The discovery of the pain-relieving properties of opium and its modern derivatives has been one of the cornerstones of medicine.  Molecules with ‘opiate’ or ‘opioid’ activity activate ‘receptors’ on nerve cells, causing the reduction of pain sensation.  Opiates include morphine, heroin, and dilaudid, and more modern chemicals such as oxycodone (Percocet or Oxycontin), hydrocodone (Vicodin), and fentanyl (Duragesic or Sublimaze).  These chemicals are sold and marketed as some of the most potent pain-relieving medications available.

Unfortunately, there is a ‘dark side’ to these medications;  when taken regularly they lose their potency, requiring progressive increases in dose.  Stopping opiate medications after regular use results in withdrawal, and often there is an uncontrollable desire to continue taking the medication.  These symptoms are the hallmark of addiction, and addiction to pain medication has reached epidemic levels in some communities, including communities in Wisconsin.

Some patients have become addicted to opiates after legitimate prescribed use, and others after use of non-prescribed opiates.  The Wisconsin Opiate Management Center offers a variety of high quality services to assist patients caught by addiction to regain their freedom. Our services may include mood medications, tapered and medicated withdrawal, use of Suboxone and Subutex, and the use of new non-opiate medications such as Cymbalta and Lyrica.  We will help tailor an outpatient program specifically suited for each patient’s unique circumstances.
