Check out this bullshit

Seems like precipitated withdrawal under anesthesia with subsequent naltrexone and some kind of receptor attenuation. Super vague description of the procedure

For the record, I only call bullshit because the treatment is 20,000 and most opioid users I’ve met can barely afford an ounce of heroin much less a 20k lifesaving treatment.

ANR is classified as an elective procedure. An elective procedure or service is one that is beneficial to the patient but not considered urgent. These services require payment prior to the service being provided. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide non-emergency services without securing some form of payment. ANR Clinic does not receive financial assistance from taxpayers (the county, city, state, or federal government) to support our operations. Currently, ANR is not covered by insurance or Medicare/ Medicaid.


We understand that the cycle of dependency is a major financial burden on both the individual and their loved ones.

I was not aware this was legal in the US. They do it in other countries.

Extremely risky procedure... putting someone under anesthesia for extended periods of time (more than a few hours) is inherently very dangerous. From what I've read of these places, they basically put you into a 5-7 day medically induced coma. There is a very real chance you don't wake up.

ANR, or **Anesthesia-Assisted Rapid Detoxification**, is a treatment designed to help individuals detoxify from opioids quickly while minimizing withdrawal symptoms. The process generally involves:

1. **Anesthesia**: Patients are given general anesthesia or heavy sedation to put them into a sleep-like state.

2. **Opioid Receptor Blockade**: During the procedure, medications are administered that block opioid receptors and accelerate the removal of opioids from the body.

3. **Rapid Detoxification**: The detoxification process is expedited while the patient is under anesthesia, which helps to reduce the discomfort of withdrawal symptoms.

4. **Post-Procedure Support**: After the procedure, patients are monitored and provided with support to manage any lingering withdrawal symptoms and to begin addiction treatment or counseling.

ANR is a controversial treatment and is not universally endorsed by medical professionals. Some criticize it for its potential risks and the need for comprehensive post-detoxification care. Always consult with a healthcare provider to determine the most appropriate treatment options for opioid dependence.

If I was going to do this to someone with my limited medical knowledge

I’d anesthetize, induce precipitated withdrawal, possibly utilize low dose naltrexone while under to “scrub” receptors, maybe use specific dose of naloxone to limit number of available receptors, wake patient after six hours, probably continue with low dose naltrexone after procedure to somewhat occupy receptors. . . Then use supplements to encourage endogenous opioid generation, institute a diet conducive to endogenous endorphin production, institute an exercise regimen, and enroll the patient in an addiction counseling program.

Id seriously like to know how this doctor is reducing receptors tho. It’s for to be naloxone

 

[helpingout]

I’d bet the naloxone that precipitates withdrawal also antagonizes receptors and reduces their efficacy not their number

Jordan Peterson went through this procedure in Russia for benzo addiction. That's where I first heard about it.

It seems helpful but I imagine you’ve got to be seriously committed to abstinence. I don’t imagine it to wipe the memories of how good your drug of choice feels.

With benzos I can imagine it taking 5-7 days.

With opiates I think your kick could be over in 5-6 hours.

I know that my precipitated withdrawal experience was the most painful thing I’ve ever endured. But if you can occupy the receptor post evacuating it. I imagine you could reduce patient pain. Maybe just enough buprenorphine to where they’re not in agony but might be feeling not terribly sick

All in all I think it’s beautiful medicine but I would love to see it more accessible than just… debt
