Rapid Opans Detox under sedation is a medical detoxification treatment offered by All Opiates Detox for patients dependent on the opiates. Rapid opiate detox consists of sedating the patient and removing Opiates from the brain receptor while the patient is sleeping. Acute withdrawals are precipitated with an opiate blocker. These withdrawals will pass during the sedation period. Once the withdrawals are over, and the brain receptors are free of the opiate, a blocker is placed to prevent any opiates from getting back into the brain receptor.
The blocker of choice used at All Opiates Detox is an implant. Dr. George prefers the Naltrexone implant blocker for several reasons. First, the Naltrexone implant lasts approximately two months, as opposed to Vivitrol (lasts about 28 days) or tablets (have to be taken daily). Another reason our physicians prefer the implant over the injection is for patients that may not be able to tolerate Naltrexone due to side effects, sensitivity or allergies. The implant can be removed from under the skin, whereas the injection stays in the body for about 28 days and therefore cannot be removed once it is administered. It is recommended to stay on Naltrexone maintenance therapy for at least one year to allow the brain to heal from the damage caused by the drug use and abuse.
Aftercare consisting of the Naltrexone opiate blocker, psychotherapy, and 12 step programs are recommended to ensure long-term abstinence and success.

Opana DETAILS
Opana (generic name Oxymorphone) is an opiate that was used to treat moderate to severe pain. Opana was taken off the market and is no longer available as of July 2017 since it was highly abused and misused. The reformulation in 2012 led to a shift in the route of abuse from nasal to injection. It was available in IR (immediate release for as-needed dosing for pain) and ER (extended release for around the clock dosing).
Opana typically started working in 20-40 minutes, with maximum effect at about two hours and duration of action lasted four to six hours. The extended-release, Opana ER, started working 60-90 minutes after administration. The total period of the ER, extended release, lasted about twelve hours. Opana was classified as a Schedule II controlled substance due to its capacity for dependence, abuse, and misuse.
Opana SIDE EFFECTS
Common side effects include constipation, drowsiness, dry mouth, nausea, vomiting, lightheadedness, and drowsiness. Serious side effects may include difficulty breathing and respiratory depression.
Opana WITHDRAWALS
Physical symptoms of Opana withdrawal include diarrhea, headaches, insomnia, muscle aches, nausea, restless legs, sweating, and vomiting.
Opana OVERDOSE
Symptoms of overdose include mental status changes such as fatigue, drowsiness, and confusion, apnea, slow heart rate, cold and clammy skin, respiratory depression, bluish fingertips and lips, unresponsiveness, sleepiness leading to coma, cardiac arrest or death.
Opana ABUSE
Opana was taken off the market in July 2017 due to its highly abused and misused capabilities. Opana was abused nasally and then abused by injection following the reformulation in 2012. It was the first time in US history that the FDA requested an opiate be taken off the market due to abuse.
Improper use and abuse of Opana by many led to dependence, tolerance, and addiction. Opana was habit-forming, causing not only physical but also psychological dependence. Withdrawals would occur if the dose of the Opana was reduced or discontinued after long-term use. Using opiates for an extended period can lead to tolerance, where the user needs to increase the dosage of their drugs to achieve the desired effect, whether the desired result is pain control or euphoria.
Once the patient developed a tolerance, it became even more difficult to stop using Opana due to the withdrawals. Symptoms of withdrawals were an indication of physical dependence and addiction to the Opana. Most patients described withdrawals as the worst, most frightening experience one will ever encounter. One can only imagine the excruciating pain when the opiate user says that they’d rather die than go through the withdrawals. Opana physical dependence symptoms, such as withdrawals, led to psychological dependence.
