Facts
- Over-the-counter analgesics such as Advil, Ibuprofen, Aspirin, Tylenol and some prescription medications can cause headaches for long periods of time as part of typical withdrawal syndrome after cessation of use.
- Cocaine withdrawal symptoms may last for weeks or months, and some cocaine users continue to feel the need to use the drug for years.
- Withdrawal symptoms can make quitting fentanyl and other opiates almost impossible, especially when one attempts to do so on one's own.
- PCP was first administered as an IV anesthetic during medical procedures, but was never approved for human use because of problems during clinical studies, including intensely negative psychological effects.

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and difficult experience. Symptoms usually begin between twenty-four and forty-eight hours after the user's last dose of methadone. Common symptoms include: stomach cramps, sweating, nausea, tremors, extreme opiate cravings, sneezing, irritability, fever, chills, vomiting, paranoia, fuzzy-headedness, clinical depression and hallucinations. Additionally, these unpleasant methadone withdrawal symptoms tend to continue much longer than heroin withdrawal symptoms. Depending on the dose of methadone you have been taking the symptoms can last for several weeks to several months. Professionals in the field of methadone detoxification typically advise the gradual decrease of the drug over a period of time instead of completely stopping all at once.
