SAN DIEGO, April 27, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Prescription drug detox is said to be the most challenging detox to complete. This is not because prescription drug detox is uncomfortable or unsafe, on the contrary, prescription drug detox tends to be safer than an alcohol detox. The reason that many people tend to not complete prescription drug detox is that oftentimes persons addicted to prescription drugs hold on to the legitimacy of their drug use and point out that they go to doctors to receive medication and nothing more. It can be difficult to convince someone that needs prescription drug detox to go through with the process.
Completing prescription drug detox is not difficult, staying off prescription drugs is. Many people that use prescription drugs feel that since they receive their drugs through legitimate means, i.e., through a doctor that they do not have the same type of problems that a person who uses cocaine, for example. The truth is that persons that abuse prescription drugs often can do this by manipulating physicians into believing that they have legitimate ailments that require these drugs. Sometimes these persons may have had these ailments in the past, but they may hang on to the symptoms as long as they can.
The signs of needing prescription drug detox include but are not limited to being in possession of prescription bottle received from more than one doctor, prescription bottles from numerous pharmacies, seeking other doctors that are willing to write prescriptions that their primary physician won’t, pills in plastic bags, and mixing medications with other prescription medications or alcohol to increase the effect.
Some of the most commonly prescribed medications in the United States are pain medications and anxiolytics. These are also the most widely abused. Drug detox from pain medications is done using medications, although this detox is not considered life-threatening. Detox from anxiety medications can be life-threatening, especially when these medications are used with alcohol. It is for this reason that it is important to monitor these detox clients medically as well as provide the appropriate medications.
The huge variety of medications and the combinations preclude discussion of specific effects. For more specific prescription drug detox information, please contact us by telephone or email, we are glad to provide assessments at no charge.
