Recognizing the Signs of an Opioid Overdose An opioid overdose can rapidly incapacitate a person, leading to potentially fatal consequences. It is crucial to recognize the signs of an overdose early and act immediately. Quick action can also mitigate longer-term complications for those who survive an overdose, emphasizing the life-saving importance of rapid and informed responses. #AddictionRecovery #EndtheStigma Joseph A.

National network of outpatient addiction treatment centers: accelerated detoxification and case management services
About us
Champions in the fight against #addiction. Innovators in #addictiontreatment. Strong believers in second chances. The Coleman Institute’s unique outpatient detox programs have helped thousands of people free themselves from addiction to Alcohol, Opioids, and Benzodiazepines since 1998. We have an extraordinarily high 98% success rate for getting opioid patients onto the non-addictive opiate blocker, Naltrexone, which helps prevent relapse by reducing cravings and blocking highs. To help our patients get into long-term recovery and stay there, our program includes ongoing Naltrexone therapy and supportive case management after the withdrawal management phase. Unlike other forms of rapid detox, the Coleman Method speeds patients through withdrawal in relative comfort without the use of general anesthesia. Founded in Richmond, Virginia, our network has expanded to cover 12 cities in 10 states across the U.S. To learn more, please call us today at 888-736-1720 or visit our website at thecolemaninstitute.com For short-acting opiates like heroin, most patients complete their detox and begin Naltrexone therapy within 3 days. Longer-acting opiates like Suboxone and Methadone typically take 8 days. During the entire procedure, sedating medication is used to greatly minimize any withdrawal symptoms. During the detox, we work with patients and their families to develop an appropriate aftercare plan. Dr. Peter Coleman understands first-hand the struggle to get clean and stay clean due to his own personal struggle with addiction. Since getting into recovery in 1984, Dr. Coleman has dedicated his career to treating addiction patients and creating a team and an environment conducive to long term recovery for his patients.

Methadone maintenance therapy under the supervision of a practitioner is both safe and effective, but it can leave you with the challenge of detoxing off of methadone itself. Since methadone is an opioid itself, it results in withdrawal symptoms when an individual stops taking it, just like with other opioids. In fact, most patients find detoxing off of methadone more difficult than withdrawing off of short-acting opioids. Methadone is a long-acting opioid agonist, so it stays active on the brain for a longer period of time than many other opioids. #AddictionRecovery #EndtheStigma Joseph A.

How Does Naltrexone Therapy At The Coleman Institute Work? Naltrexone is a medicine that blocks the opiate receptors in a person’s brain, which means it dramatically reduces opiate and alcohol cravings when they’re taking it. It is non-addictive and does not block the body’s natural endorphins. If you are struggling, Please get help. There are options available. For information visit: https://lnkd.in/eR_iaBn or call 804-461-3888 #AddictionRecovery #EndtheStigma Joseph A.

One of the most common complaints from those in recovery is having low energy and feeling very irritable. This lack of energy can be debilitating, making it difficult to carry out daily activities and maintain a normal routine. The feeling of constant exhaustion can also exacerbate other symptoms, such as irritability, mood swings, and depression, creating a vicious cycle that can be challenging to break. #AddictionRecovery #EndtheStigma

A support person plays a multifaceted role in your detox. They are your confidant, cheerleader, and sometimes a lifeline during moments of vulnerability. Their responsibilities might include helping you manage your medication schedule, providing transportation to treatment sessions, or simply being there to listen when you need to talk. The right support person offers empathy without judgment, encouraging your progress and helping you stay committed to your recovery goals. #AddictionRecovery #EndtheStigma Joseph A.

One Pill Can Kill....... Don't take a chance....... Fentanyl, a significant contributor to the opioid crisis, is a powerful synthetic opioid. It is readily available on the streets because it is cheap to manufacture and up to 50 times more potent than heroin. In many cases, people do not even realize the drug they are purchasing contains deadly Fentanyl. If you or someone you love is struggling.......

Outpatient Alcohol Detox Treatment If you’re struggling with alcoholism, you may have tried to cut back or quit on your own. But serious withdrawal symptoms, ranging from uncomfortable to deadly, can make self-detoxing both challenging and risky. At the Coleman Institute for Addiction Medicine, we take these risks seriously and want to treat your addiction as safely and as comfortably as possible. That’s why we’ve developed the Coleman Method, a safe method to restore brain and body function in an outpatient setting. #AddictionRecovery #EndtheStigma Joseph A.
