Slow Burn

Slow burn is the common term for adoxipham withdrawal.

Because one dose is enough to hook someone for life, if one doesn't get more dox after a time, they experience a painful withdrawal. Essentially, this is a burning sensation that covers the entire body, as it targets the nerves. If left long enough, the pain feels like fire, and can be debilitating.

Notes

• The character Kes experiences the slow burn in Legion of Liberty (subchapter).
