Rapid Percocet® Detox

Our Rapid Percocet® Detox Procedure

Percocet® is one of the brand names used for the opiate based painkiller oxycodone. You may also know oxycodone as OxyContin®. Percocet® is one of the most well-known opiate based painkillers that is prescribed to people who need help dealing with levels of pain that they find hard to cope with. It’s also one of the most mentioned names in the current opiate crisis that’s ravaging communities all across the United States.

Percocet® is one of the most difficult opiates to stop using once pain has been successfully managed, mainly due to its addictive nature and the withdrawal symptoms experienced once a person beings to flush opiates out of their body. While using Percocet®, a user’s brain and body becomes accustomed to having these excessive levels of painkilling opiates. When Percocet® is withdrawn, the body reacts in a bad way with physical and psychological symptoms that are very hard to deal with.

There remains hope, though, thanks to Advanced Rapid Detox. We have the medical skills and knowledge to help you break free from your opiate dependency. With our rapid Percocet® detox program, we can help you break free from your Percocet® addiction and cravings in as little as four days!

Our Rapid Percocet® Detox Treatment Process is as follows:

• (Day 1) — Patient completes all intake paperwork, lab work, physical exam, social worker, and case planning meeting with the doctor. Next, the patient is taken to their private room which includes a private bathroom, flat screen TV, and WIFI. All meals are included. During this time the patient keeps their cell phone. Smoking and vaping are not allowed in or around the facility. We suggest patients wear a nicotine patch. We do not want the patient in withdrawals, so they are encouraged to continue their medication until midnight.
• (Day 2) — Patient is taken to the ICU where they will remain for approximately 24 hours after the sedation detox procedure. During the sedation the doctor uses medication that reverse the opiates off the receptors. The patient remains under the care of Award Winning, Board-Certified Anesthesiologist, Dr. Julia Aharonov, and receives IV Sedation in a private treatment room to sleep through their withdrawals while closely monitored.
• After the opiate reversal, the patient receives an FDA Approved Vivitrol® injection. Vivitrol® is a brand name for Naltrexone, which blocks the effects of opioids and eliminates cravings. It should be noted that Vivitrol® eliminates the opiate cravings for 28 days, is not addictive and can be given immediately after this procedure—avoiding the usual 7-14 day period if a patient were to detox themselves.
• (Day 3) — Patient comes back to their private room (with 24-hour medical care), to rest and recuperate for the day. If they experience any post-acute withdrawals, they are given transitionary, non-addictive medications. The patient also receives those same medications to take home. If approved by the doctor (at an additional cost), patients can request to have an IV Ketamine infusion.
• (Day 4) — After meeting with Dr. Aharonov, patients are free to go home and eligible for our detox-related aftercare program. With Advanced Rapid Detox, you truly have the best care as you restart your life.

What is Percocet®?

As mentioned above, Percocet® is one of the names under which the opiate based painkiller oxycodone is prescribed by physicians. It is more commonly knock as OxyContin®, but there are other brand names too. It is very effective as an opiate based painkiller and is usually prescribed to help people deal with moderate-to-severe levels of pain. It is considered to be nearly one and a half times as powerful as one of the most well-known opiate based painkillers of them all – morphine.

Just like all opiate based painkillers, Percocet® is derived from an alkaloid known as thebaine which is naturally found as part of the opium poppy. Because of the addictive nature of oxycodone, this opiate is sometimes combined with a substance known as naloxone. Naloxone is added as it has a reputation for reducing the addictiveness of opiates without seriously reducing their painkilling attributes.

While Percocet® is very good at helping people manage pain, its use can cause a number of unpleasant side effects. These include digestive ailments such as nausea, vomiting and constipation, as well as many other undesirable sensations such as dizziness, sweating and fatigue. Overdosing on Percocet® is also possible, especially among those who are using Percocet® for recreational purposes or who have been using the opiate for a lengthy period and do not feel their current doses are working as well as they used to do. Percocet® overdoses are very dangerous, as too much of the opiate can interfere with the respiratory system, causing death.

Long-term use of Percocet® can also cause psychological side effects such as depression and anxiety, the loss of sex drive, a continual loss of appetite and an unremitting sensation of feeling tired.

Understanding Your Dependency

The main purpose of the use of Percocet® is of course to reduce sensations of pain, but like all opiates, it has a secondary effect. This effect is to induce a sense of euphoria within the opiate user’s brain. This is not the same level of euphoria you experience with a dangerous opiate such as heroin, but it is a desirable state of having heightened senses and feeling at peace.

Many users say that they also experience excessive levels of a desire for sleep. The use of Percocet® makes them feel fatigued, so they report that they end up requiring greater amounts of sleep than they had previously needed. The quality of sleep they experience is also more satisfactory, hence sleep to them becomes addictive. If Percocet® users are not able to get as much sleep as they desire, they end up feeling quite irritable.

Once the pain for which Percocet® was originally prescribed for has been dealt with, it is not recommended that anyone should use Percocet® for a lengthy period. However, because of the issue of withdrawing from opiates, many people find themselves ‘trapped’ by their need for this medication. In most cases, Percocet® users say that they need to maintain their opiate use just to feel ‘normal’. Their lives become fixated on their next dose of Percocet®, and they feel anxious and frightened if their medication runs out and they are not able to quickly find more.

Lessening the stranglehold that Percocet® has on your life is not easy, but it is perfectly achievable with the help of our team at Advanced Rapid Detox.
