Rapid opiate detox is a medically supervised hospital procedure to rapidly detoxify the body from opiates and other substances (drugs). Rapid detox is gaining popularity in Los Angeles rehabilitation centers as an effective tool in the rehabilitation and recovery process. While under sedation, the patient undergoes an accelerated procedure that blocks the brain's opiate receptors from any opiates. Drug addiction treatment centers like Malibu Rehab administer additional medications to accelerate the physical reactions to the rapid withdrawal while the patient is unconscious.
Drug rehabilitation centers in Los Angeles warns that opiates are very dangerous and addictive narcotics. The opiate group of drugs include naturally occurring (opium poppy extracts), and synthetic drugs commonly used for their analgesic (pain relief) and cough-suppressing properties. Heroin is a white to brown powder or gummy, black, tar-like substance derived from the opium poppy. It is injected directly into a vein, sniffed, or smoked. Rapid opiate detox can help.
The most visible and widely talked about rapid detox method is the Waismann Method. The Waismann Method, also known as “Neuro-Regulation”, is performed in a hospital intensive care unit or a drug treatment center complete with all the required drug treatment facility. “Neuro-Regulation involves cleansing the opiate receptors in the patient’s brain of narcotics while the patient is under anesthesia. During the procedure, the patient will experience no conscious withdrawal, and will be able to return home within days. Rapid opiate detox reverses a patient’s physical opiate dependency without unnecessary suffering, fear, or shame. Rapid detox also eliminates the need to spend months in hospitals or rehab programs.
The patient is put on Nalrextone or another opiate antagonist to block the opiate receptors so the addict can't get high and they are encouraged to seek counseling from addiction treatment centers. After approximately 4 to 6 hours or 12 to 48 depending on the exact drugs and method used, the patient awakens and supposedly is no longer physically dependent on opiates and has no conscious awareness of experiencing any withdrawal.
There are many conventional detoxification procedures that require a painful and debilitating withdrawal process. Rapid opiate detox is a relatively painless way for people suffering from addiction to opiates. Following rapid opiate detoxification, your body has the opportunity to begin the opiate addiction treatment process with a healthier system and a clear mind, prepared to make better life choices, without using opiates as a coping mechanism.
