Hello, Boston59! How are you?
It is difficult to say with certainty. It really depends on your own body and how it reacts to withdrawing from a medication like this. For example, when I had my surgery and was taking Oxycodone for a few weeks afterwards, I didn't have a problem stopping it, when no longer needed, but not everyone does well.
Have you discussed the issue with your doctor? How often do you take it?
This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.
If you didn't use it iv. With a needle prolly not if you shot them good luck with hell go to treatment not methadone or suboxone
