  • Hydrocodone withdrawal?

    If he cannot get a refill from his physician, he will likely start developing withdrawal symptoms that are serious, but not life-threatening, and may need treatment especially due to his age and depending on other comorbid medical conditions. I would schedule an appointment with his doctor ASAP or take him to the ER or urgent care to discuss next steps. Best thing to do is find an alternate pain management option long-term. READ MORE
