Depends: Depends on what you consider side effects? The effects from the drug will dissipate in a day or so, however, the damage done to your brain may last a life time.
Wish you good health! - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex, if you have sex.

Accepted Answer

Death, addiction...: Both methamphetamines and oxycodone are highly addictive drugs of abuse. The "snorting" achieves more rapid absorption compared to the oral route increasing the possibility of overdose and death. Abuse of these drugs usually leads to rapid development of addiction. If you are currently using them i encourage you to seek treatment as your problem will in all likelihood  only become much worse...

It depends: Side effects can differ significantly from one person to another.  Indeed some people can even become sedated when they use a stimulant.   Rapid heart rate and increased bp common and even serious heart arrhythmias can occur.  I doubt your insurance could be dropped based on meth abuse particularly now with obamacare.

Question 10

is there anything that will help the side affects of comeing off of meth?

Accepted Answer

Hard, but possible: A rehab or clinic is easier. But they say you can do it alone. Drink lots of water, high energy drinks, good diet + all the protein you can, stay very active in body and mentally involving distractions. Don't stew over anything. Don't give in to the depression - it will improve - usually in four days or a bit more. After a week it will be much less terrible. Still, the urges may come. Get busy!
