Lortab addiction

What is the best way to detox off lortabs? im at about 3-5 10mg pills a day, and am down to my last 7 pills. i have tried to quit before but only got about 2 maybe 3 days into it and relapsed. any advice would be great. i am hoping this time is that last time.

ur dose is low...mentally is the toughest part...u just gotta make it thru that first week or so...then give it some time..knowing what to expect will help alot..read thru the health pages/post here///learn what u need to do..when u r ready, then make a plan and go for it....the thomas recipe in the health pages, exercise and meetings helped me...plus posting and posting and posting here..i really do feel like this forum is a type of aftercare for many..it is for me..and dont beat urself up for not aking it..ur mind is just getting urself ready to make its final decision..hang tight

  If you can go 4 or perhaps 5 days then you will pretty much be through the detox part.  The diareaha and anxiety will lessen and be pretty much over.  

  If you can have your Dr. prescribe Clonidine and a few tranzene,  this would be a major help.   You will have to get Immodium, otc pain med, benadryl, hot baths or showers, heating pad for muscle aches.  You can do this,  you just nearly did make it all the way through before.  It is unpleasant to say the least,  but you can make it through this.
