why medical detox

We are a Center of Excellence

A Center of Excellence, using a recent definition from an article in the Journal of Clinical Pathways, March 2019, is defined as “centers made up of highly skilled experts dedicated to specific therapeutic areas who are often at the forefront of innovation in their field.” There are three core aspects to COEs: the team at the center, the particular focus of the center, and the purpose of the center.

Polysubstance Detox Protocol

Our Gallus Method utilizes IV protocol to prioritize patient comfort and safety during detox, and this makes a difference with polysubstance detox. Controlling the patient’s medications through an IV helps patients feel better, and not experience ups and downs like oral medication can cause.

I never felt I was anywhere but home.

I never felt I was anywhere but home. The nursing staff became friends and family. I have never received such loving care and consideration. I was consistently asked if I needed anything and if the staff could help in any way. That being said, I was never bothered or pestered. My space was always respected. Angie, Taryn, and Brie are angels. I’m so excited to leave for treatment tomorrow but I will miss the staff here terribly.

It was calm and relaxed.

I would highly recommend it for high-level fentanyl users, I didn't think I could comfortably detox.

Treated at Gallus for Fentanyl

It's been the most incredible detox I’ve ever been to

The staff is amazing and attentive, they even come to your room for vitals and meds. They truly care about how you are feeling. The facility is very clean and nice. It was great to have my own room with a TV and my own choices of food. The clinical director was fantastic and engaging.

Fentanyl

It’s a synthetic opioid pain reliever that is 80 – 100 times more powerful than morphine. There is pharmaceutical fentanyl and illicitly manufactured fentanyl. Pharmaceutical fentanyl is used to treat severe pain, most commonly advanced cancer symptoms. Illicitly manufactured fentanyl is placed in eye droppers or nasal sprays, made into pills, dropped onto blotter paper and made into a powder. Chemically-similar analogs of fentanyl are also being created, and these include carfentanil, acetylfentanyl, butyrfentanyl, and furanyl fentanyl.

Xylazine

Xylazine is a non-opioid sedative and muscle relaxant, commonly used as a large animal anesthetic, and is now being found in the illicit drug market. It is commonly added to opioids because it increases the effects. It is related to Clonidine, an alpha-2 agonist, causing a decrease in heart rate, blood pressure, and sedating effects.

Isotonitazene

Isotonitazene is a potent synthetic opioid that is derived from etonitazene (an analgesic). Etonitazene is extremely powerful and addictive when it was used in studies on animals and humans, which is why it was never made commercially available. Isotonitazene emerged on the illicit drug market in April 2019. It’s commonly in pill form, but also can be found in powder form as an off-white or yellow color.

Carfentanil

Carfentanil is an opioid agonist developed in 1974 by Janssen Pharmaceuticals and sold under the trade name Wildnil. It is an analog of the synthetic opioid Fentanyl, made as a tranquilizer for wild animals such as elephants, bears, moose, etc, typically delivered with a tranquilizer dart. Wildlife rangers are required to use protective gear when handling such as gloves, face shields, due to the ability to absorb it through the skin and respiratory tract. Veterinarians in the US also use this for the sedation of large animals such as horses.
