thank you for your query. Spasmo proxyvon contains dextropropoxyphane, an opioid analgesic (similar, but less potent than morphine). It appears that you have opioid dependence, and since you have stopped taking the substance, you are currently suffering from withdrawal symptoms ( lacrimation, yawning, vomiting, pupilary dilation, goose skin, sweating, fluctuating blood pressure, irritability, agitation, low mood etc). The patients who come to me with this condition, I usually admit him and treat him with a gradually decreasing schedule of low potency opioid drugs like tramadol, or sometimes spasmo proxyvon itself (in much lower doses than the patient's usual dose) with regular monitoring of his vitals and withdrawal symptoms. It may take up to one to two weeks to detoxify him. after that, i usually put him on a very low dose maintenance regime(on a case by case basis) and / or put him for psychotherapy, behavior therapy and motivation enhancement therapy. substance abuse is a chronic relapsing disorder, and the current goal of treatment is to maximize the gap between relapse, and minimize the time taken to seek help after a person relapses, thereby, decreasing the period of illness.i would suggest you to consult a psychiatrist urgently, for proper management of your symptoms. He will not judge you, rather, will liberally provide help and relief from your significant distress urgently.hope i've been able to satisfy your query. please feel free to contact me further for any clarifications. best of luck.
