Quick Info

  There is no physical withdrawal from Crack or Cocaine as there is with other drugs such as heroin. The withdrawal symptoms are more of a psychological nature rather than physical including an intense hunger, irritability, fatigue, long but disturbed sleep

  Symptoms of marijuana withdrawal first appear in chronic users within 24 hours. They are most pronounced for the first 10 days and can last up to 28 days.

  Taken orally once a day, methadone suppresses narcotic withdrawal for between 24 and 36 hours.

  If a regular user of Lortab stops taking Lortab, he or she will experience withdrawal symptoms within six to twelve hours but the symptoms are usually not life-threatening.

Codeine Withdrawal

Codeine is an opiate agonist - sedative and analgesic narcotic substance found in opium in concentrations between 0.1% and 2%. Codeine was first isolated from opium by the French chemist Pierre-Jean Robiquet in 1832. Because of the small concentration found in nature, most codeine found in medical products is synthesized from morphine. Being an opiate, codeine has the potential for addiction. It causes tolerance and physical addiction with chronic use. Clearly the properties possessed by codeine have or are fast becoming common knowledge amongst those abusing the drug.

The worst codeine withdrawal symptoms pass within a few days, but it can take months to feel normal.

Codeine Withdrawal symptoms include but are not limited to:

  • runny nose
  • sweating
  • muscle twitching
  • muscle pain
  • headaches
  • irregular heartbeat
  • nausea and vomiting
  • high blood pressure
  • fever
  • insomnia
  • dehydration
  • yawning
  • weakness
  • stomach cramps
