Prescription Opioids

What are Prescription Opioids?

Prescription opioids are a class of drugs which has morphine-like effects. This type of medication is used to treat and manage moderate-to-severe pain. Additionally, opioid drugs are often the chosen option after surgery, injury, or another painful health condition. In the last decade, there has been a dramatic increase in opioid painkillers by pain management providers and clinics. Despite the serious risks opioids can present to patients, including addiction, doctors preferred suggestion to manage symptoms of pain is for the patient to take prescription opioids.

Opioid drugs work by binding to specific receptors in the brain, spinal cord, and other body areas. They interfere with the brain’s ability to send pain messages, subsequently reducing pain symptoms.

Prescription opioids come in tablets, capsules, syrups, solutions, and suppositories.

Because of the risk of abuse and addiction, opioids should be taken cautiously, even for chronic pain. However, opioids medications are an excellent choice when controlling pain in the later stages of a terminal illness. At that point, the possibility of long-term effects and addiction is not relevant.

Painkiller Side Effects

Opioid painkillers produce a feeling of relaxation and euphoria, and they are also addictive. The long-term use of these medications often leads to physical dependence. In other words, the body quickly adapts to the presence of the drug and depends on continuous intake to prevent withdrawal symptoms. As a result, tolerance also occurs, meaning higher and higher doses are necessary to achieve the same results.

Adverse side effects prescription opioids can cause:

Tolerance
Physical dependence
Hyperalgesia: Higher sensitivity to pain
Constipation

Nausea, vomiting, and dry mouth
Sleepiness and dizziness
Depression
Low testosterone levels

Prescription Opioid Abuse and Overdose

Anyone who continuously uses prescription opioids can develop an addiction. Research shows that one in four patients receiving long-term opioid therapy in a primary care setting struggles with opioid dependency. Once physically dependent, it can be tough to stop. It is essential to realize that taking too many painkiller opioids can also lead to death, and taking high doses can affect breathing function to such an extent that it stops. Recognizing an overdose can be challenging. If you aren’t sure, don’t leave the person alone, and make sure you call 911.

Signs of an opioid overdose may include any of the following:

Small, constricted “pinpoint pupils.”
Not being able to stay awake.
Loss of consciousness
Slow/ shallow breathing
Choking or gurgling sounds
Limp body
Pale, blue, or cold skin

Furthermore, prescription opioid overdose deaths often involve additional substances such as alcohol and benzodiazepines (Xanax®, Valium®, Ativan®). The appropriate use of naloxone can also reverse the effects of an opioid overdose when administered in time.

"A dear friend underwent rapid detox at the Waismann Method and all we can say is “THANK YOU”. My friend had (for years) been in a seemingly endless cycle of rehab and relapse. Even at some of the top rehabs, he still seemed to find his way back to opiates. I’m so grateful to say that it’s been almost a full year since his treatment at the Waismann Method and he is better than ever! He is finally himself again. Thank you to the caring, knowledgeable, warm and patient staff that supported and assisted my friend from start to finish! It was a blessing that we heard about the Waismann Method - our only wish is that we tried it sooner!"

"I have heard first hand from people who have gone through the Waismann rapid detox and they said it changed their life. They no longer felt like drug addicts and were treated like patients. Thank you Dr. Lowenstein and staff for all you do!"

They really care about the individual seeking treatment because they were always there - every step of the way! Not only is my family member sober, but he is happier than I have ever seen him in years. In all honesty, he is living the life he has always deserved. Thank you Waismann for giving him back a life worth living!"

Waismann Method® – A Highly Successful Treatment for Opioid Use Disorder

As one of the country’s top opioid detox treatment providers, the Waismann Method® is creating a massive shift in how addiction is viewed and treated. However, the embrace of the medical evolution in neuroscience shows that opiate treatment protocols may be changing. America is finally starting to look at addiction as a medical condition instead of moral failure, a condition that should be treated in a hospital by physicians.

One of the main reasons drug rehabs have such a high failure in treating opioid addiction is because they focus on addiction and forget the patient behind it. Users must keep using the drugs to stave off withdrawal. Medications like methadone and buprenorphine (also known as Suboxone) continue the opioid intake and are not an actual treatment. The key to a successful treatment is to start with effective medical detoxification. By overcoming a withdrawal, an individual can concentrate on emotional issues. Eventually, a successful medical detox significantly reduces the risk of relapse.
