Prescription drug addiction often begins with a legitimate medical prescription. Over time, tolerance builds, dosages increase, and dependence takes hold. Our prescription drug rehab program addresses the unique challenges of recovering from medications that were once prescribed by a doctor.
Common Prescription Drug Addictions
We treat addiction to a wide range of prescription medications including opioid painkillers (OxyContin, Vicodin, Percocet), benzodiazepines (Xanax, Valium, Klonopin), stimulants (Adderall, Ritalin), and sleep medications (Ambien, Lunesta).
Medical Detox & Tapering
Many prescription medications require careful medical tapering rather than abrupt cessation. Our medical team creates individualized tapering schedules based on the specific medication, dosage, and duration of use to ensure safe withdrawal.
Addressing the Root Cause
Our program goes beyond detox to address the underlying conditions — chronic pain, anxiety, insomnia, or ADHD — that led to the prescription in the first place. We work with patients to find non-addictive alternatives for managing these conditions.
- Individualized medical tapering and detox protocols
- Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) when appropriate
- Non-addictive pain management alternatives
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and individual counseling
- Dual diagnosis treatment for co-occurring conditions
- Aftercare planning with relapse prevention strategies
