M.S. Contin Precautions

A physical addiction can also develop and patients who attempt to stop taking M.S. Contin suddenly after a prolonged time can have severe withdrawal symptoms.

Taking any prescription medication requires a bit of research. Because it’s so important to use the medication safely, instructions should be read carefully to avoid risks. Precautions and warnings are spelled out on the prescription label. M.S. Contin is a potent pain medication that is the extended-release version of morphine. It is intended for around-the-clock pain that is moderate to severe in nature. People who use opiate medications recreationally risk addiction, overdose and a painful recovery. M.S. Contin can be habit-forming and may interact with other substances. Narcotics depress the central nervous system and can be deadly when combined with alcohol, other opiates, benzodiazepines and other CNS depressants. Because it can lead to dependency, M.S. Contin should not be used by people who have had problems with substance abuse. It could interact with other substances and foods so patients should tell doctors about everything they take including vitamins and supplements.

Things to Watch Out For Before Taking M.S. Contin or Other Opiates

M.S. Contin should be used with caution in patients who have a number of conditions including head injury, alcoholism, asthma, other respiratory problems and compromised blood pressure. Allergic reaction is another possible complication to watch for when using opiates. Symptoms can include rash, itching, hives, dizziness, trouble breathing and swelling. M.S. Contin can be a target for recreational use, abuse and illegal diversion. Because of this, it should never be shared and should always be stored in a secure location. It’s important that this drug is taken exactly as intended. Deviating from the prescribed dosage can lead to serious problems including overdose which can be fatal. A physical addiction can also develop and patients who attempt to stop taking M.S. Contin suddenly after a prolonged time can have severe withdrawal symptoms. Detox should never be attempted without the help of medical professionals.

M.S. Contin Addiction Can Be Eliminated After One Hospital Visit

Waismann Method has been providing the international community with top-notch opiate detox for more than a decade. Our program is thorough, safe and effective, wiping out physical addiction once and for all. Our rapid opiate detox occurs in the safety of a hospital where intravenous medications are given while patients are lightly sedated. This takes less than two hours and cleanses the M.S. Contin from patients’ opiate receptors. Accelerated withdrawal symptoms develop and pass while patients are under general deep sedation. Our compassionate process allows them to essentially skip a painful withdrawal and move forward with recovery. Patients are then supervised very closely and their total hospital stay is 3 to 6 days. We don’t use opiate replacements such as methadone in our M.S. Contin treatment program. We don’t want to replace one opiate source with another. Instead, our medically advanced detox wipes out physical addiction very quickly. Psychological issues that may have contributed to the dependency are treated on an optional basis at our Domus Retreat transitional living facility.
