How would you treat someone who suffers withdrawal from angel dust (PCP) and cocaine? My friend Nicky was?

given a marijuana joint that was laced with angel dust and cocaine by a jealous co-worker. He now has various symptoms (depression, panic, shaking, electric shocks, etc).
What do they give for this condition in clinics and rehab centers?

    I know with heroin they give you kind of like a substitute for the drug. usually in liquid form, its not harmful though. it helps with withdrawal. or sometimes you just have to get through it on your own, be there with a bucket he will probably throw up alot.

    they don’t give anything, (methadone, is for heroin “addicts” hence the word addict)

    the effects of marijuana and cocaine should be gone within 72 hours, if not less

    the emotions he feels are probably due to the shock of having induced a laced drug,

    if this is a one-time thing, the repercussions should be minimal.

    If he only had it once should come out his system about a week later problem is cocaine is addictive and perhaps these symptoms are his body telling him it wants more, please don’t be tempted no medication for marijuana as psychological dependency for hash, cocaine is another matter as I say if only used once should ease of if your friend is hooked can be detoxed from cocaine with quite a few things , better to speak to gp

    If your friend is in that bad of a condition he should seek medical help asap. you never really know what was in that laced joint. People are lacing them with rat poison, and other really poisonous chemicals. He could be experiencing a side effects/allergic reaction from whatever it was that they put in the joint.( he may be damaged forever) It only takes one time!
    I would suggest getting him some help. Only Dr.’s know what would be the solution to this problem. He sounds pretty bad!
    this co-worker should be arrested and she will be if anything happens to him. I would report her.
