The Guide to Understanding Prescription Drug Detox
In the right situations and with medical professional oversight, prescription opioid medications can provide pain relief and other benefits.

In the Guide: Prescription Drug Addiction and Our Industry Leading Detox Program
Prescription drug dependence and addiction is more prevalent in the United States than many understand, in fact, prescription drugs are the third-most misused illegal substance.
Many people who become addicted to opioids started using them because a doctor prescribed an opioid medication like Fentanyl, Oxycodone, Percocet, or Tramadol for a legitimate medical purpose, such as pain relief after surgery or relief from chronic pain. However because these opioid medications stimulate powerful reward centers in the brain, addiction or dependence can form.
That’s why we’re here to help. Here’s more about what you’ll find in our free Guide to Understanding Prescription Drug Detox:
How Did We Get Here?
The opioid epidemic has led to stricter laws on physicians administering opioid-based prescription drugs, leading many doctors to no longer prescribe these drugs. This means many patients no longer have legal access to the prescription medication they inadvertently developed a dependence on, making them at risk for intense withdrawal symptoms.
Choosing a Detox Method
Opioid-based prescription drugs can cause physical changes in your brain. Most people cannot stop using these prescription drugs without a severe and intolerable withdrawal reaction, so many people need to seek out professional help for withdrawal management. Detox can be the first step on the road to recovery from opioid addiction.
Recovery Support
We strongly believe that detoxification without appropriate follow up and treatment is almost always unsuccessful. Because of this we encourage all of our patients to find a treatment program that will best suit their needs. Learn about the types of treatment modalities.
