My son has admitted he has been addicted to Loratabs and hyrdocoden. He claims he has stopped using them but I'm having a hard time believing him since he has slurred speech and is very emotional. Are there specific symptoms of the addiction?

I take hydro. and have no slurred speech, I would look around for a form of muscle relaxer, Soma would be one that if you take 2 or mored you would get slurred speech. It could be pretty dangerous if you take too many as it is a muscle relaxer that is commonly abused and it can stop your heart as that is a muscle. You would see a almost intoxicated state. Good luck. Make him get a drug test. How old is he?

We are going through the same with our 18 year old son. Look for half pens or some kind of a tube if he is snorting. He will be pale or pasty, and have dark circles around his eyes. His pupils will be like dots when he is using so look at his eyes in a normally lit room to see if they dialate. Loratab is a gateway drug so get him help as soon as you can. You can also buy a urine test kit from Eckard or CVS, and check at home. The half life of the drug is very short so don't warn him make the test random as you can. Look for professional help. We had an intervention on 4/16 and have seen a counselor since. Good luck.

if your son is 18 you can not drug test him. Some people give advice and dont know what they are talkin about. The only thing you can do is be there for him. It is up to the user to admit a problem and seek help.

I am 24 yrs. old & I am addicted to loratab & I don't know what to do. I have nightmares about pills & If I don't have any I feel like I can't even function. I don't know what to do...
