Hi everyone!
I recently received a variety of medications from my doctors to help reduce my oxycodone use. These medications include hydroxyzine, diphenhydramine, clonidine, Adderall IR, hydrocodone, diazepam, clonazepam, baclofen, eszopiclone, zolpidem, gabapentin, melatonin, and a few other medications and supplements.
This is all in preparation for a detox program (Iboga/Ibogaine) I will begin at the end of August. Ideally, I am trying to keep my dosing to a minimum. Since I don't currently have a benzodiazepine dependency, my doctors suggested that I might overcompensate with opiates to keep my benzodiazepine use low. This is important because benzodiazepines will also be part of my detox plan.
My question is: are there any combinations of these medications that might help potentiate the effects of the opiates, allowing me to take less, or help keep me calm throughout the day? The main issue I am encountering is that my opiate tolerance is increasing by about 10% daily.
Additionally, I want to avoid any obviously dangerous interactions and the risk of serotonin syndrome, which I recently learned about. Any advice or experiences are welcome. I would really appreciate all the help I can get.
Thank you!
Ps: Ibogaine does not work with benzodiazepines, so since I don’t have a dependency right now, I would like to avoid developing one prior to my Detox.
