You are invited to join our inpatient opiate detoxification program designed specifically to treat Heroin addiction, Oxycontin addiction, Vicodin addiction, Methadone addiction, Norco addiction and most other opiate addictions.

Heroin addiction is one of the most difficult problems a person may ever face. Most opiate addicts will try and fail countless times to rid themselves of their dependence to heroin. The common denominator that causes most heroin addicts to fail during detoxification is that heroin addicts often try to detox themselves. The one absolute for heroin addiction is that heroin addicts cannot detox themselves. Heroin addicts self-medicate as a matter of course and to leave the opiate detoxification program up to the heroin addict is an exercise in futility. If you are a heroin addict that is looking into help take a look back at how many times you tried to do it yourself. The facts speak for themselves.

It actually matters little if the opiate in question is Vicodin, Oxycontin, Methadone, Heroin, Norco or Morphine. All opiates affect pretty much the same neurotransmitters in the brain. In turn, opiate withdrawal symptoms for all opiates are very similar in nature. The symptoms can range depending on the duration of use, the amount of use and the half-life of the individual opiate. Opiate detox can cause severe withdrawal symptoms when medication is not used to help reduce discomfort. Most opiate detox models include physician oversight to mask withdrawal symptoms which increases the odds of a successful opiate detox.

Kicking heroin and other opiates is like having the flu times ten. Most of the common opiate withdrawal symptoms include:

• insomnia
• sneezing
• runny nose
• watery eyes
• nausea
• vomiting
• anxiety
• restlessness
• depression
• suicidal ideations
• diarrhea
• tachycardia
• muscle aches
• loss of appetite
• sweating
• hot and cold flashes
• goose bumps
• feeling of impending doom

The general rule of thumb regarding heroin detox is that heroin withdrawal symptoms are exactly the opposite of heroin’s effects. A good example is constipation during heroin use and diarrhea during heroin withdrawal.

Heroin has a half-life of approximately 20 minutes; it then metabolizes into morphine which has a half-life of about 120 minutes, for a total half-life of 2.5 hours with subsequent 2.5 hour half-life periods. The half-life of heroin demands that most heroin addicts use heroin between 3 and 4 times daily just to maintain equilibrium or i.e. heroin homeostasis.

The latest hope in the treatment of Heroin Addiction, Methadone Addiction and Oxycontin Addiction is "The Drug Abuse Act of 2000" that allows the prescription of Suboxone for opiate addicts to ease the withdrawal symptoms during heroin detox, methadone detox and oxycontin detox. Whereas drugs like heroin, methadone, vicodin and oxycontin are pure agonists; meaning they fully bind to the mu receptors in the brain and produce copious amounts of dopamine; Buprenorphine HCl, the main ingredient within Suboxone is a partial agonist which limits the production of dopamine. The receptors are literally tricked into believing that all is well because the mu receptor is full. For the first time opiate drug rehabs and opiate drug detox centers can use Suboxone to provide a comfortable Methadone detox, Heroin detox, Vicodin detox and Oxycontin detox thereby making the dreaded “Cold Turkey” opiate drug detox a thing of the past.
