Demerol WITHDRAWAL

Demerol withdrawal can be life threatening and requires expert medically supervised detox and management.

Demerol WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOMS

Demerol withdrawal symptoms mirror those of other opioids and can be incredibly serious. While each user’s Demerol withdrawal symptoms will vary according to the frequency and duration of their abuse, some of the more common symptoms include anxiety, paranoia, agitation, sleep disorder, restlessness and irritability, stomach issues (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea), flu-like symptoms, joint and muscle pain, excessive sweating, high blood pressure, hallucinations and more. Demerol withdrawal symptoms mirror those of heroin and other powerful prescription opioids and should be treated with the help of an experienced and qualified medical professional.

Demerol WITHDRAWAL TIMELINE

The timeline of Demerol withdrawal is different for every user, but generally occurs in three stages: early, acute and prolonged. Protracted Demerol withdrawal can last for months and can often require maintenance medications. Demerol withdrawal symptoms can occur in as little as six to eight hours after the last use. The early stage often lasts anywhere from 24-48 hours before symptoms are magnified during the acute stage. Acute withdrawal is considered the worst part of the process and it’s usually where patients experience the most discomfort and sickness. It can last for a few days, after which symptoms will taper.
