Opana Home Detox

Detoxing from Opana can be tricky – a physical dependence will result in the development of withdrawal symptoms once use is stopped.

Long-term use or abuse of Opana can lead to dependence, requiring that patients undergo detox in order to be treated. Opana is a narcotic prescription medication meant to control moderate to severe pain. It contains oxymorphone, a powerful opiate painkiller, and comes in an extended-release version. Detoxing from Opana can be tricky – a physical dependence will result in the development of withdrawal symptoms once use is stopped. These symptoms can be dangerous and extremely painful, making it difficult to handle alone. Opana addiction is best treated by professionals who specialize in addiction medicine. Trying to detox at home can be difficult because patients can become very sick. Withdrawal can also be so intolerable that patients begin to use the drug again, falling into a cycle of use and relapse.

Detoxification is the process in which the body begins to rid itself of the drug. This can be brought about when patients abstain from use or when they seek medical help to detox. There are home remedies or “detox kits” advertised on the Internet, purporting to treat the dependence quickly and easily in the comfort of your home. Many people don’t find these useful, as many don’t offer the kind of support needed at this time. There are also detox facilities that treat patients in a number of ways but quickly discharge them to recover on their own. The days immediately following detox are critical. Patients need support, encouragement and close supervision.

Patients Can Be Opiate Free in a Short Amount of Time

Withdrawal management is a key component to a successful detox. The Waismann Institute in southern California has a unique approach to deal with symptoms such as body shakes, muscle and bone pain, agitation, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and headaches. We offer a safe, effective and discreet opiate detox that takes place in a hospital. Our rapid detox wipes out opiate addiction in less than two hours with our procedure that cleanses patients’ opiate receptors with intravenous medication. Patients are comfortable during this because they are lightly sedated by general deep sedation. We never use Suboxone or methadone to wean patients because they are opiate replacements and can be habit-forming. The medication speeds up withdrawal symptoms, which develop and pass while patients are under deep sedation. They have no conscious awareness that they are experiencing withdrawal. Patients stay between 3 and 6 days in the hospital and can return home upon discharge. Others may want to transition in our Domus Retreat aftercare facility. Patients here can benefit from counseling, biofeedback and other therapies that aid in the recovery process.
