What is Heroin and why is it so dangerous?

If you or a loved one is addicted to heroin, you understand the obstacles that it prevents to having a fulfilling life. Heroin is widely considered to be the most addictive drug there is. Heroin abuse is more wide spread than all the other opiate drugs combined..

Heroin is extracted from the seed of poppy plants, and is processed from morphine. Typically heroin is a white powder or more commonly these days "black tar" heroin is becoming more common. The high purity of today's heroin makes it extremely addictive as well as opening the door for addiction that can happen in a very short time frame..

How can we help heroin addicts?

10 years ago heroin was not nearly as potent as it is today. Over the last decade drug suppliers have realized they can get more customers if the heroin is more potent. Because of this potent heroin, people do not realize they are becoming addicted so quickly. When they decide they better slow down on using heroin, they realize that they are in too far and suffer painful withdrawals.

Opiate/heroin addiction withdrawals are known to be the most intense and aggressive withdrawal symptoms of all the drug family. Because of the high discomfort associated with a heroin addict trying to get clean www.executive-recovery.com has spent many man hours and researching dollars on how to get a heroin addict through the withdrawal process as painlessly as possible.

Over the last decade there has been many advances in medicine which allow the opportunity for a heroin addict to get clean with as little discomfort as possible. Here at www.executive-recovery.com we have several methods for easing the pain of withdrawal and getting the addict clean as soon as possible.

One of the great advances in heroin addiction is due to a drug known as buprenorphine or the brand name Suboxone. These drugs are known as anti-opioids. What they do is fill up the opiate receptors in an addict’s brain and take away the addicts craving for opiates/heroin.

Suboxone also have the chemical in it known as Naloxene this chemical will prevent an opiate addict from using opioids and getting high. If an addict was to use opiates while taking Suboxone the Naloxene will prevent the user from getting high or feeling pleasurable effects. This is a powerful tool as addicts know even if they were to use heroin or other opiates, they would not receive the pleasurable feeling that they associate with the drug.

We feel Suboxone is a much greater alternative than methadone and also has a much higher rate of keeping addicts clean then does methadone. When an addict decides it is time to stop taking Suboxone this can be done in a way with little or no withdrawal symptoms.

The other great advantage of Suboxone is the drug is allowed to be administered by a private doctor. You can now deal with your opiate addiction and not have to go to a clinic every day to get your medication that helps you stay clean. In many cases after detox and all withdrawal symptoms are gone the patient is allowed to take his Suboxone pills home and have access to his recovery medication at any time.
