Rapid Detox
Drug and alcohol detoxification has long been accepted as an essential, although often difficult, first step toward recovery from addiction. In the absence of professional medical assistance, most will fail in an attempt to free themselves from the grip of drug and/or alcohol addiction. Successful detoxification is essential before long-term recovery can begin.Detox is not a “cure” for addiction. Detoxification is the first step in the process of engaging oneself in rehabilitation. Designed to reduce withdrawal symptoms for individuals dependent on Heroin, Methadone, Oxycontin, Opium, Percocet, Percodan, or Codeine, anesthesia-assisted opiate detoxification allows for engagement in a variety of aftercare programs aimed at placing drug addiction into remission.

What is a Medical Detox?
Medical detox is a medication-assisted withdrawal protocol designed to specifically assist and stem the seemingly overwhelming pain and medical problems that are associated with the sudden decline of intake of the substance in question.Will the Detox process be painful?
Coming down or withdrawing from drugs or alcohol can be associated with being sick and having painful muscle cramps, uncontrollable anxiety, sleeplessness, seizures, and even death in some rare cases. With a medically supervised detox or medicated withdrawal, the symptoms that are associated with detox are alleviated and, in some cases, completely pain and symptom-free during their stay. In most cases, you will feel minimum withdrawal symptoms while in medical detox.
Purpose of Rapid Detox
The purpose of Rapid Detox is simple: to reduce, minimize, or eliminate altogether the signs and symptoms associated with opiate withdrawal. This decreases the chances of relapse and increases the likelihood of a full recovery. Rapid Detox is not intended to replace a fully comprehensive treatment and recovery program. It is simply “a ‘procedure’ designed to help an individual tolerate the withdrawal symptoms from opiates with much greater comfort.”Anesthesia-Assisted Rapid Opioid Detox (AAROD)
“Anesthesia Assisted Opiate Detoxification” is the first step, representing only the beginning of a long process of healing and recovery. Once an individual is ‘clean’ of opiates, it is always recommended that they make some form of counseling their next step in the recovery process. Aftercare is a paramount component of the recovery process! Anesthesia Rapid Detox procedure or Ultra Rapid Detox (AAROD), sometimes known as (UROD), is a fast detox alternative to rapidly detox the body from opiates in 6 hours or less. (AAROD) is done under anesthesia and is done under the strict medical care of a doctor, anesthesiologist, and a nurse. The staff is trained and certified in the AAROD procedures, so the client can be assured that their detox will be safe and effective. The latest technology is utilized to ensure that the procedure is done effectively and safely.Anesthesia Rapid Detox Procedure
When you arrive at the detox center, you will be met by the licensed anesthesiologist and nurse to discuss and prepare you for the procedure. The patient is then put into a medically induced deep sleep for 6 hours, and the detox protocol process starts. Once under general anesthesia and deep sedation, the opiate antagonist is administered as a strict formula of medications specifically designed to flush out the patient’s opiate receptors. At least two nurses will be present during the entire procedure. They monitor the patient’s vitals and make sure that the procedure is flawless in its execution. Once the procedure is complete, the patient usually stays for 24-48 hours for observation and monitoring to make sure that the detox is successful.AAROD has been used for over 10 years and is now becoming more mainstream for detox procedures. The length of stay at an AAROD detox facility is usually 48 hours, and the length of stay at a normal opiate detox is 5-10 days, depending on the usage. After detox is completed, it is highly recommended that a follow-up treatment plan is in place to handle the issues that are still not handled, even though you feel great. Rapid detox or AAROD is in no way an addiction treatment, it just handles the physical manifestations that are associated with withdrawal from opiates.
