About to wean myself off dihydrocodeine - any advice?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Go slowly: Withdrawal symptoms from an opiate can be severe. To minimize the discomfort, decrease the medication slowly. If you have withdrawal symptoms, stay on the current dose until they abate then continue decreasing the medication until your off.
