Pinnacle Peak Recovery Detox Center, an alcohol and drug rehab facility in Scottsdale, AZ, recently published information on how to identify heroin and what signs to look for in loved ones who are struggling with an addiction. An overdose occurs when a drug is consumed in quantities that are greater than usual or advised. This may cause negative effects or even death. Opioids, on the other hand, are among the deadliest medications on the market and a major contributor to overdose fatalities. Sometimes known as narcotics, opioids include over-the-counter medications and prescription pain relievers. Hydrocodone, fentanyl, oxycodone, heroin, and tramadol are a few examples of this, and it is important for everyone to remember that even prescription medications have the potential for abuse and overdose.

Heroin is a little word that carries big issues. The opioid epidemic's main culprit is heroin. Over 680,000 opioid overdose deaths were reported in the United States in only 2020, and those figures have risen since then. Millions of individuals all around the world have been victimized by heroin. The center says it is necessary for people who want to help to get rid of their preconceived notions about the type of person who fights with heroin addiction since, despite the fact that there are some factors that are associated with increased risk, addiction can affect anyone. Friends and family members of a heroin user experience a flurry of emotions, including shock, bewilderment, fear, guilt, grief, frustration, and fury. They find it incomprehensible that the brilliant, creative, kind, and amazing person they know and love, who had it all, would have to battle heroin addiction. Perhaps they have even made numerous attempts to encourage a friend or family member to receive treatment for heroin addiction, but the latter have either been unwilling to do so or have tried treatment before relapsing.

Heroin addiction is notoriously difficult to treat, yet recovery is possible and occurs every day. Knowing how to distinguish heroin from other drugs and how to recognize the indicators of heroin usage might be beneficial if a loved one is using the substance. The cycle of heroin addiction can be broken before it starts with early intervention. It’s critical to understand the symptoms of a heroin overdose if there are family members who are battling heroin addiction. These symptoms include an extremely pale face that may also feel clammy to the touch, the body becoming limp, a purple or blue tint to the lips or fingernails, the inability to speak or be awakened, the onset of vomiting or the making of gurgling noises, and a slowing or stopping of the heartbeat or breathing. The National Institute on Drug Abuse reports that more than 1,000 opioid-related fatalities have occurred in Arizona in 2018. Additionally, the number of deaths from synthetic opioids, mainly fentanyl, nearly doubled in 2018.

From the beginning to the end of therapy, the complete addiction treatment program at Pinnacle Peak Recovery is tailored to meet the needs of each patient. In Scottsdale, Arizona, there is a heroin detox center available to prioritize the patient's comfort and health for individuals experiencing withdrawal symptoms and needing medical attention. Inpatient treatment for alcohol, benzodiazepines, Adderall, marijuana, cocaine, and meth is also offered by Pinnacle Peak Recovery. In order to help treat opioid addiction, they also offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT). Finally, they provide outpatient programming to carry on the patient's care. To meet the unique needs of each patient, Pinnacle Peak Recovery uses a variety of treatment approaches, including yoga therapy, equine therapy, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), holistic therapy, experiential therapy, meditation, and dual diagnosis treatment for both addiction and mental health needs.

Pinnacle Peak Recovery, which was established in 2015, offers nationally renowned, scientifically supported alternatives to traditional drug and alcohol addiction therapy. They always take a comprehensive and all-encompassing approach to help clients overcome their addiction and co-occurring mental health conditions in a private, secure, and encouraging setting. Addiction and mental health are always seen at Pinnacle Peak Recovery as two interconnected problems. For this reason, they use a dual diagnosis treatment approach to meet the patient's needs for both addiction therapy and mental health care.
