Prescription Drug Addiction

Prescription drug addiction has become a national crisis among women. Drugs like OxyContin, Xanax, Vicodin, Percocet and others are being abused at increasingly alarming rates. The consequences can be dire, but fortunately, help and support is available.

Unmatched Prescription Drug Abuse Treatment for Women

The Women's Treatment Center for Healthy Living provides some of the safest and most effective treatments for prescription drug abuse and addiction. Our prescription drug addiction treatment program offers a full continuum of care which includes:

• Prescription Drug Detox - Prescription drug withdrawal can be life threatening if not managed properly. Our prescription drug addiction detox program is a medically driven treatment designed to manage withdrawal symptoms safely and comfortably. Learn more about our drug detox program.
• Prescription Drug Rehab - Experience has shown us that women who complete drug detox and fail to go on to a drug rehab program tend to end up right back in the grips of a prescription drug addiction. With this in mind, we developed a holistic prescription drug addiction treatment program designed to facilitate a long lasting recovery. Learn more about our drug rehab program.
• Dual Diagnosis Treatment - Many of the women we treat have developed a prescription drug addiction as a means of trying to cope with an eating disorder or mental illness. Our ability to treat these disorders concurrently is one of the main reasons treatment professionals hold us in such high esteem. Read more about our dual diagnosis and eating disorder treatment programs.
• Relapse Prevention - Recovering from drug addiction is a difficult process. It takes time, commitment and a tremendous amount of support. Our relapse prevention program teaches you how to avoid the negative people, places and situations that would lead you back into a life of prescription drug addiction. We educate every woman about what their individual relapse triggers may be and how to best deal with them. Whatever your issues upon discharge, we will assist you in meeting those challenges.

Consequences of Prescription Drug Addiction

Prescription drug addiction is no different than any other drug addiction in that prolonged use increases the risk of significant consequences, including:

• Legal consequences (DUI, prescription fraud, theft)
• Deterioration of interpersonal relationships
• Severe medical problems
• Emotional problems (depression, anxiety, mood swings, confusion, apathy)
• Employment difficulties (poor work performance, inability to focus)
