Percodan Addiction
Percodan
detox is treatment for addiction to the prescription
painkiller Percodan®, which is the brand name for the combination of
acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) and oxycodone. Percodan® works this way:
its oxycodone component binds to the pain receptors in the brain so that
the sensation of pain is reduced, while acetylsalicylic acid in the formula
halts the production of prostaglandins which otherwise cause pain.
Percodan®, which is prescribed for moderate to moderately severe pain,
is available in tablet, capsule, and liquid form and is taken every 6 hours
by mouth. Care must be taken to follow the doctor's instructions, as Percodan
addiction can happen easily. Oxycodone can be habit forming and Percodan
addiction can occur from taking a larger dose, or take it more frequently,
or for longer than the doctor has prescribed.
Percodan Detox
Since Oxycodone’s FDA approval in 1995, the illegal
use of painkillers such as Percodan® has increased significantly. Percodan
detox can be difficult because the drug falls into the opiate category
(naturally occurring constituents of opium), causing both mental and physical
addiction. Opiates travel rapidly through the bloodstream to the brain, where
they stimulate opiate receptors, triggering intense feelings of pleasure
and reward. This quick high is followed a state of relaxation and contentment
that lasts for several hours. Concurrently, opiates act directly on the respiratory
center in the brainstem, causing a decrease in the breathing rate of the
user. When Percodan® and/or other opiate-derivative drugs are not used
correctly, this breathing slow-down can be dangerous and even fatal.
Percodan detox methods traditionally have focused on talk therapy, the
psychological aspects of addiction and treatment for the often unbearable
symptoms of withdrawal. The rate of Percoet detox success with traditional
methods, however, has been low.
A newer and quicker method of Percodan detox is Accelerated Neuro-Regulation
(ANR), a rapid drug treatment that is being used with increasing success
for opiate dependency. ANR (formerly rapid detox), also known as the Waismann
Methodsm, treats Percodan addiction as a physical disease
that can be overcome with advanced medical techniques. ANR eliminates the
cravings that often accompany traditional opiate detox treatments. The Waismann
Methodsm
of Percodan detox has been clinically proven to be effective for Percodan
addiction. In fact, ANR clinics have reported success rates of nearly
64% in treating a variety of opiate addictions, including Percodan addiction.
