Recognizing Drug Addiction
  • There are numerous reasons why people begin using
    drugs but the vulnerability to substance abuse
    differs significantly from one person to another.
    However, diagnosing a drug addiction does not
    entirely depend on physical manifestations of the
    drug addict. Once drug addiction sets in, the
    person becomes physically, emotionally, and
    mentally dysfunctional, and hence, medical
    professionals need to use a series of both
    physical and behavioral diagnostic criteria to
    determine if someone has an addiction. The signs
    and symptoms of substance abuse include
  • Inability to stop using drugs
  • Mood changes or emotional instability
  • Changes in relationships with family members or
    friends
  • Withdrawal symptoms when drug use is stopped
  • Unusual lack of coordination and poor balance

Treatment Options
  • There are varieties of evidence-based approaches
    to treating addiction, but unfortunately, the
    treatment of drug addiction remains highly
    unutilized by most sufferers. Although the
    primary goal of drug abuse treatment is
    abstinence, relapse prevention and
    rehabilitation, the specific type of treatments
    may differ depending on the patients individual
    needs. Drug treatments can include behavioral
    therapy such as cognitive-behavioral therapy or
    contingency management, medications, or their
    combination. In a rehab facility, various
    treatment methodologies are employed to help
    people encounter disruptive effects of addiction
    on the brain and behavior and reclaim their
    lives. Whether you are taking the first steps
    toward recovery or you want to help a family
    member who is in the throes of addiction, a
    proper treatment ensures the reduction of
    powerful effects of drugs on the body and brain.

Treatment Options
  • Detox therapy
  • Inpatient Drug Addiction Treatment
  • A detox therapy is recommended for addiction
    patients to improve their chances of successful
    recovery and prevent relapses. In an ideal
    procedure, medications like buprenorphine and
    naltrexone, along with proper counselling, can
    help patients stay on the road to recovery. This
    process generally takes place in an inpatient
    rehab center with the help of adequate medical
    intervention. Time and again, studies have
    suggested that drug addiction can be better
    controlled with long-term maintenance therapy,
    using either methadone or buprenorphine.
    Although, patients undergoing such a treatment
    are still drug-dependent, they often remain
    untouched by the destructive effects of drug
    addiction. A few addicts have been found to take
    medicines for decades as they tend to fall back
    to illicit drug use after the maintenance therapy
    is stopped, while some others are recommended to
    taper off the therapy over months to years. A
    therapist needs to understand an addicts
    complete history of drug abuse before starting
    any treatment, as most people tend to relapse
    even after achieving long-term abstinence.
  • The inpatient drug rehab and alcohol treatment
    programs provide every addict with the knowledge,
    therapy, counseling, and tools, which allow an
    addict to fully focus on his or her recovery.
    Inpatient facilities located at hospitals offer
    round-the-clock help, which greatly increases the
    chance of successfully completing a treatment
    program for drug abuse, especially if an addict
    does not have a good support system at home or
    has a mental illness. In an inpatient setup,
    patients receive therapy on a daily basis,
    including a mixture of individual and group
    therapy, to help them learn ways to overcome
    their addictions. Since a patient living at a
    facility gets the opportunity to live with other
    people who are struggling with drug or alcohol
    addiction, they are able to be a part of group
    therapy sessions, which help them learn and
    adjust from their counterparts. In the rehab,
    patients can focus solely on the reasons behind
    their addiction and move forward with a positive
    outlook and lifestyle, without having to worry
    about other commitments. Apart from various
    behavioral therapies, the patient may also be
    administered medications to help ease the
    symptoms of detoxification and withdrawal.

Outpatient Drug Addiction Treatment
  • An outpatient drug treatment offers intensive but
    a brief treatment with group counseling being a
    major component. The treatment plan guides drug
    addicts through all stages of recovery, offering
    24-hour supervision and access to recovery
    coaching to support a patients progress in
    outpatient treatment. It is a readily accessible
    rehab option as it allows patients to take care
    of their family, work, or other commitments.
    These programs provide patients with more freedom
    of movement and are ideal for people with a
    strong support system, a stable living situation
    and the internal motivation to change. The
    treatment regimen involves a variety of programs
    in which the patient visits the facility for
    treatment at regular intervals.
