Is there an injection for drug detox?

Can you answer woodedlane11’s question about Addiction?:

I heard that there was a 24 hour injection given in the hospital. It puts you to sleep for 24 hours. When you wake up the craving is gone. Is this true?

    Addiction Feedback: OMG, that would pretty much defeat the whole point wouldn’t it.

    Addiction Feedback: Yes, but it costs around $15,000 per treatment.

    Addiction Feedback: It is expensive between 10,000 and 15,000 and I don’t think insurance covers it. It can be dangerous and there is no guarantee that it will be successful. Detox is really hard it might be best to admit yourself into a rehab that moniters you during the process and also treat symptoms with meds. Good luck
