Vicodin Rehab

Vicodin is an opioid-based medication most often prescribed for pain management. As effective as it is in relieving pain, Vicodin is also a very addictive drug, as are all opiate prescription painkillers. A few weeks of use are enough to develop a hefty dependence in anyone who takes the drug, even if they follow the prescription exactly as the doctor orders. It's no one's fault, but too often the burden falls upon the patient to figure out how to disentangle herself from the addiction. The withdrawal symptoms that accompany the process of Vicodin detox are a weighty deterrent, and it is often impossible to quit without the assistance of medical professionals. The best way to break an addiction to Vicodin once and for all is to enroll in a Vicodin rehab like Orchid Recovery Center that provides both detox and treatment for addiction.

Types of Vicodin Rehab

Because everyone is different, every addiction is different and so therefore should every experience at a drug addiction rehab facility be different. Vicodin rehab, because it attends to an opioid addiction, requires that a detox center be in place for the first stages of treatment. There are a few types of Vicodin rehabs, some of which provide only this detox service, others that require you to be completely detoxed before you enter and others which offer both detox and addiction treatment services.

At Orchid Recovery Center, we are a Vicodin rehab that offers a comprehensive treatment starting with a thorough detox to rid you of the immediate and overwhelming withdrawal symptoms and then move you into treatment with a community of other women undergoing the same process.

How to Know if You or Someone You Love Needs Vicodin Rehab

Addiction to Vicodin is characterized by physical dependence upon the drug, and this is more in evidence when you stop taking the drug than while you are taking it. If you lower your dose significantly or try to stop taking Vicodin, you will begin to feel the effects physically within four to six hours of your missed dose. These effects are called withdrawal symptoms and they can include:

• Restlessness and insomnia
• Muscle pain and bone pain
• Stomach cramps and diarrhea
• Nausea and vomiting
• Chills and sweating
• Runny nose and watery eyes

A general feeling of malaise combined with the aches of a serious flu and incredible depression and anxiety grow until they peak about 72 hours after they begin. They may linger for a week or more before beginning to slowly subside. In some cases, when there are co-occurring medical conditions present, withdrawal from Vicodin can be fatal. For this reason and for the increased success of the endeavor, Vicodin rehab is a necessity for anyone who is physically dependent upon the drug.

What to Expect at Vicodin Rehab

The first stage of Vicodin rehab is solely focused on your physical health. When you are through with your Vicodin detox, you can move onto a comprehensive Vicodin treatment that still addresses the physical but expands to include a variety of multi-faceted therapies that attend to other areas vital to recovery like spirituality and mental and emotional health. Throughout your treatment, you will have weekly meetings one-on-one to check in and make sure that your treatment plan is crafted to suit your needs. When you finish treatment, you have the option for aftercare, outpatient care or sober living depending upon your circumstance.
