Prescription Drug Addiction Treatment
Prescription drugs treat real problems, and dependence can start without you ever misusing a single dose. At Bennett Recovery, treatment covers the full range, from safe medical detox through long-term aftercare. You get care built on proven methods, matched to how your dependence actually developed.
How Bennett Recovery Treats Prescription Drug Addiction
Prescription drug addiction usually starts with a legitimate prescription. Opioids for pain, benzodiazepines for anxiety, stimulants for attention. Over time your body adapts, the dose stops working, and stopping on your own feels impossible.
Treatment starts with a clinical assessment that sets your level of care. If withdrawal is a risk, and with opioids and benzodiazepines it often is, you begin with medical detox so symptoms are managed by staff instead of endured alone. Benzo withdrawal in particular can be dangerous without supervision.
From there you move into residential treatment or an outpatient program, depending on what your life and recovery need. If anxiety, depression, or trauma is part of the picture, you treat it alongside the addiction, not in a separate track that ignores the connection.
Therapies We Use
No two people arrive with the same history, so your care plan is built to fit yours. It combines therapies with a track record: cognitive behavioral therapy to change the thinking that drives use, group therapy to practice honesty with people who get it, and family support to repair the relationships around you. When it's clinically appropriate, medication-assisted treatment is part of the plan too.
