Tramadol detox spares our patients from a lifetime of fearing withdrawal.
After performing back surgery, a Virginia doctor put his 34-year-old patient and a mother of three on a regimen of prescription drugs, including non-narcotic tramadol.
After two years on tramadol, she had spent thousands of dollars each month at online pharmacies and consumed up to 40 tablets daily.
Neither the doctor nor the mother had intended for tramadol use to become a drug dependency. Patients start on pain-relievers for different medical reasons:
- To manage their chronic pain.
- To treat certain emotional disorders.
Some, for non-medical reasons:
- To postpone withdrawal syndrome.
- To enjoy recreational elation.
Overuse causes dependency. Waismann receives many patients who seek medical help to break drug dependency through tramadol detox. Before seeing us, the long-term consequences of dependency often have not been properly explained to them.
Before tramadol detox, the Virginia mother struggled to maintain stability and avoid withdrawal. Online supplies of tramadol helped her meet the demands of her busy family. …Until she escalated her dosage by ten times her original amount, called in phony prescriptions, and was eventually arrested she and sent to rehab.
Tramadol, like all medicine, is not something to take lightly, like this patient did. Self-administration leads to dependency. Overuse can lead to addiction.
