Speaker: Jillian Stansbury, ND. Many people who rely on opiate medication or use heroin are trapped into continuing use to prevent the agony of acute withdrawal from such substances. Opiate use actually heightens pain, necessitating larger and larger doses. Cessation triggers a landslide of neurologic consequences from sweating, to nausea and vomiting, to agonizing physical discomfort, and mental and emotional irritability. Herbs can do wonders to soothe this brutal process; Dr. Stansbury shares her protocol for withdrawal.
