> How long does the nausea and headaches last? this is day 21 without med. i have bee using over the counter benadryl . it's not as bad as as 1 week. seems like it's not lasting as long. help help!From reading many posts on this topic, the time it takes for withdrawal really seems to vary a lot. It probably depends on how long you took the medicine, your own genetic predisposition, the rate at which you're reducing etc.
Hang in there. I hope you feel better soon. (If not, find another doctor to help you more. You shouldn't have to suffer this much!)
