I used methoxetamine to ween myself from a tramadol/suboxone habit. To be more accurate, I used suboxone to get off of tramadol and then methoxetamine when I ran out of suboxone. I, too, had read reports about methoxetamine being a potential aid in kicking an opiate addiction and decided to take the plunge a few months back. It worked out fairly well -- did not experience many withdrawal symptoms, either physical and mental. However, my habit was not as severe as that of your family member.
In my experience, methoxetamine tends to play well with other mild substances when used for this purpose. Immodium, benadryl (diphenhydramine), doxylamine, melatonin, benzos, and alcohol can be used safely if doses are kept low and can also useful for controlling withdrawal symptoms. Methoxetamine also does not have too many side effects; but some to watch out for are dizziness, confusion, high pulse, etc. Again, this is dose-dependent.
Keep in mind that it is important not to switch addictions. When used in the short term (<2 weeks), I would say that there is little addiction potential. Beyond that, a very strong physiological addiction can be created. However, methoxetamine is not nearly as addicting as opiates and withdrawal symptoms are usually minor (such as cravings) and are gone rather quickly.
Good luck, and let us know how it goes
