  • Title: [Detoxication in opiate addiction and prevention of recurrence: administration of naltrexone and cognitive behavior therapy].
    Author: Roozen HG, Deden AL, Kerkhof AJ, Vorsteveld JP, van den Brink W.
    Journal: Ned Tijdschr Geneeskd; 1997 Dec 06; 141(49):2377-80. PubMed ID: 9554156.
    Abstract:
    Rapid opiate withdrawal and relapse prevention in opiate addicts are made possible by naltrexone, clonidine and diazepam in combination with cognitive behavioural therapy according to the Community Reinforcement Approach. In an open pilot experiment 12 addicted patients achieved initial detoxification. At follow-up after a minimum of 6 months, 10 of these had not relapsed. Good results with this detoxification method could be booked by selecting highly motivated opiate addicts.
