Taper schedule: Right now you are taking about enough narcotic to equal 80 mg of morphine. You should see your family practice physician to work though withdrawals especially if you have taken the medicine for 4 years. One way of tapering is a reduction of daily dose by 25% each week.

Slow wean: Do not rush opioid withdrawal can be very harmful. A one month wean better. Try reducing by two pills a day for a week at a time. From 8 per day for a week, six a day for a week, to 4 a day for a week, then 2, and finally none.
