What Is Ultracet?
Ultracetis a medication prescribed to patients to alleviate their moderate to severe pain. Ultracet is known as a combination medication because it contains two types of pain relievers that work together to produce its effect. The first pain-reliever, tramadol, is similar to an opioid analgesic because it changes the way the brain interprets pain and therefore how the body feels it. The second substance, acetaminophen, reduces pain while simultaneously being able to reduce fever.

Treatment Options for Ultracet Addiction Symptoms
Those who are prescribed Ultracet and are taking the medication responsibly are still at risk for developing a psychological addiction or physical dependence. If you think someone in your life has started misusing Ultracet, seek help immediately. Signs which may indicate someone is addicted to Ultracet includebecoming obsessedwith finding and taking Ultracet, losing interest in the hobbies and activities they once enjoyed, suffering significant financial losses due to money spent obtaining Ultracet, and performing poorly or irregularly at school or work.
Ultracet Medical Detox
If are no longer interested in treating your pain with Ultracet, you should schedule a meeting with your doctor to discuss alternative treatment options. You should never abruptly stop taking Ultracet, as this will greatly enhance your risk for severe, unwantedwithdrawal symptoms. In addition, you should never adjust your Ultracet dose or usage frequency without explicit instruction from your doctor.
Usually, doctors will taper off a patient’s medication when they are ending treatment with a particular medication. This strategy gives the body ample time to adjust to less and less of the medication while also helping patients avoid enhanced withdrawal symptoms.
Ultracet Rehabilitation Programs

Before entering either inpatient or outpatient Ultracet rehab, patients will be required to completely detox from Ultracet. Once all the Ultracet is safely removed from the body, patients will be able to attend individual and group counseling sessions as well as recreational therapy activities as they undergo treatment at The Recovery Village.
Inpatient Ultracet Rehab
Inpatient Ultracet rehab is a program that requires patients to live on campus at one of The Recovery Village’s designated inpatient centers while they overcome their Ultracet addiction. This rehab program is extremely beneficial for patients suffering from severe Ultracet addiction or those who may find recovery difficult while living at home.
Outpatient Ultracet Rehab
Once a patient finishes the inpatient rehab, they will typically begin outpatient Ultracet rehab. This program allows patients to live at home while they come to The Recovery Village for scheduled treatment appointments. Some patients may be eligible to skip the inpatient option and begin treatment with outpatient Ultracet rehab.
