[|Human|] Hi  name is Derek i am 50yrs old and have been taking dihydrocodiene for approx 12yrs up to 600mg per day my questiston is what is the  best way to come off them.i am 5ft 10 inches in height and weigh  just under 8 stone. your help in this matter would be most appreciated.
[|AI|]  This is going to need close supervision. At 100-150 mg/day. A program with Suboxone, meetings, family involvement will work the vast majority of the time. And at much higher doses it is hard to get onto the Suboxone because it would precipitate with Chat Doctor. Gradual lowering of dose with other medications to handle side effects as they arise. There can be individual issues that I couldn't be aware of that would even further complicate the situation. I cannot say in your particular case, but his is some general information.
