Loperamide helps (imodium) but then you're dealing with another addiction basically. That's only in large doses, of course. If you don't wanna go that route, which i don't really recommend, try 2 loperamide a day, some ibuprofen then benedryl to sleep. Getting sleep is probably the hardest thing to do during detox. Besides the medication, keep his mind on something. Any exercise at all is VERY good. Helps the body release natural endorphins that the hydrocodone was creating. Don't wanna offend you at all, but sex is also helpful. Main thing in all of this? Once you stop..STOP. Don't let him go back and just take one or two. Even if its for legit pain, the brain doesn't know. His body has become addicted to this drug and stopping cold turkey (if he can handle it) is the best way to go. I wish you the best..this is a hard process. |
