A member asked:
Gastroperisis caused by prescription narcotics..working my way off of them as fast as possible. will it go away after getting them out of my system?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Direct effect: Gastroparesis is a direct effect of opiates. That why diarrhea and vomiting are seen during withdrawal. If you are completely off of narcotics, normal bowel function should return within 3 to 7 days depending on which opiate your detoxing from. If normal function does not return, something is causing the problem.
