Darvocet Addiction

If you or a loved one has been prescribed the painkiller Darvocet, it is very important to adhere to the doctor's directions when taking the medication. Failure to do so could cause a Darvocet addiction to form.

When an individual is suffering from a Darvocet addiction, they may exhibit certain behaviors that they normally wouldn't attempt under normal circumstances. These behaviors are usually centered on obtaining Darvocet and can include:

  • Visiting more than one doctor in hopes of receiving numerous prescriptions for Darvocet
  • Visiting the Emergency Room often in hopes of receiving a prescription
  • Telling their doctor that they lost their prescription or that they need a new one early because they're going on vacation
  • Asking the doctor specifically for brand-name Darvocet, or the pink-colored generic as they have a higher street value than the white generic tablets
  • Going through their prescription too fast and needing refills too early

Other behavioral signs of Darvocet addiction include:

  • Changes in mood
  • Lying, stealing and other dishonest behaviors
  • Seclusion
  • A noticeable change in their friends
  • Lack of money

Darvocet addiction ruins lives. It can directly affect one's relationships and their employment and financial standing. Taking high doses of the medication presents many dangerous health risks, including breathing problems, extreme drowsiness, liver damage, coma and in some extreme cases, even death. Don't allow this to happen to you or your loved one - find Darvocet addiction treatment now!

Darvocet Withdrawal and Treatment

The first stage of overcoming an addiction to Darvocet is the detoxification process. During this time, the symptoms of Darvocet withdrawal will be experienced. Darvocet withdrawal symptoms can vary in intensity and include:

  • Anxiety
  • Shakiness/shivering
  • Cravings for the drug
  • Nausea
  • Diarrhea
  • Sweating
  • Insomnia
  • Muscle pain

While Darvocet withdrawal can be uncomfortable and sometimes painful, a medically-based detox program can sufficiently reduce the symptoms to allow for a much smoother and comfortable detox.

Once detox is finished, the patient will start receiving treatment for recovery. The components of treatment normally include counseling, certain therapies, holistic treatment services, education, relapse prevention and aftercare planning. Each aspect of care is carefully individualized to offer each patient the optimum chance of achieving a successful recovery.

TESTIMONIALS

I know you will never believe it but it has been ten and a half months since I finished treatment and am still in recovery. I know you will say it may be more of a miracle that I finished rehab being that I was about as resistant a patient can be, but I am making it one day at a time. Special thanks to Robert.

This is to my therapist Bobby, who never gave up on me. I could never have made it through rehab without your patience. You taught me that I am worth it.

-- Bryan, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

My life was a shambles, my husband wanted a divorce and my children wouldn't speak with me. I felt hopeless until we all got together for family treatment. While we all have some hills to climb, my recovery is solid. Who would have thought, 476 days sober. Love to all.

-- Patti P, Atlanta, Georgia

You guys were right when you told me to get right into meetings. They have kept me clean and sober and I have made a lot of good friends. Thanks for bringing meetings into rehab.
