Oxycontin Detox, Abuse and Treatment in NJ

Oxycontin Detox

Oxycontin, otherwise known as Oxycodone or “Oxy,” is a prescription narcotic that is used to treat moderate to severe pain for an extended period of time. The euphoric effects of Oxycontin have led individuals to seek out the drug and use it for recreational purposes. However, Oxycontin abuse can also occur in individuals with a prescription, when the drug is taken improperly in dosage, length of time, or method of intake (for example, sniffing the drug instead of taking it orally). In 2013, nearly seven million people in the U.S. had used Oxycontin non-medically in their lifetime. The recreational use of Oxycontin can be incredibly dangerous, as the opiate-based drug is very powerful, habit-forming, and addictive. Recovering from Oxycontin abuse requires Oxycontin detox and ongoing treatment.

Detox Treatment in NJ Following Oxycontin Abuse

Oxycontin detox is the process of removing the harmful substance from the body through termination of use. As an addictive drug, Oxycontin detox can be incredibly difficult for individuals. This process requires both psychological abstention from a formerly-held habit, and physical adjustment to life without the familiar substance. Withdrawal symptoms are a common occurrence in detoxification and often discourage individuals from continuing the process. However, when Oxycontin detox is completed under medical supervision, many of these withdrawal symptoms can be addressed through support and medication. Medicine may be administered to offset the physical and emotional effects of withdrawal, such as anxiety and nausea, and encourage the individual to continue recovery. Detox medication and partial care are available to those seeking Oxycontin detox in NJ through GenPsych’s Ambulatory Detox program. For more information on GenPsych’s Ambulatory Detox program, click here.

Treatment in NJ for Oxycontin Abuse following Detox

It is important to recognize that recovery is ongoing and does not end with detox. Oxycontin detox alone is not proven to prevent relapse or resolve all aspects of the addiction. It is often recommended that an individual struggling with Oxycontin abuse seek additional treatment or support following detox. Such treatment may be medical, through medication or counseling, or involve participation in a local support group. These extended treatment options offer insight into the root of addiction and provide the tools necessary to move forward without Oxycontin. Surrounding oneself with counselors and individuals going through similar struggles is also beneficial to the recovery process. If you or someone you know is seeking treatment in NJ for Oxycontin abuse following detox, visit GenPsych’s Substance Abuse program site here.
