Vicodin Abuse, Detox and Treatment

Vicodin Detox, Abuse and Treatment in NJ

Like Percocet, Vicodin is a prescription medication, which combines an opiate (hydrocodone) with acetaminophen (found in aspirins such as Tylenol) in order to alleviate pain. In addition to preventing pain, Vicodin also produces a euphoric effect, making it both susceptible to abuse and highly addictive. Individuals who take Vicodin recreationally often build a tolerance to the drug, and over time will require higher and more frequent doses to produce their desired effect. Vicodin is among the most prescribed pain medications in the U.S., and Vicodin abuse affects more than 20 million individuals nationwide. Vicodin Detox and treatment for abuse are the most successful methods of breaking this addiction.

Detox Treatment in NJ Following Vicodin Abuse

Detox treatment, or detoxification, is the body’s process of eliminating a harmful substance. In order to proceed with Vicodin detox following abuse, an individual must abstain from taking the drug altogether. Because Vicodin is highly addictive and habit forming, terminating this behavior can often be a difficult process both mentally and physically. Individuals should seek medical supervision when undergoing detox to ensure that it is done in the most effective, safe, and painless way. The support of trained professionals is often crucial to the success of detoxification, as is the prescription of medication to help offset the symptoms of withdrawal. Detox treatment following Vicodin abuse may take several weeks, although additional rehabilitation is recommended for at least one month after. Various options are available to those seeking detox from Vicodin abuse. GenPsych, PC offers an Ambulatory Detox program to individuals in NJ, which provides transportation, care, and other resources to individuals struggling with drug addiction.

Treatment in NJ for Vicodin Abuse following Detox

As mentioned, continued treatment for Vicodin abuse following detox is always recommended. Without proper rehabilitation, many individuals experience immediate relapse. This is because detox cleanses the body, but does not always address the individual’s behavior and psychological needs. Many drug addictions are the result of other mental health issues, which can be better understood by continued medical care. This professional help and support, combined with ongoing medication, is most effective in helping an individual to recover from their addiction. Treatment will provide an individual with the skills and knowledge to stay clean and pursue a healthy, addiction-free life.
