A member asked:

How long does it take withdrawals from stopping oxycodone to go away when you quit cold turkey 5 days now?

Days to weeks: The physical symptoms rarely last longer than a week, but the cravings may last much longer. Consider attending a meeting of narcotics anonymous. If you are at risk for relapse, you might consult an addiction specialist about using buprenorphine (suboxone).

Complicated Answer: This varies widely from person to person depending on many factors: drug dose, duration of use, coexisting medical problems, body size and bmi, other drugs being taken, nutritional state. Please consider speaking with an addiction medical person, a psychiatrist, or your pcp.
