Our Rapid Tramadol Detox Procedure
When withdrawing from Tramadol (i.e. going ‘cold turkey’) – the mistake most people make is that they attempt to do it without assistance, or with the inexperienced help of their friends and family. While this is typically well-intentioned, the difficulty in withdrawing from this opiate reduces the chance of success.
The best, and fastest way to break the dependency cycle that you have developed for Tramadol is with our rapid Tramadol detox procedure. Dr. Julia Aharonov, a Board-Certified Anesthesiologist & Addiction Medicine Physician has perfected a procedure that safely reverses the Tramadol from the receptors while the patient is under light sedation and under observation throughout the entire withdrawal process. This means you will be sedated when experiencing the physical and psychological sensations of Tramadol withdrawal while the doctor uses medication to reverse the Tramadol from your receptors.
Our Rapid Tramadol Detox Treatment Process is as follows:
DAY 1:
- Patient completes all intake paperwork, lab work, physical exam, meets with the therapist, and then case-planning meeting with Dr. Aharonov.
- During the meeting, the patient can choose to receive either daily oral Naltrexone tablets or choose to private pay for the Vivitrol injection—which lasts for 28 days.
- Next, the patient is taken to their private room which includes a private bathroom, flat screen TV, and WIFI. All meals are included.
- During their stay at Advanced Rapid Detox, 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:
- The patient has their Opiate Reversal Procedure in the ICU, where they remain for approximately 24 hours.
- Their opiate reversal procedure is performed by Dr. Julia Aharonov, an Award-Winning, Board-Certified Anesthesiologist & Addiction Medicine Specialist.
- While under IV sedation, medications are used to reverse the opiates from the brain’s receptors, returning them to their “pre-addiction” state. Patients are NOT intubated or catheterized.
- After the opiate reversal, the patient is provided with the daily oral Naltrexone tablets, or the FDA Approved Vivitrol® injection.
- Both the tablets and the injection, block the effects of opioids and eliminate cravings. It should be noted that the Vivitrol® injection 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. The oral tablets stop cravings for 24 hours, and must be taken daily.
DAY 3:
- Patient rests and recuperates in their private room (with 24-hour medical care.)
- If they experience any post-acute withdrawals (restless legs, chills, etc.) they are given transitionary, non-addictive medications for a few days until the symptoms pass.
- The same medications will be called into patient’s home pharmacy.
- If approved by the doctor and for an additional fee, patients can request an IV Ketamine infusion.
- Ketamine therapy is considered the finding of the decade for unresolved pain, depression, and PTSD.
DAY 4:
- Once discharged by Dr. Aharonov, the patient is free to go home.
- If an additional overnight stay is desired, this can be arranged for an additional fee.
- After discharge, the patient is eligible for our detox-related aftercare program.
- With Advanced Rapid Detox, you truly have the best care as you restart your life.

What is Tramadol?
Tramadol is an opiate-based painkiller that is marketed under brand names such as Ultram, Zytram and many others. When taken in tablet form orally, Tramadol will begin to relieve symptoms of pain within one hour, and the effects of the drug typically last several hours.
Some formulations of Tramadol combine it with the synthetic substance acetaminophen, which is commonly known as paracetamol. This is because paracetamol enhances the abilities of Tramadol as a painkiller.
Tramadol works by inhibiting certain pain responses of the human body, which means that someone taking Tramadol feels reduced levels of pain and discomfort. Tramadol is also naturally converted by the liver into desmetramadol, which is an even more potent opioid.
Common side effects of taking Tramadol include nausea and diarrhea, skin irritation and constipation. Other more serious side effects include seizures, drowsiness and agitation. The use of Tramadol has to be carefully monitored in people who have a history of liver or kidney problems.
It is also not recommended that people who are considered to be a suicide risk, or women who are breastfeeding take Tramadol.
A Tramadol overdose is especially dangerous and doing so can have severe and long-lasting medical consequences. It is estimated that there are well over 20,000 recorded cases of Tramadol overdoses in the United States each year.
Tramadol is a painkiller that is typically prescribed by physicians in the United States and some other countries for the treatment of moderate to severe levels of pain. Tramadol is an opiate and like all opiates – or opioids as they are also known – it is derived from the opium poppy.
As with all opioid-based painkillers Tramadol acts on the opioid receptors that are naturally present in the human body. The effect of taking Tramadol is that it influences a person’s central nervous system and alleviates feelings of pain and discomfort. It also enables a person to feel calm and relaxed.
Over time someone taking Tramadol will become resistant to the effects of the drug, meaning that larger doses have to be taken. This can lead to dependency, making withdrawal from the drug difficult when the initial painful sensations have abated. It is estimated that over three million people in the USA have used Tramadol when it is not strictly needed at some time in their lives.
Understanding Your Dependency
People who use Tramadol over an extended period of time are prone to becoming physically dependent upon the powerful opiate. One of the main reasons for this dependency is the difficulty faced when withdrawing from Tramadol use, as is common with all opiates and opiate-based painkillers. Some physical sensations of withdrawal from Tramadol include numbness, severe skin irritation which leads to excess scratching, tinnitus and a tingling sensation all over the body.
There are a number of psychological issues as well which are generally more difficult to deal with than physical ones. These include hallucinations, extreme anxiety, depression, paranoia, panic attacks and mental confusion.
People tend not to use Tramadol recreationally. This is because the negative effects that Tramadol can have – particularly dizziness, nausea, risk of convulsions and loss of appetite – are not considered desirable in comparison to the limited ‘highs’ that the drug can give. This means that most people who end up dependent upon Tramadol have done so via their first experience of the drug as a prescribed painkiller.
When withdrawing from Tramadol the withdrawal symptoms begin to kick in within twelve hours of the final dose of the drug. ‘Cold Turkey’ withdrawal from Tramadol takes longer than most other opiates – seven days or so when compared to the three or four days associated with other opiates. Withdrawal symptoms that come with Tramadol are usually felt more acutely too, which is another reason for the opiate’s lack of appeal as a recreational drug.
