What is Rapid Detox?

The rapid detox process is generally conducted in a hospital setting and under general anesthesia. Also referred to as 'ultra rapid opiate detox,' rapid detox for opiate based substances and addictions such as Oxycontin, Heroin, Vicodin, Methadone, Percocet, Lortab, or any prescribed narcotic pain killers.

The Rapid Detox Procedure

Under general anesthesia, the patient is administered medications which stop the action of narcotics and opiate drugs. This rapid detox process results in rapid withdrawal from the physical effects of addiction. Because the patient is asleep during the entire detox process, there is no awareness of drug withdrawal. Following the rapid detox procedure, the patient awakens without any symptoms of physical dependence. Relapse prevention can begin immediately after a brief recovery period of just a few days.
The entire rapid detox process is conducted under the supervision of a board certified anesthesiologist. Rather than taking weeks or months, patients can return to their homes and jobs within days of the procedure, free from the burden of opiate drug addiction.

Rapid detox usually takes place in an intensive care unit. Patients are usually discharged within 48 hours following recovery from anesthesia and assessment of their physical status.
