Thank you for contacting HCM with your health care concerns

You have been on oxycodone for a while and you are now weaning from it. The weaning is going to cause you to feel tired severe aching and muscle pain with goose flesh and abdominal pain cramping and diarrhea. To help with the symptoms I recommend using advil or aleve for the muscle pain, benadryl to help with the aching and jitters and imodium for the diarrhea. Te withdrawal may take several days to a week to get over. If things get bad then you may need to see your medical provider for additional help with the withdrawal symptoms
