Hello
Welcome to HCM.
Drug addiction is really problematic and affects your life tremendously. I understabd your concerns.
This is good that you have taken a strong decision to quit corex. This will require a persistent motivation as it can be slightly painful initially. But i can assure you that if you pass this initial phase, you will be able to stop it and lead a happy. Obce out of it, you can have children like anyone else.

For the treatment, drugs like amitriptyline, diclofenac, cetrizine can be used. In other words the treatment is purely symptomatic. Some clinicians may prefer to use tramadol or buprenorphine.
But these drugs are taken only under psychiatrist's supervision.

Hope this helps you.
Thanks.
