Electric therapy trial for heroin BBC News
A drug addict who was on heroin for five years has claimed he has been cured by a revolutionary treatment.
Barry Philips, 24, from Kilmarnock, said Neuro-Electric Therapy, which sends electric pulses through the brain, had made him drug-free.

He said the treatment enabled him to come off heroin in only five days.

The Scottish Executive is now backing further research into NET which was being discussed at a conference in Kirkcaldy on Friday.

Ken Barrie, director of Alcohol and Drug Studies at Paisley University, said the treatment could be used as a first step.

However, drugs expert, Dr Laurence Gruer, director of public health science at NHS Health Scotland, urged caution, saying NET appeared to treat withdrawal symptoms rather than the addiction itself.

During Neuro-Electric Therapy (NET), self-adhesive electrodes are applied behind the ear.

A pocket-sized stimulator is used continuously for six to 10 days and pulses an electric current through the brain to help stabilise its natural balance.

NET is said to reduce cravings of drug users within one or two weeks.

Mr Philips said he had tried four times without success to come off heroin, using both methadone and cold turkey.

He said his withdrawal symptoms lasted for a much shorter period when he used NET and he had remained clean since the treatment in February.

The name of the game is to limit liability and thwart Darwin. Makes lawyers rich, and provides us with all kinds of gems written on packages. I bought a new hair dryer and was enlightened thus: "Do not use this electric hair dyer in the shower, bath, or pool as death or injury could result." :lol:
