Fort Lauderdale, FL, USA | February 10, 2022 — Are you or a loved one struggling with benzodiazepine addiction or benzodiazepine dependence? Do you need help getting off of a benzodiazepine medication?

For patients who are looking for solutions to help them get off of benzos, Dr. Leeds can provide answers. Common benzodiazepine drugs that lead to long-term dependence include Xanax (alprazolam), Valium (diazepam), Klonopin (clonazepam), Ativan (lorazepam), and others.

While these prescription medications are highly effective for relieving anxiety quickly, long-term use can lead to a physical and psychological dependence that can be difficult to overcome. Quitting cold turkey is not only unpleasant, it can be dangerous.

Guidance from an expert concierge addiction doctor can make all the difference in quitting benzos successfully. Dr. Leeds will work with you directly, helping you every step of the way to achieve your goals of becoming benzo free.

Quitting benzos cold turkey can cause dangerous seizures, which can be life-threatening. The best way to quit benzos is with a customized tapering plan. Dr. Leeds will create a custom plan that will work for you.

Benzo withdrawal is not pleasant, but there are effective treatments that make the tapering process tolerable. Avoid the dreaded benzo belly bloating and sleepless nights. Avoid unpleasant rebound anxiety.

If you have researched how to taper from benzos effectively, you may have come across the Ashton Manual by Professor Heather Ashton, a British doctor and psychopharmacologist. Dr. Ashton helped hundreds of patients taper successfully off of benzos, and she developed a method which she describes in the Ashton Manual.

While the Ashton Method is effective, it can be difficult to apply the program specifically to your individual situation. There are many ways to implement the method which are not detailed in the manual.

Additionally, there are safe ways to address stress, anxiety, and insomnia that may occur during and after the tapering process. Dr. Leeds will be available to you around the clock to help you overcome long-term benzodiazepine use.

Long-term benzodiazepine users can avoid severe withdrawal symptoms by following a clear plan. Dr. Leeds will help you to design a plan that is gentle, and will not cause interruptions to your daily activities.

Dr. Leeds Now Provides Suboxone Side Effects Management

Are you having Suboxone Side Effects? Call Dr. Leeds for a consultation to see what you can do about side effects caused by Suboxone therapy.

Fort Lauderdale, FL – USA | October 14, 2021 — Suboxone, a combination of buprenorphine and naloxone, is a highly effective treatment for opiate addiction. Buprenorphine works on the opioid receptor as both an opioid antagonist and a partial opioid agonist.

Ideally, when a patient attends a Suboxone clinic, they are able to start Suboxone for opioid addiction treatment without any problems. Suboxone treatment works well, stopping opioid withdrawal symptoms and preventing opioid drug cravings.

However, some opioid dependence patients do experience Suboxone side effects. Unfortunately, many doctors are unprepared to help patients with the possible side effects of taking Suboxone.

What are some of the more common negative side effects of Suboxone?

While most patients do not experience any short term negative Suboxone effects, many do experience one or more side effects. To start, there is buprenorphine headache, buprenorphine nausea, buprenorphine weight gain, and buprenorphine constipation. Suboxone dry mouth is also an issue for some patients.

Some patients complain that Suboxone makes it so they can’t pee, and others complain that it keeps them awake at night with insomnia. Urinary hesitancy as well as Suboxone and sweating may be the most under-reported side effects.

In rare cases, a patient may experience Suboxone dizziness or Suboxone nausea and vomiting. These side effects are rare and should be addressed immediately.

Are there long term-effects of Suboxone use?

Fortunately, buprenorphine/naloxone, most often prescribed in the form of the Suboxone Sublingual Film, does not cause serious long-term effects. Many patients are able to tolerate the medication long-term.

Reports about Suboxone addiction, Suboxone overdose, and Suboxone abuse are often sensationalized by the media, but are not real concerns. Unfortunately, these Suboxone myths persist, slowing down the overall adoption of medication assisted treatment.

The side effects of taking Suboxone can be treated by an experienced concierge Suboxone doctor. Often, patients can discuss symptoms of taking Suboxone during a telemedicine visit.

When the doctor listens to what you have to say and takes the time to allow you to provide all the details surrounding your Suboxone negative side effects, it will be easier to find a solution that works for you. Unfortunately, the staff at many Suboxone detox facilities do not take the time to listen.

If you are going to a behavioral therapy program that provides Suboxone, yet they do not take your side effects seriously, you may want to consider a consultation with Dr. Leeds.

Dr. Leeds can help with issues such as Suboxone weight gain, Suboxone and constipation, Suboxone headache, and more. The symptoms of taking Suboxone must be taken seriously. If you are having Suboxone constipation or Suboxone headache, you are going to want to speak to a doctor who cares and who knows how to help.

In addition to helping with early treatment side effects, Dr. Leeds can also help with Suboxone withdrawal symptoms. Patients who are completing treatment will often complain of the side effects of Suboxone withdrawal.

It is possible to complete Suboxone treatment without having to suffer with severe withdrawal symptoms. Having the support of a knowledgeable doctor is critical in overcoming the issue of Suboxone and physical dependence.

If you have concerns about the short term and the long term effects of Suboxone, call Dr. Leeds for a consultation to get started. Buprenorphine long term side effects are concerning, but do not necessarily mean that you will have to stop treatment. Speak to Dr. Leeds about the long term effects of buprenorphine treatment and the short term side effects to see how he can help to make your treatment more tolerable and more successful.
