Dont underestimate the time element. These people are all so correct.......its not something that gets done in a couple days. It may be a week before you can get out of bed. And psychologists say that it takes a full month to change a habit - - that is frequently cited as the reason for 30 day rehabs.  You can do this at home -  - but you need to do a lot of homework first........people here will help you

Hi...detoxing in a weekend...wish I would have known that you could do that :-).  Seriously, a plan for 5-10 days for detoxing from opiates (physical part) is something she should be prepared for.  The Thomas Recipe (search for this) and the Amino Acid Protocol will definitely help.

Good Luck

you dont actually detox from Heroin in a weekend. If it were me, I would try to have atleast this:

Clonidine
loperamide
Klonopin
Phenergan

Good Luck
