How is Tianeptine taken?  

When it is prescribed for you it comes in tablet form.

Usually, a 12.5MG tablet is taken, three times a day.

Unlike most antidepressants, it is taken throughout the day rather than a single dose.

Treatment plans, including detox rehab for Tianeptine addiction, often reflect how it is used or abused.

When taken, without a prescription, users take far higher doses.

if you buy it illegally  it is impossible to known how much you are taking, especially when it is sold in liquid form.

Tianeptine addiction detox rehab is recommended due to the risks of unknown dosages.

Some people inject it or mix it in their drinks.

When it is injected, it goes straight to the brain receptors which increases the risk of overdose.

 
In these scenarios, detox rehab for Tianeptine addiction becomes urgent and complex.

What does Tianeptine do to the brain? 

Tianeptine sits on receptors in the brain and opens up chemical channels meaning more serotonin, than usual, is absorbed.

This leads to a lowering of stress levels and will elevate mood.

Tianeptine also boosts dopamine production due to the way it activates the brains opioid receptors.

Too much Serotonin can be very dangerous and can lead to Serotonin syndrome. 

Left untreated this can be a life threatening condition.

What happens if you stop taking Tianeptine?

When you take Tianeptine for a period of time, your brain will become used to the prescence of the drug on receptors.


In time, the brain will adjust the way it works because of the prescence of the drug.


This is known as tolerance.

You will need to take ever increasing amounts to have the same effect as the small amount you started with.


This means that if you stop taking it you will experience withdrawals because the brain can not cope with the immediate cessation.

It will start to fire off incorrrect chemical messages which is what causes symptoms of withdrawal.

 What about home treatment for Tianeptine addiction? 

Not reccomended.

Residential treatment is always the optimal treatment choice and will cost a lot less.

Treatment at home, because of the need for medical oversight and 24/7 nurse support would be incredibly cost prohibitive.

It is possible.
