Opiate and Opioid Home Detox Treatment for Opiate Dependence and withdrawal
Opiate Addiction Home Detox:
Oxycontin, Vicodin, Percocet or Heroin: Opiate Detox has the potential to be extremely uncomfortable and often results in continued opiate use whether your use has been weeks, months or years. An opiate home detox can be orchestrated using a variety of medically-managed programs.
Medication Management of Opiate Withdrawal: Opiate Detox using Buprenorphine (Suboxone):
Suboxone is a medication that can be taken at home to help you detox from opiates. Suboxone is actually a combination of two medications, Buprenorphine (an opiate agonist), and Naloxone (an opiate antagonist). It is safe and effective when used correctly. Many people dependent on opiates have tried to detox using suboxone but have not used it under the appropriate supervision. Executive Home Detox can provide that supervision. When used correctly, Suboxone can assist in a fairly comfortable seven-ten day detox at home. Many clinicians want to place the opiate user on Suboxone for months at a time. This does not have to be the case. With supervision, an opiate detox can (usually) be accomplished in seven to ten days.
One-to-one care is highly effective during an opiate home detox treatment because of the agitation that may result. There is always comfort in knowing that an expert clinician is always on-site by your side 24/7 to comfort, diagnose and treat.
Suboxone Maintenance:
Suboxone is a medication that can be taken at home for opiate detox or opiate maintenance. Suboxon can be used to maintain an opiate dependence. The supervised use of Suboxone can assist an individual to stabilize their life while controlling their opiate use. This office based therapy is an alternative to Methadone maintenance.
Opiate Detox using other medications:
Suboxone has quickly become the standard for opiate withdrawal, however there are a number of other medications used for the management of withdrawal and used to diminish discomfort of the opiate detox.
Methadone:
Methadone is a synthetic long acting opiate. Per Drug Enforcement Agency regulations, Methadone may only be used on an inpatient basis for opiate withdrawal and cannot be used in an outpatient or home detox.
Clonidine:
Clonidine (Catapres) is a centrally acting alpha-agonist hypotensive agent that relieves some of the signs and symptoms of opiate withdrawal. This medication has many side effects and requires close monitoring.
Benzodiazepines:
Benzodiazepines are an anti-anxiety class of medication that provide comfort during withdrawal. Benzodiazepines can be highly addictive and require very close monitoring when used with clients who have a history of addiction.
NSAID’s:
Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs such as Ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil) can be partially effective for pain relief. Pain is a symptom of opiate withdrawal.
Dicyclomine:
Dicyclomine (Bentyl) is an anticholinergic drug used to treat irritable bowel syndrome. An overactive bowel may be a symptom of opiate withdrawal.
Three Phases of Home Opiate Detox Treatment:
