Dear Kamal,
Are you dependent on narcotics? Buprenorphine makes this addictive habit less risky. You may not overdose and die of narcotics. With buprenorphine, less withdrawal symptoms. All the other tablets may be for your associated mental health issues or management of withdrawal symptoms or for medical complication of your habit of taking narcotics. Please decide for something less harmful so that you can have better quality of life.

Yes it can be quitted but journey of recovery is not as short as 1 month. In most case it takes around 4-6 month, in some it might take a year or so, but not with tapentadol alone.

Hi lybrate-user
there are many strong forces in you despite yor substance dependence.
You are a player and have strong motive to go up.
You can definitely defeat the negative forces.
Drug dependence is a clinical condition.
Always better to stay in some de addiction facility or hospital so that you will get expert help.
Take care.

Unfortunately the tramadol tablets that you are taking are themselves a form of opioid tablets, and maybe as you have used them for such long, stopping them abruptly is causing you discomfort. Tapering them down is one option for you, or you can consult a psychiatrist for help. Other than that, sudden arkamin stoppage can also cause rebound hypertension, and so its tapering is also required.

Mr. lybrate-user, you do not get addicted to mirtazapine. There can be some withdrawal symptoms such as sleeplessness, irritability, but not with such a small dose.

As answered by my other colleagues, we need detailed history to know what is your underlying medical problem and the need for long term steroid therapy. Consult your physician to know the need for long term steroids. This question is better answered by a physician than psychiatrists.
