percocet contains Acetaminophen and Oxycodone, while Oxycontin just contains a time release formulation of Oxycodone, by itself. The Oxycodone, however is a highly addictive and commonly abused narcotic. The length of time the withdrawals last can vary, depending on how much you have been taking and for how long. It could range from several weeks, to well over a month or more. Some withdrawal effects you may experience can include: nausea, drowsiness, chills, fever, diarrhea, irritability and vomiting. If you have been on very high doses, you should not try to withdrawal on your own, as it does have the potential to be fatal, you should consult a doctor. If you think you may need treatment to get off the Oxycodone, many people have found that the medication Suboxone minimizes withdrawals, while eventually enabling them to become completely drug free. You can check the website at Suboxone.com Click Here to see if there is a doctor near you that can provide treatment with this medication. You can read more about this medication here: http://www.prescriptiondrug-info.com/drug_details.asp?title=Suboxone&page=1003573&ad=true Is there anything else I can help you with?

8	Her Mom Says: Report Abuse Tuesday, 1/26/2010 9:29:10 AM My daughter has been shooting up percocet 30's, about 20+ times a day. I am looking for long term problems or any information and advice I can get. We are trying to get her in re-hab but the wait list is so long that someone trying to get off can be dead before they get any help. I know nothing about this and would appreciate any help.
