hi mimi,

i did similar to what liscamdave did, with her guidance.  i used the sub in very small amounts (2-3mgs) only on my worst days, and do you know thatsmall amount would keep the WDs at bay for a few days?  it really is very strong stuff but it gave me MAJOR migraines so after the unbearable parts of the Wds were over i decided(also with the support of people on here) that it had served it's purpose for me and it was time to let it go.  i am WD from methadone so it is a long process.  if you are WD from oxys or another drug where the WDs are shorter, than i would think that you really don't even need to take it for 21 days.  the WDs from those drugs don't even last that long so why would you need to take it for that long?
just my opinion, of course.  good luck.

Well, I used it for little over 21days. But it wasn't a full 4 weeks either. I forget the exact amount of days, I think maybe 25, or 26...something like that.

ANyway, I got down to as little as possible. I mean, I would smash 2mgs and just put a little under my tounge and do that every other day till I could sleep a good 4 days (through the night) without any. I did have w.d. And it sucked, but it truly was not that bad. I had minor symptoms compared to what I went through before. Someone that used to be here said she had only headaches. No other w.d. symptom. So, you may luck out. How long have you been on it. And are you tapering down? I know that 2mgs doesn't sound like alot, but it is. So do NOT try and jump off at that. Get down to as little as possible. You should be ok.

Good luck.
