Just How Dangerous is Morphine?male patient sits on couch and talks to counselor with clipboard in morphine addiction treatment

Morphine is a highly dangerous drug that leads to thousands of fatalities each year. Some risks of taking morphine include:

  • Contracting hepatitis B & C
  • Contracting HIV
  • Developing mental health problems
  • Increased clinical depression
  • Severe heart problems

You will also suffer from many of the same side effects that you do when you are addicted to other drugs such as mood swings, hypersomnia & insomnia, a feeling of disconnect, sudden changes in behavior, and a lack of motivation to do anything. If you experience any of these side effects, seek substance abuse treatment right away. Pillars Recovery can help you overcome your addiction.

Morphine Addiction Treatment We Offer

Our painkiller addiction treatment center is designed to help you address both your addiction and also explore any underlying factors that may have contributed to your dependency on morphine. For instance, are/were you suffering from some type of painful medical condition?

Regardless of what led to your addiction, we offer different types of therapy and treatment, at our morphine addiction treatment center in California:

Our treatment is available at our residential treatment center. You can choose the intensive outpatient treatment or our partial hospitalization program. We also offer separate therapy for women and men.

Detox & Early Recovery Treatment: What You Can Expect

Within 6-12 hours of your last dose of morphine, you will start to experience withdrawals. You may begin to feel depressed halfway through the first day, and muscle cramps may keep you up at night. By day two, diarrhea usually sets in for most morphine addicts, and many reports feeling like it’s hard to catch their breath. You will likely start to feel sick before day three rolls around when symptoms will peak before they start to wear off gradually.

To assist you with your detox and initial stages of recovery, you may want withdrawal management or medication-assisted treatment. Suboxone and Naltrexone are two of the most common forms of treatment. Suboxone blocks any ability to get high from abusing either of the drugs. Other drugs may curb your cravings.

We also incorporate support groups that you can join immediately to give the encouragement you need at the beginning of your treatment. You may also start meeting with your therapist right away once you get out of detox.
