Clonidine
"I tried to quit opiates on my own and I couldn't do it. I was so dependent on them I would vomit, sweat, light headed, aching bones...just miserable if I didn't have opiates in my system. I went into a detox program, and opted out of doing either a methadone or Suboxone quick taper program. I instead went on the 'opiate protocol" which was clonidine and Syraquil. I was amazed how effective it was. I went through none of the nasty initial withdrawal symptoms. After 5 days I started feeling secondary withdrawal symptoms (nausea, irritable, bad insomnia, sweating, night chills, shakes, aches)."
