A member asked:
Can you tell me is there an over-the-counter medicine that will help make opiate withdrawals a little easier to go through?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Withdrawal: A good question: anyone that doesn't have major allergies and is going through this should take some pain reliever that is not an opiate , motrin, naprosyn (naproxen) etc.. Take as directed not just once a day. For stomach cramps you might try chamomile tea. There are number of products to control diarrhea -ask the pharmacist. A lot of warm baths ; rest. Some intensive distraction video etc. Good luck.
