What is Rapid Detox?

Rapid detox is a medical treatment that can help individuals quickly overcome opioid dependence. The process, developed in the 1970s, uses antagonist medication and sedation to accelerate the elimination of opioids from the body. This allows individuals to begin the recovery process without experiencing intense withdrawal symptoms. Rapid detox is a safe and effective way for those struggling with opioid use to break free from their addiction and work towards lasting sobriety. It is important to note that many centers may claim to offer unique treatments, but the use of antagonist drugs combined with sedation defines the process as “rapid detox.”

Rapid opioid detox is an incredibly effective medical procedure that can provide an individual with the opportunity for powerful and immediate recovery. This procedure helps individuals detox from opiates quickly and safely by:

Eliminating acute withdrawal symptoms
Blocking receptors to eliminate physical cravings,
Allowing for rapid recovery of the nervous system. By instantly starting to produce endorphins, the individual can experience a faster recovery process which may finally give them the hope they need to believe in proper healing.

This breakthrough method provides multiple advantages over traditional detoxification methods and opens up exciting possibilities for those seeking an effective way to overcome opioid addiction.

How Fast Is Rapid Opiate Detox?

Rapid detoxification has revolutionized the path to recovery- so much that many patients can expect a substantially shorter detox time than other methods. With Waismann Method Rapid Detox’s leading medical protocols and professional teams of doctors by your side, you have a better chance than ever to secure an effective and speedy return to health.

Rapid detoxification is a powerful tool for those seeking successful recovery from opioid addiction. However, the necessary length of inpatient care will vary depending on each individual’s needs and should be discussed with medical professionals beforehand. Several factors, such as usage duration, dosage levels, health history, and type of opioids used, can all contribute to determining an appropriate treatment timeline, usually ranging between 5-10 days when provided by seasoned board-certified anesthesiologists within accredited hospitals or facilities. To ensure effective outcomes while promoting safety first, you must clarify these critical details before engaging in any rapid opiate withdrawal program.

Is One Day Detox Possible?

Despite what you may read online, completely reversing an opioid use disorder in one day isn’t possible. Opioid use disorder affects every organ and function in your body. Patients deserve proper time for inpatient evaluation and post-care during the adjustment phase. Responsible treatment requires more than an overnight stay; sending patients to a hotel the day after sedation detox is dangerous and irresponsible.
Any claims of a miracle cure should be viewed with extreme caution – false promises only impede actual progress for those struggling with OUD. Everyone needs to stay informed about the realities of addiction so as not to get misled by misconceptions or marketing gimmicks designed to exploit desperate people.

Naltrexone and Vivitrol Therapy

Patients who have successfully undergone opioid detoxification can choose between Vivitrol and Naltrexone for craving control.

Naltrexone and Vivitrol are non-narcotic, non-opioid, and, more importantly, non-addictive antagonist medications. Both medications help greatly in subsiding physical cravings after detoxification. Cravings are one of the main reasons why patients relapse after the procedure. Managing physical cravings without addiction risks gives patients a better chance of sustaining recovery.

How Does Rapid Detox Work?

Five to Ten-Day All-Inclusive Services

We receive patients from all over the world in our exclusive location in Southern California. Usually, there is no need to make arrangements for a companion, transportation, or lodging, as we will provide these services from your time of admission.

**Rapid Detox Protocol can change based on a patient’s unique health needs.

Day 1: The patient is admitted to a private room at a JCAHO-accredited hospital.
- Medications are given to prevent withdrawal and stabilize physiological functions.
- A comprehensive physical examination is performed based on individual health needs. This precautionary measure is critical to ensure that the patient is healthy enough to undergo rapid detoxification safely. Evaluation can include a physical examination, cardiac evaluation, lung function assessment, and appropriate laboratory tests.
Day 2: The patient is transferred to their ICU unit room.
- Our quadruple board-certified medical director personally performs “all” rapid detox procedures, one patient at a time.
- The patient remains in the ICU for continued medical care and observation through the regulation period.
Day 3: Introduction of non-addictive medication, Naltrexone or Vivitrol, to eliminate physical cravings.

Who created the Waismann Method?

How to Find the Best Rapid Opioid Detoxification Center?

There are a few key factors to consider when searching for the best rapid detox program. For one, the treatment facility must offer adequate time for in-patient care in a JCAHO-accredited hospital. This means that a higher level of in-patient care is provided before, during, and post sedation-assisted detox.

Another important consideration is having multiple options for detoxification. Not all patients are appropriate candidates for treatment under sedation. Having additional options to medically assist to ease withdrawal symptoms and make the detox process more comfortable is crucial for the success and safety of patients.

Finally, choosing a rapid opiate detox center with a long history of success is crucial. The staff should have qualifications and certifications from known institutions, experience, and tools to provide successful treatment outcomes.

Exclusively located in Orange County, Southern California, the Waismann Method Medical Group provides solutions to patients suffering from Opioid Use Disorder worldwide. Unlike other less adequate, less-experienced facilities, we do not promise overnight miracles. Instead, we provide the safest, most effective, and most comprehensive medical opioid detoxification.

Testimonials

Rapid Detox History

The history of rapid detox started with the first scientist to investigate the idea of an accelerated detox under anesthesia, Richard B. Resnick MD, who, in 1977, published a paper detailing the first procedures using Naloxone and clonidine. Shortly afterward, physicians began discussing anesthesia to reduce discomfort during opioid withdrawal. In the ’80s, Norbert Loimer, MD, Ph.D., published a paper outlining opiate detoxification’s success under general anesthesia. These two early research from these brilliant scientists are the foundation for all forms of today’s detoxification under sedation. While physicians’ protocols have significantly differed over the years, they still adhere to the principles described in these early publications.

Today, many variations of detoxification under anesthesia have been proven successful in helping people overcome addiction to opiates. Those struggling to get through opioid withdrawal should consider this a powerful tool. Rapid Opioid Detox offers hope for a new beginning and a chance to start over again with a clean slate.

What is the Waismann Method Rapid Detox?

Waismann Method Rapid Detox provides superior care to most detoxification under sedation programs. In other words, we combine comprehensive medical evaluations in an accredited hospital by a multi-board-certified physician with a quarter of a decade of experience. Additionally, in our exclusive retreat, Waismann Method patients receive in-patient professional recovery care for a few days.

What does that mean? It means our priority is your safety and comfort. At the Waismann Detox, we do not cut corners by admitting you on the day of the procedure because we are unaware of your current health conditions or any substances in your system. Most drugs bought on the streets are adulterated, and even over-the-counter substances can have adverse effects when combined with medications used during rapid detox. We also don’t discharge you to a hotel room and expect your loved one to assist you while your metabolism is learning to function without opiates. Every patient is different, and so is their body. How fast patients stabilize after treatment depends on factors such as age, health, length of time using drugs, type of drugs used, and even emotional health.

*Centers that promise overnight miracles or the same successful results to all patients are misleading, irresponsible, and conceivably dangerous.

Is Rapid Detox Safe?

Use caution when seeking a rapid detox center. It is important to remember that not all facilities follow adequate safety protocols, and some might even try cutting costs by providing unrealistic overnight promises. Other centers offer detox in surgical centers where immediate and necessary medical resources are unavailable.

Rapid opiate detox is safe and successful when performed in a full-service hospital by an experienced board-certified M.D. Only an accredited hospital can provide different specialists for consultation and immediate emergency care. Generally speaking, this extensive availability of resources provides a much safer, more comfortable, and more effective opioid detox process.

Rapid Detox Center Differences, Risk, and Benefits

One of the safest and most successful treatment options for someone suffering from opioid use disorder is a medically assisted detox, but only when the provider is responsible, honest, and experienced.

Safety Protocol:

Hospital admission should be at least a day before treatment under anesthesia.

This extra time allows doctors to gather the information they need to achieve safer and more comfortable detoxification. Furthermore, knowing what patients ingest within the last day before the procedure is critical. Certain foods, medications, or other substances can adversely interact with medicines during drug detox. Additionally, all patients respond differently to key medications, and knowing your unique response allows the treating physician to better plan what and how much to use while under sedation. Most importantly, patients need a comprehensive medical evaluation to ensure the procedure’s candidacy and safety.

The Importance of a private hospital room.

Studies show that patients receive better care in a private hospital room, recover faster, and are less susceptible to disease transmission. Furthermore, they are less likely to receive incorrect medication or suffer from medical errors because they were confused with a roommate. Also, privacy allows patients to sleep better, which helps heal and maintain better spirits.

Other drug detoxification treatment options should be available for those not candidates for rapid detox.

Not all patients are candidates for rapid detoxification or sedation-assisted detox. When a second option is unavailable, doctors and patients might push the boundaries further than they should.

There is no need for more than a couple of hours under sedation to achieve successful rapid detoxification.

In the ’90s, detoxification under sedation would last 4 to 6 hours. After almost 30 years, the process has evolved. Doctors understand that the longer the patient is under anesthetics, the more risks and side effects the patient might have. When experienced anesthesiologists perform rapid detox, the process should not take more than a couple of hours. Procedures lasting 3 hours or more hours are antiquated and carry more risks.

Unsubstantiated and false claims, such as “promises of achieving a pre-addiction state ” in a couple of days, are misleading and dangerous.

Promises of overnight regulation or, even worse, promises of miraculously returning to a pre-addiction state are false sales pitches that the proper authorities should reprimand. The central nervous system (CNS) constantly regulates itself to adapt to new conditions. The speed and totality of this process are based on several factors and are unique to each patient.

Clinician knowledge of the neurobiological foundation of opioid dependence, honesty, and information-sharing with patients, provides better outcomes and met expectations.

No quality of character is more rooted in medicine than honesty and humility—when a doctor admits the extent of what he can and cannot provide a patient, a safer and more effective solution is achieved.

Verify the license, credentials, and experience of the treating physician

Many doctors do not have the experience or knowledge to manage detoxification under sedation safely. Others make overinflated and unsubstantiated claims of experience and success.

That is why it is crucial to have a valid USA medical license. A license indicates a physician has met minimum requirements for the undifferentiated practice of medicine. At the same time, board certification means that a physician has gone beyond primary training and demonstrates proficiency in a particular specialty. Doctors with licenses, certifications, and credentials from well-known American institutions assure patients that they will receive the highest level of care from physicians who have undergone the most rigorous scrutiny regarding their ability to practice medicine.

When it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.

There are no miracles in medicine, and you will not be the first one to receive such unfounded claims. As fast as opioid detox under sedation is, this process is not an overnight cure. The procedure is extremely safe when the doctors have ample time to evaluate, stabilize and treat the patient before, during, and post-detox.

After rapid detoxification, patients’ metabolism needs to adapt and find a new baseline. This adjustment period affects your sleep, mood, blood pressure, fluid retention, and other essential functions. Discharging patients to a hotel immediately after detox treatment with a family member is irresponsible. More profitable for the provider but riskier and more uncomfortable for the patient and caregiver.
