Inpatient Percocet Detox Toms River
Percocet is the brand name for the drug combination of Oxycodone and Paracetamol, an opioid and acetaminophen respectively, and it is one of the most commonly prescribed drugs in the US for the treatment of pain. Percocet is a highly addictive drug, and in 2019 alone, over 11 million prescriptions of Percocet were registered. The risks of Percocet addiction, can lead to overdose and death.
Percocet Medical Detox
Percocet dependency often leads the way to the use of stronger drugs like Oxycodone and OxyContin, heroin, or morphine. The withdrawals from Percocet addiction are not life threatening, but they are uncomfortable, and can cause an individual who wants to overcome Percocet addiction, fear the detox process if he or she is trying to do it on their own. Sunrise Detox Toms River provides our clients the opportunity to work with a trained staff of medical professionals who will help the patient safely detox from Percocet. Percocet medical detox may involve the use of replacement medications such as buprenorphine, while a dosage reduction schedule is put in place, and non-addictive, over the counter medications are introduced to ease pain and nausea symptoms.
Percocet Withdrawal
The withdrawal symptoms of Percocet kick in a few hours after the body metabolizes the last dose and they are similar to the withdrawal symptoms of other opioids. These symptoms can include sweating, runny nose, aches and pains, dilated pupils, shivering, and chills. These physical symptoms increase in strength during the first 36 hours, and peak in 2 or 3 days. The Toms River Sunrise Detox facility provides supervised medical detox from Percocet as the most effective method to successfully help people overcome Percocet addiction and addiction to other opioids.
