Question
Hello I was wondering if you know what I could do, I'v been on lortabs for a while now about 2 years for my back pain but I'v become addicted to them to the point I am taking about 15-20 pills aday what are my options for getting off the lortabs but still what can I take for the  pain

Answer
Hi Jerry,

At the outset I am glad you have sought help and want to get rid of your addiction.  I suggest first you visit your doctor or a medical facility and explain your problem of the pain.  Get an alternative therapy like physical therapy, water therapy etc.  Stop the tablets immediately.  After you have found an alternative therapy for your problem mail me back & I will help you to kick your addiction.

God bless


Amarnath
