| Hey guys, I have been taking vicodin for a few months now, not as much as a
lot of people do, i take 4 a night. Usually 2 around 8pm, and then 2 more
around midnight. I never take any during the day and usually feel fine I
originally started taking them weekends for a nice buzz, but then i had a
week off and wanted to have that buzz all week. I was wondering what kind of
withdrawl effects I can expect.What could i expect if i just want off of
them for a few days? I usually take the 750 whites but sometimes the blues.
Any advice would be appreciated, I'd like to do this naturally and not have
to take other drugs to avoid the withdrawl, thx... - Will

Google is your friend.
Taken from http://www.drugabuse.com/drugs/vicodin/

restlessness, muscle pain, bone pain, insomnia, diarrhea, vomiting, cold
flashes, goose bumps, involuntary leg movements, watery eyes, runny nose
loss of appetite, irritability, panic, nausea, chills, and sweating.

Treatment:
Any person using Vicodin for more than several weeks should consult their
medical professional before stopping the drug. Generally speaking, a gradual
weaning off of the drug is optimal and less traumatic to the user's physical
and emotional health. With a moderate to severe addiction, an in patient
detox in a hospital or medically supervised setting is highly recommended
for its multi-disciplinary approach. The "information age" has produced
numerous on line support forums, popular with many recovering addicts,
useful to some addicts as their sole means of support and for others, as
adjunct therapy. Drug addiction is treatable, with help out there for
everyone.
