Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
im a 25yr old female with a current addiction to oxycodone.Estimating my daily dose would be 100 milligrams and/or lower. my question is if i suddenly stop the medicine what withdrawls can i expect and how long until im back to normal. im also 4weeks pregnant, will stopping oxycontin be harmful to the embryo???
I will suggest you to with draw slowly the dose of opioid as it has serious health effects on pregnancy. You can get help from addiction centers in this regard. You can't stop suddenly. Stopping oxycodone is not harmful rather beneficial for embryo.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
