   HELP! In Detox & need name (Addiction & Recovery board)

28th August 2007
Does anyone know that name of medication (not sure if it's OTC or prescribed) that's used when detoxing for muscle/leg cramps. I was up basically all night (was VERY tired in mind & body) but my freakin' legs wouldn't stop. They felt anxious almost....weak and achy. And i woke up literally every 5-10 min. for over 5 hrs. I had taken sleeping med., so my body was SOOO tired, but i couldn't get comfortable.
Unfortunately, i decided to do this pretty quick, and i'm just getting the necessary vitamins/minerals into my system TODAY....I haven't had time to get into my system before like i'd planned.

My Mom has a prescription for Quinine (she has fibro.) and is bringing it to me...along with Zinc, B-Complex & B-12 Sub. drops & Fish Oil....The rest of the vitamins are already in my pre-natal vitamin.
I THINK the medication started with a "C".....
Also...since i'm going to have the Quinine, is that "C" medication NOT necessary?

Are you maybe thinking about clonodine? It is often used in detox. It is a blood pressure med, prescription. I know it can help with the sweats and even anxiety. Clonodine would not, I don't think anyway, help with the legs so much.

What you are taking with the Bs should help. I also took Magnesium... just a supplement. One 250 mg tab midmorning, one 250 mg tab midevening. It promotes nerve health and did help some with the legs. As should Quinine. Taake hot baths, massage bengay into the legs.

hang in, Sweetie, hang in
