Excessive Sneezing

Is excessive sneezing part of withdrawal? I sneeze 8-9 times in a row still and I'm at day 15. If this is from the withdrawal, when might it go away.  It must be part of the withdrawal since it started about 2 weeks ago.

sneezing and all the other symptoms that goes along with w/d is part of getting all those toxins out of your body.  Don't take stuff to decrease the symptoms, let your body get rid of it on it's own.  The faster getting the toxins out the better you will feel.

OMG!!!! Thank you for posting that!  I'm in 2nd wk of c/t and feeling so much better, but I've been sneezing like crazy and cold (it's 98 outside!),  I thought I must have a cold. Your post and the replies you've received have helped me a lot! Glad to know this will stop soon....I could always sneeze at least 10-12 times in a row, but now I'm sneezing 5 times that!  Thanks again, and good luck to you, we should all buy stock in kleenex!:)

I'm on day 34 and the sneezes are just fading. I only had 3 in a row but it was often. Now Its down to 2 and only a couple times a day. Too bad it wasn't the only w/d !

Most of the withdrawal is gone.  I was on 300mg of Oxy per day and snorting all of it.  The withdrawal has been brutal.  I still get on and off anxiety, exhaustion, cravings, and the annoying sneezing.

Yes it is but I would think that part of the w/d should be gone by now. I would try some benadryl.
