Pain Pill Detox

Rising Heroin Epidemic

According to the Atlanta, Georgia based Center for Disease Control, the United States is facing an heroin addiction epidemic, and we help one patient at a time, in a customized treatment setting, one day at a time to ensure optimal treatment outcomes that lead to long term recovery.

Efforts to curb the rampant supply of legally available prescription opiates, like Vicodin and oxycodones for instance, has sent opiate dependent addicts scrambling to find a suitable replacement drug. Heroin fits the bill.

Prescription drugs and illicit opiates like heroin and morphine all act on the brain receptors in the same manner. They seek to mask or alter the pain pathway that the patient is suffering from, and in so doing alleviate their suffering. The unintended consequence however, is the need for the patient to continue the euphoric feeling that taking the opiates generate.

Every patient is different in terms of the path they took to their current situation however, and that is why we structure our medically approved detox program to tailor the perfect treatment solution for each individual patient.

Fine Tuning Your Recovery

Let’s begin by defining some terms. Agonist and antagonist reference how a drug interacts physiologically with the brain. An agonist excites the opioid receptor in the brain that, in turn, opens the brain’s receptors to an opiate’s effects. Heroin is a full opioid agonist that fully activates all the receptors in the brain resulting in an array of mental and physical manifestation that is severe and indicative of the addictiveness of the drug. Buprenorphine, as a partial opioid agonist, mimics these effects, but delivers a vastly diminished dosage that helps ward off the withdrawal symptoms of a stronger opioid.

While an agonist excites and opens the brain’s opioid receptor, an antagonist, such as found in naloxone, firmly shuts those receptors down and blocks the ability of agonists to make a chemical connection with the brain. The tendency of drugs, like Naloxone, to completely shut down the access of opioid to the brain’s receptors makes it dangerous when used alone owing to the triggering of strong withdrawal symptoms that include agitation and irritability, mood swings and insomnia, vomiting and nausea, and muscle cramps along with diarrhea.

With a medically supervised and safely delivered pain pill detox program, we guarantee that your battle against addiction is as successful as possible, so contact us today and let us begin that journey together.

The Importance of Aftercare

Previously, patients who suffered from both substance abuse problems, and mental health issues, first needed to cleanup their addiction problems prior to seeking mental health treatment.

Unfortunately, this approach ignores the often-interlocking relationship that exists between substance abuse and mental health issues. Dual Diagnosis combines the best practices of both mental health treatment and substance abuse healing, so a customized treatment plan can be drawn up for each individual.

We look at the core reasons for your addiction before recommending a suitable treatment options. Towards that end, we practice a Dual Diagnoses treatment to address both the addiction itself, and any mental health issues that might lie behind the destructive behavior. To help you recover and keep you on the path of recovery, we offer the following:

• Individual therapy
• Group therapy
• Family therapy
• 12 Step programs
• Dual Diagnoses treatment

Our pain pill detox help means that you don’t have to stand alone in your fight against addiction, so you should learn about all of your treatment options that are designed to get you out from under your opiate addiction.
