Antagonists are also used ...

Like we should not try to end the drug is useless to replace the drug with alcohol. Do not try to "jump" from one drug with another. Unsuccessful attempts to get rid of drug addiction, reducing the "dose". Treatment of physical dependence Traditional Therapy in Drug Treatment Drug treatment hospital hospitals exist in all regional and many regional centers. All of them are closed, and the patient has given prior consent to treatment, will be able to get out of such an institution unless authorized by the treating physician. In Addiction apply a wide range of means weakening the "breaking": tranquilizers (relieve tension, fear), analgesics, hypnotics, neuroleptics (antipsychotics), antidepressants, nootropic drugs (improves brain function), vitamins, etc. are used as opiate antagonists (naloxone and naltrexone). In addition to drug therapy in substance abuse hospitals additionally used physiotherapeutic methods: electrosleep, anode galvanization liver transcerebral electrophoresis of various drugs, hydrotherapy, physical education. An important aspect of treatment is to restore damaged brain function and development of the patient's real understanding of their disease. However, there are also but: isolation of drug in the drug treatment clinic is often conditional (if desired drug can be bought there), most of the drugs negative effects on the liver, whose function in patients with drug addiction and so badly broken, "individuality" of approaches to treatment is very formal. And yet this is a real and affordable way to treat addiction. Extracorporeal detoxification procedures This group includes hemosorption, likvorosorbtsiyu and plasmapheresis, whose task - as soon as possible to remove circulating in the blood of drugs and products of their transformation and disintegration. When hemosorption taken from the patient's blood is passed through the sorbent, in which are harmful substances. A similar procedure can be done with liquor (cerebrospinal fluid), which contains the same toxic substances as blood. Purified toxins from the blood or spinal fluid transfusion patient. When plasmapheresis toxins are removed, along with plasma and blood cells are returned to the body, replacing the plasma with sterile saline. All these procedures are carried out only in the clinic. Method is very effective in treating patients in late-stage disease, with liver failure, septic conditions. In the case of an overdose of reducing drug in the blood by means of "purification" saves the life of the patient. Extracorporeal detoxification can be used as a standalone method or anticipate any other course of treatment. Treatment for psychological dependence (psychotherapeutic methods) convinces a man to end the abuse in the period of "breaking" is useless. Psychotherapeutic techniques are applied after the removal of acute manifestations of withdrawal syndrome, and ideally also used later to warn relapse.
