A recent study from JAMA shows the dangers:

"But the technique can be life-threatening, is not pain-free and has no advantage over other methods, a new study of 106 patients found.

The study, the most rigorous to date on the method, showed that patients' withdrawal was as severe as those of addicts undergoing other detox approaches.

The study appears in Wednesday's Journal of the American Medical Association.

Patients underwent withdrawal when they awoke, even though they were given additional medications for withdrawal symptoms that included anxiety, insomnia, achy muscles and joints, diarrhea and vomiting.

Three of 35 anesthesia patients suffered life-threatening events, despite painstaking safety measures.”

Rapid Detox Treatment Claims

Rapid Detox Treatment also known as Ultra Rapid Detox Treatment is way of detoxifying a person addicted to heroin or opiates in a concentrated period of 10 hours time, normally this can take up 5 to 6 days, without the discomfort linked to opiate withdrawal.

Patients can suffer extremely difficult withdrawals for 5 to 6 days when trying to quit opiate drugs they are dependent upon, such as heroin. Without the help of medication many fail to make it through the seemingly impossible withdrawal period causing patients to give up.

Rapid Detoxification also known as Ultra Rapid Detoxification is usually completed in one day. The patient is placed under general anesthesia for 4 to 6 hours at which time the patient will receive intravenous naloxone, medication that eliminates opiates from the body very quickly.

Apparently, once awake the patient is then free from opiates and ready to return to normal life in a couple of days. Then there is a claim that over 65 percent of the patients who are treated remain drug free after one year.
