[QUOTE="2much2recover, post: 647743, member: 18366"] From what I have read using the medications vs heroin gives the brain time to calm down and adjust to the damage done from heroin use. The point is to stay off "street drugs" wean down through medication and give the brain time to heal. Also by using the medications the addict has a chance to get away from the "people, places and things" that can cause relapse as they SLOWLY wean off the pharmaceuticals. I think it is important for the parent of a heroin addict to understand that there are, because of the nature of the drug, underlying physiological problems. [/QUOTE]
