Naltrexone Compressed Opiate Detoxification

Naltrexone Compressed Opiate Detoxification (NCOD) is a new and literature-based way to detoxify completely from opiates over 8-14 days without the use of Suboxone/buprenorphine.
This method of medical detoxification is specifically indicated for people who have been chronically relapsing on heroin and other opiates, often despite access to Suboxone or methadone treatment.
Our treatment goal is to help patients maintain their recovery through the use of vivitrol- a once-a-month, injectable opiate antagonist. This medication blocks the ability to relapse on opiates for 30 days.
