Withdrawal symptoms can be uncomfortable, but there are medications that can help manage specific symptoms while your body stabilizes. Your QuickMD clinician may recommend one or more of the following based on your situation. These are supportive treatments and do not replace your primary medication.
| Symptom | What may help |
| Nausea or vomiting | Ondansetron (Zofran) 4 to 8 mg as needed |
| Diarrhea | Loperamide (Imodium) as directed — only take if you have significant diarrhea |
| Anxiety or agitation | Hydroxyzine (Vistaril) 25 to 50 mg up to 4 times daily |
| Insomnia | Trazodone 50 to 100 mg or doxepin 10 to 50 mg at bedtime |
| High blood pressure or sweating | Clonidine 0.1 mg every 8 hours — your clinician will advise if appropriate |
Please consult your QuickMD clinician before starting any of these medications, as they may not be suitable for everyone. If you need immediate assistance, contact our Patient Support Team right away.
