Vicodin addiction destroys healthy lives.
Is it destroying yours, or that of
someone you love? Thousands of our patients started out taking Vicodin for
pain management and ended up instead with an addiction to Vicodin.
Opiate
dependency affects people from all walks of life, regardless of their
social or economic status. Others like yourself—not
just high-profile celebrities—have developed an opiate
or Vicodin dependency.
Many now seek detoxification from
addiction to these opiate-based
drugs.
The brand name drug Vicodin® -- like many others--combines
acetaminophen (Tylenol®) and hydrocodone.
This creates a morphine-like narcotic analgesic. Acetaminophen blocks
agents that cause bodily pain. Hydrocodone deadens the brain’s
sensation of pain. Chronic consumption of Vicodin over months may cause
a Vicodin addiction, even though your physician initially prescribed
it to moderate mid to severe pain.
Remember, Vicodin is an
opiate drug—made from the same
chemical base as heroin!
Dependency starts with an accidental
injury or debilitating disease that requires surgery or treatment
followed by pain medication. It ends with an excruciating dependency
on the medicine intended to help relieve the pain. Prescription Vicodin
has fast become the addicted patient’s drug of choice due to
its potency and easy availability.
Many doctors find the question
of painkiller addition too awkward to talk about with patients—even
if they suspect non-medical use or abuse.
Waismann listens, and acts. Individuals with a Vicodin addiction
who muster the courage to follow a rapid-detox program can break
out of the prison caused by their overuse.
Many or our
patients started out treating their head, neck, back, migraine,
or other musculoskeletal pain at normal medication doses. Eventually,
they began self-medicating at high levels to avoid the pain of withdrawal.
People with Vicodin
dependency may not always engage in the same behavior
as ‘drug addicts. But they do experience the same symptoms
of withdrawal:
- Aching limbs
- Cascading body aches
- Cold sweats
- Distress, anxiety, and panic
- Nausea and vomiting
- Severe depression
- Unbearable pain
- Uncontrollable diarrhea
Vicodin dependency
has turned many back surgery and chronic pain patients into ‘accidental
addicts’. They did not plan to pursue addiction, but instead
gradually ended up with a physical dependency to Vicodin®.
Just as dependency can happen with any other narcotic prescription
medication.
Other addictive prescription painkillers include
Anexsia®, Anolor DH5,
Bancap HC, Darvocet®,
Dolacet, Dolorex Forte, Hycet, Hycodan®, Hycomine®, Hydro,
Liquicet, Lorazapam®, Lorcet®, Lortab®,
Maxidone, Norco®,
OxyContin®, Percocet®,
Stagesic, T-Gesic, Tramacet, Tramadol®,
Tussionex®, Tylox®, Vadunk, Vicoprofen®, Xodol, and Zydone®,
among others.
Our base of international clients know that the Waismann Method
of rapid detoxification provides
a humane treatment to individuals physically dependent on Vicodin® and
