DETOX FOR BENZOS

Safe Withdrawal from Benzodiazepines

Benzodiazepines, often prescribed for anxiety, insomnia, and other conditions, can lead to physical dependence over time. Withdrawal from these medications can be particularly challenging, but at Gallus Medical Detox, we’re committed to ensuring a safe, comfortable, and supportive detox experience.

Understanding Benzodiazepine Withdrawal

Withdrawal from benzodiazepines can present a variety of symptoms, such as:

Anxiety or panic attacks
Insomnia and sleep disturbances
Tremors and muscle spasms
Irritability and mood swings
Nausea and vomiting
Seizures in severe cases
Sensitivity to light and sound

Our Approach to Benzodiazepine Detox

Unlike other substances, abrupt cessation of benzodiazepines can be dangerous. We employ a gradual tapering approach, reducing dosages methodically to minimize withdrawal symptoms.

Withdrawing from benzodiazepines requires specialized care and expertise. At Gallus Medical Detox, we prioritize your well-being, ensuring that your journey towards a benzodiazepine-free life is as smooth and comfortable as possible.

Drug Detox FAQs

What is drug detox?

Drug detox is the process of removing toxins from the body that have accumulated due to prolonged drug use. It's the first step in the recovery process, preparing the individual for further treatment and therapy.

How long does drug detox last?

The duration of the detox process varies depending on the substance, the duration of use, the individual's physical condition, and other factors. Typically, detox can last anywhere from a few days to several weeks.

Is drug detox painful?

Withdrawal symptoms can be uncomfortable, but at facilities like Gallus Medical Detox, the goal is to make the process as painless as possible through medical supervision and appropriate interventions.

Can I detox at home?

While some attempt to detox at home, it's not recommended, especially for substances like opioids and benzodiazepines. Medical supervision ensures safety, manages withdrawal symptoms, and reduces the risk of complications.

What happens after detox?

Detox is just the first step. After detox, individuals typically transition to further treatment, which can include therapy, counseling, support groups, and other recovery programs.

Are there medications to help with detox?

Yes, certain medications can help manage withdrawal symptoms and cravings. The type of medication depends on the substance of addiction and individual needs.

Is detox the same as rehab?

No, detox focuses on clearing the body of drugs and managing withdrawal symptoms. Rehab, on the other hand, addresses the psychological, behavioral, and social aspects of addiction.

How do I know if I need detox?

If you're experiencing withdrawal symptoms when you stop using a substance or if you're unable to quit despite wanting to, it might be time to consider detox. Consulting with a medical professional or addiction specialist can provide clarity.

Will my insurance cover drug detox?

Many insurance plans cover drug detox, but coverage varies. It's essential to check with your insurance provider or the detox facility to understand the costs and coverage.

What should I bring to a detox facility?

Each facility has its guidelines, but generally, you'll want to bring personal identification, a list of medications, comfortable clothing, and personal care items. It's best to check with the facility beforehand. We allow smoking and vaping in our Las Vegas, Denver, and Scottsdale locations so patients can bring their cigarettes or vaping devices. Cellphones, tablets, and laptop computers are also permitted as long as the use of these devices does not interfere with your detox treatment.

MEDICATION ASSISTED TREATMENT

Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) During Detox

At Gallus Medical Detox, we recognize the complexities of substance withdrawal and the challenges it presents. As part of our comprehensive approach to detoxification, we incorporate medication-assisted treatment (MAT) to ensure a safer, more comfortable experience for our patients.

How MAT Works in Our Detox Programs

Within our benzodiazepine, painkiller, and opioid treatment programs:

Our experienced physicians and clinical care providers administer a partial agonist to assist with alleviating opioid withdrawal symptoms.
We utilize FDA-approved medications such as buprenorphine. These play a crucial role in reducing cravings, alleviating uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms, and significantly lowering the risk of opioid overdose.

The Benefits of MAT During Detox

Reduced Cravings
Alleviated Withdrawal Symptoms
Lowered Risk of Overdose
Decreased Relapse Potential

Our primary goal at Gallus Medical Detox is to ensure the well-being of our patients. By integrating a physician-guided approach to opioid and substance detoxification, we minimize the risks associated with withdrawal and set our patients on a path to recovery with the utmost care and support.
