Maybe im just afraid, however, Iv been taking Vicodin 7.5 (hydrocodone) for about 5 months started a few from my mom for pain for 1st month then 5. mg for one month @x day and the 7,5 for the next 3 month no more than 3 day but iv been breaking them up in to 4ths and taking them every 3 to 4 hrs. I have been waking up with headache and feeling bad first thing i think of is taking a pain pill how bad will the with drawl symptoms be?
P.S. iv read that tramadole may help if taken only for 5 to 10 days and also tamazapam, and colonodine (blood pressure) Am i psyching my self out?

If you've only been taking them for this short of a period of time and only taking a fraction of the tablet, then at this point, your withdrawal symptoms, if any, should be minimal.

If you do experience them, they may include: nausea, drowsiness, headache and rebound pain.

While Tramadol may help, it can be habit forming itself and the same would apply to the Temazepam.

Clonidine has been reported to help, but it also carries risks, such as low blood pressure and heart rate, plus like all others you've mentioned, it requires a doctor's prescription.

Are there any other questions?
