Tramadol addiction occurs when illicit overuse of the painkiller tramadol begins.
Unable to find enough physicians to write out prescriptions, patients with tramadol addiction turn to the Internet to obtain their supply.
- One sign of dependency is relying on medication from more than one, primary physician.
- Then, the patient crosses a line, and tramadol addiction arises from drug overuse that has not been regulated or treated medically.
- Tramadol patients do not choose to become drug addicts.
The federal government estimates that some 46 million Americans (age 12 and up), or nearly 20% of the US population, have abused prescription medication at least once. Yet no one knows how many people feed addictions anonymously through the Internet or other sources.
- Patients hope to alleviate their discomfort, often associated with withdrawal.
- Which, in turn, eventually creates a physical dependency, and later an addiction.
- Counseling or medical treatment seem ineffective until the dependency is treated.
- First, the numbing opiates that mask the pain must be removed.
Dependency that leads to tramadol addiction can be reversed by medically inducing rapid detoxification, while the patient is under anesthesia. The hold of opiates is cleansed from the brain.
The Waismann Method or Rapid Detoxification reverses tramadol addiction and dependency in a safe, humane and non-judgmental procedure.
