Prescription Drug Rehab

Prescription drugs are pharmaceutical-grade substances that require prescriptions from certified physicians. Unfortunately, prescription pill addiction is extremely prevalent in the US, and rates of addiction in San Diego are only escalating. Many people who suffer from serious injuries are at risk of developing an addiction to pain pills. Adolescents may also recreationally abuse prescription pills. Rates of teenage prescription drug abuse has also been surging within the California area. Commonly abused prescriptions usually consist of opioid pain relievers, amphetamines (such as Adderall and Ritalin), anti-anxiety medications and sedatives.

What is Prescription Drug Addiction

Some people believe that abusing pills is not as harmful as other narcotics like crystal methamphetamine or heroin because medical doctors prescribe them. However, this is a fallacy. Prescription medications, when used within their recommended doses are safer than other illegal substances. Unfortunately, this doesn’t always happen. Recreational use of prescription meds entails that the substances are administered in much higher quantities than their prescribed limits. Besides overdosing, these drug users and their love ones could face many other obstacles. As family and friends look to recovery as the answer to addiction to prescribed medications, it is important to find a rehabilitation facility that specializes in prescription pill addiction. With Real Hope Recovery, we have specialized clinicians ready to help with prescription drug addiction. Give us a call when you are ready to start.

The intensity of the withdrawal symptoms largely depends on the drugs the user used: pairing alcohol with many of these drugs is a dangerous mix.

The severity of their drug addiction, physical health, and other psychological factors also affect detox.
