Prescription drug rehab is by far the best solution towards tackling prescription drug addiction and helping people to regain a sense of normalcy. You can rest assured knowing that you will receive a supervised prescription drug detox, where you’ll be carefully monitored to make sure you remain safe and well. Furthermore, you’ll receive pioneering prescription drugs treatment from high-quality therapists, who’ll be able to get to the root cause of how your dependence started. Such treatments combined can help clients regain physical and mental strength, so you can embark on a new and healthier chapter. Let’s take a closer look at prescription drug rehab and what it entails.
What is prescription drug rehab?
A prescription drug treatment programme is a process that helps people learn healthy coping mechanisms so they no longer rely on medication for emotional support. Whether they’re attending opiate rehab, benzodiazepine rehab or any other prescription drug treatment programme, clients will undergo a medical detox and receive extensive therapy to heal from their dependency – both physically and mentally.
Some people attempt to quit prescription drugs alone. We strongly advise against this as it could be counterproductive and dangerous, given as it has a high risk of relapse and overdose. Meanwhile, in a professional rehab facility such as Sanctuary Lodge, medical specialists will be able to keep an eye out for and eliminate any risks, so you are safe from harm. A prescription drug rehab centre will offer a fresh, and healthy environment that is more likely to help you succeed on your recovery journey.

Choosing the right prescription drug rehab for you
It’s important to make the right decision when choosing which drug rehab to attend. Some things to consider are:
- Whether you opt for NHS rehab or private rehab
- The location of the prescription drug rehab
- The facilities and utilities each prescription drug rehab offers
Public vs. private prescription drug rehab
At first glance, NHS and other public rehab facilities are cheaper than private rehab and may seem a tempting choice. However, the lower costs can come at a high price. Public rehab facilities usually take weeks to admit new residents due to the high volume of clients, and they’re likely to provide a general treatment programme. Whereas private rehab can admit clients straight away and thus provide specialised and thorough prescription drug treatment.
Location of the rehab
The location of the prescription drug rehab treatment programme is important to take into consideration. If the rehab is far from home, you’ll be at a fair distance from your go-to triggers, which could reduce any temptation to relapse. However, choosing to attend a rehab in reasonable proximity to your loved ones will mean that support is also not too far away, and they can visit you for weekly family therapy sessions if you all wish. This is likely to boost you further toward recovery.
