I thought tyelonol was what is in vicodine...just a much higher dose...advil my safeest bet??sparetire said:brother, tylenol isn't an opiate, as I'm sure you fully well know, but taking it isn't going to break your cleanliness over the past 5 days. Take one of those night time tylenol pms or something to help you sleep a little better - maybe toss in some melatonin. It takes about 11 days for your body to rid itself of hydro. Just hang in there and the sleep will return, just take whatever you need for the pain - tylenol, asperin, alieve, advil, etc. it won't effect your sobriety.
and to the other 2 who hijacked this thread, please, take it into the appropriate forum. We realize you want to make your point about God and darwinism/atheistic views, but this thread is about addiction so please respect us.

so jsut to be absolutely certain I am clear as a setback would kill me right now.....tyelonol and advil are perfectly fine.....at 800mg....correct?bas4lizzife said:dont worry about using the otc meds. Its the actual opiods that act on the CNS that have caused dependence. Staying off these is what will clean out those receptors and end withdrawal. tylenol is in many prescription narcotics, but it is the non-narcotic portion. it's the hydrocodone that causes physical dependency

bmcadoo44 said:for some strange reason. I know many roid heads that are addicted to lorcet and other pain killers, but i just dont know why. I myself was an addict and i know of an old friend that use to be huge and supplied most of my ppl roids but he is now small and shrunkin up do to being an addict.
JKurz1 said:When does the wd pain stop? It's been a week. Numbness, stomach issues, lack of
sleep are still hardcore. Seriously, what can I take? It's been a week since I touched
anything for fear of my body resorting back to its old state of dependency.
Is advil or tyelonl safe?
No, I am not gonna need profesional help and I appreciate the insight. Not only have I been cold turkey for 1 week today, but I have had no pain relievers at all for fear of ruining my wd. So thanks for the insight. Only problem I feel now is stomach bloating and chills. The lack of sleep sucks, and I will invest in some tylenol pm....thanks again.sparetire said:I told ya bro, it takes about 11 days, maybe longer depending how long you've been on. Even though you claim only 1-2 a day for a year, your body is physically addicted to the pain meds and it needs to start working without the dependancy of them. Tylenol isn't addicted and yes it's in vicodin, but it's not making you or will make you addicted, it's the hydro that's in it.
Take 2 tylenols for the pain and take a few imodiums for the diarrhea. Immodium is a cousin of an opiate, but it doesn't cross the blood brain barrier, meaning you can't get addicted to it, but your body reacts in a way that it won't wd as hard due to the immodium settling the stomach down. Trust me on this one. Just follow the directions on the immodium ad and it should help you with your diarrhea, but some addicts withdrawing from opiates will take up to 8 immodiums to keep the stomach in check, everyone is different.
There are ways of wds without professional help, and if you can do it, that's awesome, but most will seek professional help and will need drugs like "suboxone" which is an opiate but without the euphoric feelings..and then they taper you off with that.
If you do it on your own, you gotta do it with some over the counter meds like tylenol, immodium and night time cough meds to help you sleep and help you with the pain.
There is another natural herb that a lot of addicts are using to withdraw with great succes. It's called "Kratom". You mix it up like a tea and drink it and I think it's like an opiate in a way that it tricks your body like if your high on real opiates and it even gives you a high feeling. I haven't tried it personally, but if anyone here has, now's the time to chime up bro. If you need anything feel free to pm me.
JKurz1 said:this wasnt where I wanted this thread to go.......I wanted to know the effects of these painkillers on bodybuilders if not abused.....meaning 1 vicodine a day MAYBE, or just a half....does it mess with digestion? Muscle gain? Etc........effects? 10-15 a day is absurd..
I would not ever ever toch them again I took them for years and quit 27days figured "im all good" took 2 cause i was really sore and after5 hours i was already starting to feel withdrawals and was all hooked again its like an alchoholic.. if he is sober for 2 weeks can he go celebrate his sobriety by going and having 1 beer with his friends.............Fuck No!! Stay away for your own good or give yourself at least 6 months thats how long it takes for most peoples body to start to produce dopamine again (your body stops making it when you start taking pills) that is why when you quit them you feel even more sore than before you started. give your body time to fix itself take aleve i believe it is the strongest otc medicine. it was prescription 5-6 yeatrs ago!!JKurz1 said:Question...clean for 10 days and think the effects are gone....did it solo....now here is my ? can I never have them again for severe pain? Or now that I am detoxed, Can I use them when necessary maybe 1 or 2 a WEEK or no?

JKurz1 said:I know I am not addicted.....maybe at one time, but not now.....I went clean for two weeks and had some major pains in my lower back from heavy deads Friday. I had 3/4th of a tab two nights ago. Did nothing for me that Advil won't do and I truly have no desire to touch them again. It just turned my stomach. I guess that's the difference, although I was only taking a MAXIMUM of ONE a day for a while, they were always 1/2 in the am and maybe 1/2 in the pm.....those taking upwards of 5,10,15 etc. must suffer the worst. I have no desire to use them...I'll stick to Advil and tylenol when I need it........
