What Is Morphine Withdrawal?

Morphine is an opiate that can be very addictive. It can be safe when taken in small doses as a doctor prescribes. However, using large doses or abusing morphine can lead to a quick physical and psychological addiction.

When someone misuses morphine, it activates the brain’s reward system, encouraging repeated use. This can result in tolerance and dependence. Once a person depends on morphine, they need it to feel normal. If they stop using it, they will experience withdrawal as their brain adjusts to functioning without the drug.

Withdrawal symptoms often feel like the flu and can cause physical and emotional pain. They vary from person to person and last for different lengths of time.

Common Symptoms of Morphine Withdrawal

Morphine withdrawal can be very uncomfortable, especially for heavy users. The symptoms can be more intense based on a person’s tolerance, health, metabolism, and how long and often they have used the drug. Generally, people who take high doses of morphine for a long time will have worse symptoms.

Common symptoms of morphine withdrawal include:

  • Runny nose
  • Watery eyes
  • Fever
  • Vomiting
  • Nausea
  • Headaches
  • Sweating
  • Chills
  • Muscle aches
  • Diarrhea
  • Increased blood pressure
  • Agitation
  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Disorientation
  • Insomnia

Many of these symptoms can lead to dehydration, which can be very serious or even fatal. The discomfort from extreme temperature changes may prevent some users from seeking help, even though medications can ease withdrawal.

Sometimes, the pain of withdrawal is too much and leads users to relapse. A morphine treatment program with medical detox can support users during withdrawal and lower the chances of relapse.
