Pharmacotherapies
-
Acamprosate (Campral®)
Often known by the brand name Campral, Acamprosate is a common medication used in alcohol dependence treatment. Unlike other medicines that make alcohol unpleasant to the user, Acamprosate works by reducing the brain's dependence on it.
-
Disulfiram
Disulfiram (Antabuse) is an alcohol dependence treatment medication that reduces cravings by discouraging the consumption of alcohol.
-
Buprenorphine with naloxone
Buprenorphine is an opioid agonist that reduces the effects of opioid withdrawal. Naloxone rapidly reverses the effects of opioids, preventing overdose and severe withdrawal symptoms
-
Naltrexone (oral)
Naltrexone blocks the pleasure receptors that are interacted with by alcohol and narcotics. This effectively removes any pleasurable sensations the substance offers and reduces the need to take them.

Naltrexone (extended-release, injectable)

Individual counseling involves patients speaking with a counselor or therapist about their addiction in a one-to-one setting.

-
Group counseling
Group counseling can takes place in both inpatient and outpatient settings and involves those afflicted with substances use disorders/behavioral addictions meeting to discuss their issues. This form of counseling can help create a level of empathy and understanding of others journeys with addiction, which can help to give perspective on an individual's addiction.

Detox
-
Alcohol Detoxification
The safest and most effective way of tackling detox is through an alcohol rehab center with dedicated medical supervision. This reduces the risks of medical complications caused by withdrawal and reduces the likelihood of relapse
-
Benzodiazepines Detoxification
The physical and psychological effects of benzodiazepine withdrawal, such as seizures and suicidal ideation, are potentially life-threatening and should always be treated by medical professionals in a medically supervised detox.
-
Cocaine Detoxification
The first stages of cocaine addiction treatment begin with an initial detox. During cocaine detoxification, the drug is cleared from the body while a healthcare professional manages withdrawal symptoms and keeps the patient calm and comfortable
-
Methamphetamines detoxification
Meth withdrawal symptoms are often very uncomfortable and are a significant reason people cannot quit meth on their own. Meth detoxification can help manage difficult withdrawal symptoms and prepare the client for the next phase of treatment.
-
Opioids detoxification
Most people experiencing opioid withdrawal will begin to feel symptoms within the first 8-24 hours after their last dose, and sometimes even sooner. Without a monitored detoxification, these intense withdrawal symptoms will often cause the sufferer to relapse. Opioid detoxification can include a course of medication to help alleviate cravings and manage uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms.
