[juleigh]

hello to all...ive read here for quite some time but this is my 1st post.....my question is does anyone know if compazine would be of any help to me during withdrawal from hydrocodone? I know it would help with nausea and vomiting but i think it is also used for other things. Any info from you all would be appreciated..thanks julie

I don't know anything about the drug but are you planning a cold turkey? How many are you taking and for how long? What has made you decide it's time to quit? Good luck to you and continue to post... I'm glad you did, I just wish I could have answered your question, sorry.

My husband started taking Compazine 6 years ago for undiagnosed chronic nausea. He can't get off the Compazine and has increased the dosage (with Dr's approval). He's obsessive about taking it every 3 hours; sets the alarm through the night. It's turned him into a zombie...sleeps 15-20 hours a day. Be careful with this drug...it's a powerful anti-psychotic (neuroleptic) and can hook you.
