Why Does Hydrocodone/APAP Withdrawal Occur?
Over time, the body becomes accustomed to the effects of hydrocodone/APAP. If the drug is stopped too quickly, withdrawal symptoms may occur. Hydrocodone/APAP withdrawal can occur with chronic, legitimate use of the drug, as well as with hydrocodone/APAP abuse. Withdrawal is a normal, predictable, physical response to stopping a narcotic; it is not necessarily a sign of abuse.
