Oxycontin Withdrawal

In the medical community today, there are two big problems. The first is that doctors are often too liberal in the administration of prescription drugs such as opiate painkillers. The second is that doctors are often hesitant to talk to their patients about potential prescription drug dependencies.

For a multitude of reasons, it has become increasingly common for doctors to hand out open-ended prescriptions for potent narcotics such as OxyContin. Biggest among these is the fact that many doctors don't have the knowledge or the time to properly treat diseases such as chronic pain. To help their patients, they give out painkillers in the hopes of anaesthetising the problem.

On top of this, a National Institute of Health study showed that physicians find that prescription drug dependency is the hardest topic to bring up with their patients. Over 40 percent of doctors report having difficulty discussing this with their patients--but less than 20 percent have trouble talking about depression. If your doctor is reluctant to discuss prescription drug dependency and OxyContin withdrawal with you, then it's time you take matters into your own hands.
