Opiate prescription drugs such as Dihydrocodeine are useful in treating a number of conditions but carry the risk of overdose. [**Opiate overdose**](https://www.opiates.com/opiate-overdose) is serious and can be fatal. Dihydrocodeine is often prescribed for cough suppression, pain relief and to treat shortness of breath. It can be habit-forming and should only be taken by those with a legitimate prescription for it. Sharing this prescription with someone else, especially someone who’s had a previous addiction, is not advised. Like other opiates, Dihydrocodeine is considered a drug of abuse and should be kept in a secure place where others cannot get it. Overdose can occur when patients take too much of the drug. It’s also extremely risky to mix Dihydrocodeine with other narcotic drugs, alcohol, sedatives, muscle relaxers, tranquilizers or other medications that slow breathing or cause drowsiness. Like these other substances, Dihydrocodeine is a central nervous system depressant. Mixing them can cause dangerous side effects or death. Exceptional Care & Better Outcome.

## Waismann Method and Domus Retreat offer Thorough Dihydrocodeine Treatment

An overdose can be intentional in nature but most cases are accidental. It can happen among recreational users and those with legitimate prescriptions. Because opiates are so potent and can lead to addiction, it’s essential to take the medication exactly as prescribed. Dihydrocodeine addiction can develop with regular use and requires a safe, responsible detox.

Our procedure accelerates withdrawal and patients are unaware they experienced symptoms while they were under sedation. Our total required stay is 2 to 4 days. We also provide optional transitional living facilities at our [Domus Retreat](https://www.opiates.com/after-care/) that are ultra-private. Our aftercare programs through Domus include massage, biofeedback, and counseling. We take great pride in offering guests the very best pampering, therapeutic and holistic treatments.
