Drug Addiction Treatment

Drug addiction remains a serious public health threat in the U.S., where an estimated 10% of adults reportedly suffered a drug use disorder at some point in their lives. Heroin, painkillers, benzodiazepines, and methamphetamine remain some of the largest drug threats in the country, but people addicted to these substances can be safely treated using evidence-based addiction treatment at a drug rehab center. California Rehab Campus offers medically supervised detox and other science-based therapies in its inpatient residential rehab program to help you or your loved one experience a safe recovery from addiction.

What is Drug Addiction?

Drug addiction is defined as a chronic, relapsing, and complex brain disorder characterized by compulsive drug seeking and drug use despite negative consequences. Chronic use of drugs and alcohol can cause long-lasting changes in the brain that often cannot be changed or improved without evidence-based treatment at a drug rehab center. Many people who suffer from addiction need professional treatment to safely withdraw from drugs and to learn skills that can help them effectively manage stress and stay sober long term.

What is Science-Based Drug Addiction Treatment?

If you think that you or a loved one may be suffering from drug addiction, receiving science-based drug addiction treatment is key to experiencing a safe, long-term recovery. Science-based addiction treatments are carefully evaluated in clinical trials and thoroughly tested for safety and efficacy before being used to treat patients with drug use disorders.

Drug addiction treatment combines FDA-approved medications with behavioral therapies and may also include medically supervised detox if patients are physically dependent on one or more substances. Science-based treatments for drug addiction may include:

Cognitive-behavioral therapy to help patients identify and change harmful attitudes and behaviors related to drug use
Motivational enhancement therapy to motivate patients to change their behavior, stay in treatment, and stay sober long term
Contingency management interventions to help patients stay sober by rewarding them with various incentives and vouchers when they practice positive behaviors
12-step facilitation therapy, such as Narcotics Anonymous, to provide social support and to promote abstinence from drugs and alcohol
Family therapy to improve family dynamics and to help families build healthier home environments
Pharmacotherapy to reduce withdrawal symptoms, help patients stay in treatment, and to prevent relapse
Dual diagnosis therapy to help patients overcome co-occurring mental health disorders such as depression and anxiety
