What is the treatment to Demerol drug addiction?

Question by becky: What is the treatment to Demerol drug addiction?
My roommate Kit is addicted to a drug called Demerol. I think it’s a pain killer that she uses to maximize the effects brought by other sedatives. Demerol makes her drowsy, lightheaded, lethargic and sweaty. Lately, she told me that she’s having trouble with her stomach too. Now that she’s finally experiencing its side effects, Kit asked me to look for a possible treatment. She told me that she wants to quit taking Demerol and that she wants to change. Please help us. Thank you.

I think there are available medications to help treat Demerol addiction but I think the best solution is for your roommate Kit to enter a drug rehabilitation center. Doctors, therapists and professional counselors are more knowledgeable about treating Demerol addiction. They will not only help Kit get over her addiction but they will also help her deal with her problems better. Convince Kit to enter a rehab. It’s the right thing to do.
