How to help a friend who is detoxing

My boyfriend has recently started detoxing from oxycontin. Anyone familiar with that process?

I hope that you seek support for yourself at AlAnon or NarAnon.

I hope your boyfriend has spoken with his dr about the detox.

Hi LL410.

Welcome - you find a lot of reading in our substance abuse forum

Just keep in mind we can't give medical advice here - it's always best that your bf seeks professional medical advice
