What reading level is The Treatment of Opium Addiction book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
With our e^Jperience, the assertion of one writer that " it is impos- sible to cure the opium habit, and bridge the patient over the crisis, without having the bowels freely relaxed," seems quite absurd.
We have again and again seen patients recover who had only two, three, or four movements daily. One such, lately dismissed, was a hy- podermic taker of twenty grs. morphia, daily, and had been addicted for several years.
Others have required a laxative enema in less than a week after the opiate... withdrawal.
Formerly, an exclusive milk and lime-water diet during the first two or three days of opium abstinence was deemed advisable. This regime is not now imposed, as some patients are able to do dietetic duty, and the rule is to make no restriction unless the exceptionally occurring stomach or bowel trouble seems to require. More than one patient, habitues for years, did not vomit once. The excessive vomiting mentioned by Levinstein and Ober- steiner — they practise abrupt disuse — we have never noted.
