Heroin addiction and prescription pain killer abuse are of the biggest drug problems facing Americans. With this in mind, it's no surprise that there are increasing numbers of treatment centers in and near San Antonio specializing in this specific type of addiction. A recovery program where all participants are receiving help for opiate dependence and addiction is one which is very focused on the challenges that these clients commonly deal with and what they will need to do to overcome this very dangerous and destructive addiction.
In a treatment program specifically treating opioid addiction, the detoxification process is administered by detox professionals who understand how challenging opioid withdrawal is to overcome. Detoxification in some centers will be medically assisted with prescription medications that can help eliminate or lessen the effects of opiate withdrawal, while other centers may provide an a non-medical approach without the use of medications. Drug free detoxification can be made more comfortable by using various holistic and homeopathic methods and it might be a better choice for individuals who would rather not to rely on medication during and after detox, as is the case with a buprenorphine or methadone type of program. After detox, opioid rehab programs that offer evidenced based therapy practices such a behavioral and cognitive counseling therapies produce the lowest rates of relapse particularly when the person remains in a long term inpatient facility for at least 90 days or more.
