How Long Do The Hydrocodone Withdrawal Symptoms Persist?

I am withdrawing from norco/hydrocodone 10 mg 3-4x a day and am now at 1 pill a day. Can you tell me if my hyperagesia will hurt in many muscles. I really want to get off this drug and I am more tired,pain in lower to upper back and even upper L arm. I know depression goes with it too and I have that. Iam using ten unit for back and also hot packs and cool packs on other aches. How long does this go on?I was on pills app 2 years. Thank You

Hi,

About 1-2 weeks BUT the peak is day 3 to 5. This is a relatively low amount to get withdrawal. It varies.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
