Usually no longer than a week, depending on how long you have been taking it. The restless leg syndrom should be gone after three or four days. Benadryl will help with the anxiety and twitchiness. About 50mg. If it doesn't get any better, consult your doctor to see about being weaned off of the medication, instead of quitting cold turkey. Some people tolerate weaning better than cold turkey. You may be one of them.

Hi I have to take Dicodin, generic, and have not had any problems in 6 years, however they can be addictive so I change to another not so effective pain reliever. Twitchy legs, not had that one though.
The withdrwal takes me about a day or two though.

The muscular twitches might be due to you changing medication recently. I was taking Co-Proxamol for years and it's now being decommissioned so I had to switch to Paracetamol and got the twitchy legs. It's withdrawal symptoms!!

it will depend on how long you have been taking it, if it has been prescribed or used illicitly, it can take couple of weeks, to completely clear from the system.
