Oxy addiction - anyone heard of the 'rapid detox'

[ochooked]

I have gone on line and seen the term 'Rapid Detox' on several sites.  when calling to check into this, I was told the clinic puts you to sleep for a period of time (depending on how much usuage you have had).  While asleep, they apparently use Narcan to 'instantly' remove the drugs from your receptors.   Then after 2 - 3 days it is all over with and the patient goes home.  This sounds too good to be true so there must be some of you out there who have heard of it and what the real story is.  Thanks for any help you can offer.  I am on Oxycontin and Percocet for a total of 140 mg day of Oxycodone.   I guess the cost is really high also - - $15K for treatment.   Sure would like to hear anyone who has had experience with this or know of someone who has.  Thanks  Oxyhooked

Thanks Avisg;   You really are a God send.   I am trying to gather as much info as possible before starting to come off this stuff.    The thing that scares me the most about Suboxone is that wicked half life.  Judging from what I see on here and the Suboxone site, it appears that if I can come off the subox in a 21 day time frame, I may just be able to beat the W/D's.  Hope someone who has been on it will share what a 21 day treatment with Sub will cost - - also, if anyone was successful in avoiding W/D in that time frame.  Wow!!  That is only three weeks - I suppose it may be too optimistic to think I could get this monkey off my back and be clean in only three weeks.  I will try to keep posting no matter what plan I decide on - - this site is a really good source of information for all those who follow.  Just hope to help them also.  Ochooked

Interesting, that one of the "sponsors" of this method is pasted on the top of these forum posts.
I also wondered if anyone had experience going through this.

there should be several here on the sub. it sounds like you really want this. making a plan is what it takes. good luck to you. be sure to check out the health pages here. it helps to get healthy.

I agree with the 21 day taper I think that is the way to go .

I never talked to anybody who had the UROD procedure who said any thing good about it. It makes docs richer and can really be a bad experience. The 21 day sub taper makes sense for you type of habit.

yea,
i looked into the rapid detox. not a very good track record and yes you still have withdrawl when you go home.

so save yourself the money.

i was willing to pay it if it would work, so i figured if i am going to spend that kind of money , lets have  fun doing it.

quit work for some time-months and was like on vacation which helped tremendously. was able to get things in order. let my back heal up and get a rest from working finally. got a new social life , new friends and stuff.
if you have the money- this was immeasurable, made it so much easier.
lets face it , it is going to take time no matter what you do.
