Facts
- Morphine withdrawal symptoms peak in about 48 to 96 hours after the last dose of the drug, and to subside after about 8 to 10 days.
- When an individual is experiencing the withdrawal symptoms due to a lack of heroin or other opiates, this is commonly referred to as going "cold turkey".
- Opiates are meant to be used in medicine for the treatment of pain, but are often abused among recreational drug users because they can also be used to get high
- In a recent study, the percentage of persons with inhalant dependence reporting clinically significant inhalant withdrawal symptoms was almost equal to the percentage of persons with cocaine dependence reporting clinically significant cocaine withdrawal symptoms.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Any person who is severely addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit greatly by attending a hospital inpatient program. These types of programs are focused towards physical health, mental health and medical stabilization. Recovering persons will have access to medication as well as medical staff around the clock. While not every drug addict requires this level of care, it is useful to those who have severe physical addiction problems to drugs or alcohol. Hospital inpatient programs commonly last several days to even up to a month. Once the inpatient portion of their recovery is finished they may choose to participate at a sober living facility or transfer into an outpatient program.
