Roxanol Withdrawal and Detox
Roxanol withdrawal and detox is the subject of this Special Report by Siobahn Morse, the executive director of The National Institute For Holistic Addiction Studies.
What is Roxanol?
Roxanol belongs to a class of drugs called opioid pain relievers. An opioid is sometimes called a narcotic.
Roxanol is used to treat moderate to severe pain.
What is Roxanol withdrawal?
Roxanol addiction is typically fueled by the constant need to get more of the drug to prevent going into withdrawal.
Roxanol withdrawal occurs because the individual, whether legitimately prescribed the drug or abusing it, illicitly develops a mental and a physical dependence to the drug over time.
When they stop using Roxanol, they begin to experience the uncomfortable and painful response that the body goes through as a result.
They will have strong cravings from Roxanol, and withdrawal symptoms can be very similar to those experienced in heroin withdrawal.
What are the withdrawal symptoms of Roxanol?
The withdrawal symptoms of Roxanol include aches and pains, anxiety, flu-like symptoms, diarrhea, hallucinations, mood swings, pain, and upper respiratory problems.
What is Roxanol detox?
Treatment for Roxanol addiction is similar to treating other opioid addictions.
Admission to a medically supervised detox clinic will help the user manage the negative withdrawal symptoms.
In order to minimize these effects it is recommended to gradually reduce the use of Roxanol with the help of a health care professional.
Indeed, once the acute effects of withdrawal are under control, the focus of Roxanol addiction treatment shifts to helping the patient overcome future temptation and addressing pressing physical, lifestyle and emotional issues.
