Fentanal Abuse Withdrawl
UpdatedMy husband has been taking fentanal patches for 2 years. He chews it after cutting it in strips. He usually does 50 mg to 75 mg a day. He took his last piece yesterday. He is laying in bed, contorted. He is shaking and saying crazy stuff. I don't think he even knows where he is. How long will this go on? Is this normal? He took a suboxine and a xanex (I don't know how to spell this stuff). What can I do to help

Hello, Lily257! How is he doing?
When someone is in that type of condition, you should seek medical assistance for them. That can be very dangerous and there is really nothing you can do to help.
The Suboxone likely through him into severe withdrawals, it's very dangerous to take it, while you still have other drugs in your system.
Thank you for your reply. He is doing much better. He is sleeping mostly, but I am thankful for it. That first night scared me. He played high school and college football, several wrecks, and aches and pains got him here. He called all of his hook ups this morning. He almost broke. I told him it is either grocery or this stuff. He has missed 15 calls and several text from his hook ups who all have what he wants. This is the first time he said no. He said he has to keep on. I pray he can kick it. I am scared if he ever needs surgery or gets hurt, this would cause no pain medicine to work. He can do this, and I will walk every step with him.
