N.A.: Look up Narcotics Anonymous in the phone book or go to www.na.org and go to a meeting tonight. The people there will know the local doctors and rehab centers that will be able to help you.

Addiction: Adddiction can be effectively treated by specialists known as Addiction Medicine Specialists. Usually they are Internal med doctors who have additional training and can Detox you under supervision which is recommended. If you want to do it yourself, reducing the dose by 25% every week would help avoid the withdrawal symptoms. Good luck, you already took the first step !!
