heroin detox
Heroin addiction can be one of the more testing drug addictions to overcome. One of the major hurdles to conquer is managing the withdrawal symptoms. Such symptoms generally begin within 12 hours of stopping the drug and can often peak after two to four days. The symptoms may include: nausea, anxiety, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, insomnia, chills, sweating, weakness and irritability. At Tailored Rehab we see it as essential to detox in a medically supervised environment, this process is the safest and most comfortable for the client rather than attempting to quit "cold turkey" without medical supervision.
Doctors who focus in addiction recovery can administer a combination of medications, such as benzodiazepines that can help to ease withdrawal symptoms, drugs such as subutex or methadone are also occasionally used in an opiate detox.
At Tailored Rehab we will assess your needs by way of a short telephone conversation, and refer you to the most suitable treatment centre to begin your recovery. Any centre which we refer individuals to the most prestige status and reputation.
