Prescription Drug Addiction - Los Angeles

Prescription drug addiction has become a national epidemic, affecting millions of individuals and families. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), approximately 14.3 million people misused prescription drugs in the United States in 2021 alone. This alarming statistic highlights the widespread nature of the crisis, and Los Angeles is no exception. At Refine Recovery, we provide a safe and supportive environment for individuals struggling with prescription drug addiction. Our evidence-based treatments and compassionate care are designed to address the unique challenges of prescription drug dependency. Located in a serene, luxury setting, we offer a patient-centered approach that empowers individuals to overcome addiction and build a foundation for long-lasting recovery.

Understanding Prescription Drug Addiction

Prescription drugs play a critical role in managing pain, anxiety, and attention disorders, but their misuse can lead to addiction and life-altering consequences. Misuse occurs when individuals take higher doses than prescribed, use medication not intended for them, or take drugs for non-medical reasons.

In 2019, 93% of prescribers had access to a Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP) in their state, according to the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA). However, a report by the CDC highlights that only about 53% of them actively used PDMP data when prescribing opioids. This discrepancy underscores the importance of integrating PDMP checks into routine prescribing practices to improve patient safety and reduce the risk of opioid misuse or overdose. Misuse of prescription drugs spans various categories, including:

Opioids: Prescribed for pain relief but highly addictive, opioids are a leading cause of prescription drug-related fatalities.
Benzodiazepines: Used for anxiety and sleep disorders, these medications are known for their high dependency risk, especially when combined with other substances.
Stimulants: Prescribed for conditions like ADHD, stimulants are often misused to boost performance or energy, increasing the risk of addiction.
Sedative-Hypnotics: Medications like zolpidem (Ambien) and eszopiclone (Lunesta), prescribed for insomnia, can lead to dependency and are frequently misused.
Muscle Relaxants: Drugs such as carisoprodol (Soma) and cyclobenzaprine (Flexeril) are sometimes abused for their sedative effects.
Anticonvulsants: Medications like gabapentin (Neurontin) and pregabalin (Lyrica) are increasingly misused for their calming and pain-relieving effects.
Antidepressants: While less commonly abused, certain antidepressants, like bupropion (Wellbutrin), may be misused for their stimulant-like effects.

At Refine Recovery, we are committed to helping individuals overcome prescription drug addiction through evidence-based treatment programs designed to address the unique risks and challenges of these medications.

Our Treatment Programs for Prescription Drug Addiction

Refine Recovery’s treatment philosophy integrates evidence-based practices, holistic therapies, and a trauma-informed approach to ensure every client receives personalized, comprehensive care. By addressing the physical, emotional, and psychological aspects of addiction, we help individuals recover and build a strong foundation for lasting sobriety. Our programs are tailored to meet each client’s unique needs, encompassing a broad range of addiction types, as detailed in what we treat. From detoxification to holistic therapies, our comprehensive approach ensures every individual receives the support needed to thrive in recovery.

Detoxification

Detoxification is the critical first step in addressing prescription drug addiction. Our medically supervised detox program offers a safe and comfortable process for clients withdrawing from prescription drugs. Under the care of our dedicated medical team, we manage the physical and mental symptoms of withdrawal to minimize discomfort and reduce the risk of relapse. Throughout detox, our on-site medical director closely monitors each client, ensuring their safety and preparing them for the next stages of recovery. This personalized care paves the way for successful, long-term treatment.

Residential Inpatient Treatment

Once detox is complete, clients transition to our residential inpatient program, where the focus shifts to deeper healing and recovery. This phase addresses the underlying causes of addiction through a variety of therapeutic approaches. Individual therapy sessions utilize evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to help clients identify and change destructive patterns of thought and behavior. Group therapy builds a sense of community and mutual support among clients, fostering shared experiences and understanding. Clients also participate in experiential therapies such as surfing, Muay Thai, yoga, and art therapy, which help them reconnect with their passions and rediscover the joys of a life free from addiction.

Holistic and Trauma-Informed Care

Addiction is often rooted in trauma, which is why we incorporate trauma-informed care into all aspects of treatment. This approach creates a safe and supportive environment where clients can process unresolved emotional pain without fear or judgment. We integrate holistic practices that address the body, mind, and spirit to enhance recovery further. Breathwork and meditation promote mindfulness and emotional regulation, helping clients manage stress and achieve inner calm. Somatic therapy focuses on releasing tension and stress stored in the body, fostering physical and emotional healing. Music and art therapy provide influential therapeutic outlets, encouraging creative expression and personal growth.

This comprehensive blend of science-backed treatments and holistic modalities allows clients to heal physically, mentally, and emotionally on every level. At Refine Recovery, we are committed to guiding clients toward a future of lasting recovery and a fulfilling, addiction-free life.
