I ALWAYS QUIT COLD TURKEY OR CHECKED MYSELF INTO TREATMENT- IS THERE PILLS HE CAN GET- PLEASE HELP ME BEFORE I LOSE ANOTHER FRIEND TO THE DEVIL!!!!!!
I think going cold turkey is only appropriate depending on the type of person you're dealing with. Although going cold turkey is the most hardest and painful choice, i think it's the best alternative cause then addicts are more likely not to turn back to use, never forgetting how much hell they went through during their withdrawal. To answer your question, there is a pill, i suggest you get your friend on a SUBUTEX program, there's a facts posted up in here, it tells you everything, so it's really worth reading. It's a pill taken and disolved under the tongue, it then enters the bloody stream and acts as a filter clearing the blood of drugs. This acts as a blocker to other opiates, so if your friend decides to use, he wouldn't be able to feel the effects of h and may even feel sick.
If it's taken properly, subutex can be quite successful as many addicts have provided positive feedback about this program so it's worth a try. Though remember there's no use helping your friend if he doesn't really want help himself.. right?
Anyways.. good luck with everything..
