Although many clinicsstillkeep performing rapid detox procedures, thescience has developedand there are other ways to treat opiate dependencyquickly and effectively, reducing the risks of anesthesia and Naltrexone side-effects,frequently reported by patients after rapid-detox treatments and implants.<?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><O:P></O:P>
Dr. Waismann from <?:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><ST1:COUNTRY-REGIoN><ST1:PLACE>Israel</ST1:PLACE></ST1:COUNTRY-REGIoN> was performing rapid detox procedure about 1O years ago, but after having treated about 2OOO patients he further developed the treatment to ANR, accelerated neuroregulation of opiate dependency. About 7OOO patients already underwent this treatment which is highly effective and humane. ANR includes postmedication - Revia (Naltrexone).
ANR treats opiate dependency on both psychological- craving - and physical -withdrawal - levels. The withdrawal passes while the patient is asleep during only 3 or 4 hours. The hospitalization takes a day and a half till 2 days, and after the day or two of recovery the patient is ready to get back to all regular activities, free from the dependency.You can find more information about ANRat www.megama.com (http://www.megama.com).<O:P></O:P><O:P></O:P>
Heroin addiction is a medical illness, it’s a central nervous system disorder caused by continuous opiate intake. For that it should be treated as such, a medical illness. In medicine the success of the treatmentis related to the knowledge, skills and experience of the doctors who are performing it. Unfortunately, most of placesthat are marketing and advertising rapid detox procedures, implants and other quick-fix and silver bullet procedures are using a very old protocol of Dr. Waismann who has pioneered the field by introducing it to modern medicine. However, most of those doctors were not trained properly and they use a strict old protocol to treat an immense variety of opiate dependent cases. Unluckily it will take time until policy makers of drug addiction will understand that the best way to fight the problem is just good medicine.<O:P></O:P>
Naltrexone, can be very effective on precipitating withdrawal and helping the patient to overcome his post-detox cravings. On the other hand, Naltrexone , like any other medication, might be very harmful and even dangerous, if not used at the right time, at the right dosage and for the right length of time. <O:P></O:P>
The implants are even worse and more dangerous. The implants carry a specific dosage which most likely will not fit the specific needs of the specific patient. So, always the patient will receive too little or too much Naltrexone. The consequences are: on too little, too many opiate receptors remain free and unblocked, the result… craving. Too much Naltrexone will cause several adversed side-effects, as tiredness, depression, insomnia, lack of appetite, sickness and mental instability. <O:P></O:P>
The combination of antagonist (Naltrexone) and anesthesia is the most effective safe and humane way of reversing opiate dependency, but has to be done and performed by a team of specialists including anesthesiologists, ICU-physicians, well trained on a general hospital which provides all the basic infrastructures for the procedure. The team doing it should take severe cases only after they got enough experience. Unfortunately, that's not what happens in most of "rapid-detox" places. <O:P></O:P>
My last advice toeveryone who willdecide to look for treatment is to check if the doctor or the clinic will relate to you as a specific human being with a very specific drug history andwith very specific body characteristics, if the doctor based his work on modern medicine, if the doctor was properly trained and if the doctor has enough experience. Challenge your doctor and ask him: how many mg of Naltrexone willIneed? And for how long? And then ask him: why not less and why not more? If you feel that he is giving more or less the same amount to most patients it means that he doesnt have a clue about what he is doing.<O:P></O:P>
Good luck to all, it is much more simple than it looks like, opiate dependency can be treated and reversed,just be careful not to fall at the wrong hands. Edited by: anna
