You must be joking: There ARE no "home remedies" & I'm sure you already know that. Why did you start using in the first place? Why didn't you just try a "home remedy" INSTEAD of heroin? There's no "home remedy" substitute for heroin & there's no "home remedy" for heroin withdrawal. Maybe withdrawal would discourage you from using again. If not, seek professional help. Go to a nearby ER.
