Heroin addiction treatment at IsraRehab

Heroin addiction is a rapidly progressing chronic condition with a high risk of fatal outcome. Due to the severe withdrawal syndrome, overcoming heroin cravings without professional help is nearly impossible.

At IsraRehab, treatment is provided by experienced psychiatrists specializing in addiction, psychotherapists, and certified counselors.

Signs of Heroin Addiction

Addiction can develop after just 2–3 doses. Common symptoms include:

  • Injection marks on the body.
  • Excessive thirst.
  • Daytime drowsiness.
  • Rapid weight loss, loss of appetite.
  • Tendency to lie.
  • Hoarseness, mood swings.
  • Constricted pupils.
  • Skin ulcers, abscesses.

Behavioral changes are also typical — the person may become withdrawn, secretive, and wear long sleeves even in hot weather.

Important: Alternative methods of heroin use (smoking, oral intake, rectal administration) may not leave visible marks, but the symptoms remain.

After heroin use, typical signs include:

  • Lethargy, “nodding off”.
  • Swaying, frequent face scratching.
  • Falling asleep in unusual positions.
  • In case of overdose — respiratory depression, seizures.

Diagnosing Heroin Addiction at IsraRehab

An experienced psychiatrist may suspect addiction during the first consultation, but the diagnosis must be confirmed through testing. The diagnostic process includes:

  • Collecting medical history (including input from family members).
  • Laboratory tests, ultrasound, ECG, CT scans.
  • Psychological evaluation and screening for coexisting mental health issues.
