Middle East Residents Find Effective and Confidential Captagon Addiction Treatment at The Cabin Chiang Mai

Middle East Residents Find Effective and Confidential Captagon Addiction Treatment at The Cabin Chiang Mai

Captagon, or Abu Hilalain as it called in Saudi Arabia, is a highly addictive illicit drug. The trademark name for this synthetic stimulant is Fenethylline, which has a chemical linkage to amphetamine. First produced in the 1960s to treat hyperactivity, narcolepsy and depression, it was banned in most countries by the 1980s for being too addictive. However, it remains hugely popular in the Middle East.

Today’s counterfeit version of Captagon is based on the original synthetic drug Fenethylline, but is typically adulterated with amphetamine and other substances.

Captagon addiction treatment at The Cabin Chiang Mai consists of 2 main elements:

Medical detoxification

Captagon is a stimulant drug that does not require specific detox medication. A client will generally “crash” for several days during a stabilisation period in which they need to rest and receive proper nutrition. However, at The Cabin Arabic Treatment Centre we provide ongoing, 24-hour medical care supervised by the leading Thai detox specialist throughout the recovery period. Our medical team will administer any medication, if required, to help with withdrawal symptoms that may cause a client to feel discomfort.

If, however, the client develops drug-induced psychosis then an anti-psychotic medication will be prescribed to ameliorate the symptoms – for at least a period of one month depending on his condition.

Psychological treatment

For someone recovering from Captagon addiction, the psychological effects are often more severe than the physical withdrawal. Clients tend to experience strong cravings, depression, agitation, and anxiety as well as a resurgence of any underlying psychological disorders that may have been masked by drug use. It is important to be treated in the right environment by experienced professionals.

Clients will be treated using a combination of culturally-sensitive, evidence-based counselling and therapy techniques tailored to their personal needs. These will include counselling based on the 12 Step techniques, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mind Mapping and Mindfulness meditation. Through these treatment methods, our experienced addiction counsellors will help give clients the tools to lead a sober life by teaching them to recognise their personal triggers and build their own prevention plan to overcome drug cravings and avoid relapse.

Therapy is combined with a holistic exercise and nutrition plan, health and wellness education, fitness and massage therapy to ensure both physical and mental health. Aftercare counseling, relapse prevention programmes, and sober time coaching are also provided.
