About the Detox Handbook
The Detox Handbook gives you the basic information you need if you are coming off, or thinking about coming off, any of the opiate drugs such as heroin or methadone.
If you only use opiates occasionally or only take other drugs such as amphetamines or temazepam then some of the information in this book won’t apply to you.
If you’re in doubt check with a drug worker or doctor.
The handbook aims to help you make decisions and achieve what you want before, during and after a detox. You can use the book to detox on your own, or with help from prescribing or other services.
