New ‘Executive Alcohol/Opiate Detox’ Attracts Celebrities to Palm Beach

Throughout course of treatment, patient’s physical and psychological progress is monitored daily by a team of addiction specialists. Bevell adds, “This safe and carefully controlled program may allow patients to return to their daily schedules within 2 or 3 days, and is a much safer alternative to the Rapid Detox Programs being offered.”

After detox, patient returns home, to work or to his or her studies. Although consideration of further treatment options is recommended, hospitalization or confinement to a rehab facility is not strictly necessary.

According to the initiators of this new curative method, recurrence rates are minimal, and that is important because recurrence is the greatest obstacle detoxification treatments have encountered so far.

The new methodology is even applied, with some variations, for conquering addiction to Methadone, a drug used in treating addictions.

 

Dr. Agresti explains: “Treatment for Methadone is different than our standard treatment for conventional opiate dependency. Methadone poses additional problems and the course of treatment is longer. But the good news is we can help. Here’s how it works. Utilizing a medical protocol called Rapid Receptor TransitionTM (RRT), the doctor will safely and comfortably switch your medications, monitoring your progress daily. After 7 days, when Methadone is out of your system you will be switched over to Buprenorphine. You may return home. Where you can follow up with an outpatient provider who will wean you off the Buprenorphine over the next 4 to 6 weeks.  You may go back to work, your studies, or daily chores immediately. You will have energy. You will no longer crave Methadone or opiates.”
