Painless Opiate Detoxification
While flipping channels I stumbled upon and became fixated on a show called intervention. This interest then spilled over into me doing research on the internet. There are many methods for quitting an opiate addiction, some more successful than others. Cold turkey is the one that is probably most often tried. While success isn’t always guaranteed, physical pain and illness seems to be. Apparently, rapid opiate detox is the least painful way to quit an addiction. Patients are anesthetized and given a combination of medications that speed up the detoxification process. Pain does still occur but it all happens while the patient is asleep so they experience no discomfort. While I am not certain what the exact success rate is for this type of detoxification I’m certain its higher than those centers Lindsay Lohan gets checked into.
