Get Your Loved One Into Prescription Drug Rehab

Whether you are prescribed an opioid-based prescription drug for acute pain after an injury or for chronic pain management, it's easy to develop an addiction that requires prescription drug rehab within the first few months of use. In fact, few who regularly take a prescription painkiller for any length of time will avoid developing a prescription drug addiction. It is especially difficult to watch someone you care about go through an injury that requires an opiate prescription and then watch that pain turn into painkiller addiction. If your loved one is addicted to prescription drugs, don't wait to get him or her the help she needs at a prescription recovery center.

The Canyon offers a prescription drug rehab that is located in southern California, just outside of Beverly Hills. We can help your loved one break free from prescription drug addiction through our comprehensive inpatient or outpatient prescription drug rehab.

Prescription Drug Rehab: Does Your Loved One Need It?

Your loved one needs prescription drug addiction detox and treatment if he or she is dependent upon their prescription either physically or psychologically. A medical condition, physical dependence upon a prescription painkiller is most evident when your loved one stops taking his or her prescription. It is at this time that withdrawal symptoms will appear if physical addiction is a factor. These withdrawal symptoms can include restlessness, stomach cramps, sweating, nausea, runny nose and eyes, and diarrhea. Mild at first, the symptoms progress over the next couple of days and peak between 48 and 72 hours. Without prescription drug addiction treatment, these symptoms will persist for weeks and sometimes months.

Psychological addiction is a little less obvious, but if you know you're loved one well, it's easy enough to spot when he or she begins to prioritize drug use, misses work, loses relationships, or seems "tired" all the time. The presence of psychological addiction in addition to physical addiction or alone means that your loved one needs prescription drug rehab.

Prescription Drug Rehab: What it Provides Your Loved One

A prescription drug addiction rehab will provide your loved one with a multi-faceted treatment for addiction to prescription drugs like Vicodin, OxyContin, codeine, hydrocodone and more. Starting with a medical prescription drug detox, your loved one will receive treatment for the physical aspect of prescription drug addiction. The withdrawal symptoms that come with prescription drug addiction are addressed at this time and medication may be the best choice. Once he or she is stabilized physically, a personalized treatment program will be developed and updated as treatment goals are reached.

Prescription Drug Rehab: Which One is Best for Your Loved One?

Because you have a number of choices in prescription drug addiction treatment, it's important that you choose the one that best suits your loved one's specific needs. The longer your loved one has been struggling with prescription drug addiction, the more likely he or she will do best in an inpatient prescription drug rehab. If the issue is psychological only and your loved one doesn't experience withdrawal symptoms when he or she stops taking her prescription painkiller, then an outpatient prescription drug rehab may be more appropriate.
