Prescription Drug Rehab In Lexington, KY

Prescription drug addiction often begins with medically necessary use. Over time, the brain adapts, leading to increased tolerance and dependence. Opioids, benzodiazepines, stimulants, and sleep aids flood the brain with artificial neurotransmitters, dulling natural pleasure responses and creating physical withdrawal when doses are missed. What begins as therapeutic use can spiral into pill-seeking behaviors, emotional distress, and compulsive misuse without proper support.

• Opioids (e.g., oxycodone, hydrocodone) for pain relief and euphoria

• Benzodiazepines (e.g., Xanax®, Valium®) for anxiety and sedation

• Sleep medications (e.g., zolpidem) for rest but risk rebound insomnia

• Stimulants (e.g., Adderall®, Ritalin®) for focus, energy, or appetite suppression
  Their quick effects, wide availability, and dopamine-enhancing properties make these drugs particularly prone to misuse and dependence—even when originally prescribed.

Watch for:

• Physical signs: nodding off, tremors, track marks, slurred speech, memory gaps

• Behavioral patterns: doctor-shopping, missing work, hiding pills, financial strain

• Emotional symptoms: anxiety between doses, depression, social withdrawal
  If multiple signs are present, especially over weeks or months, it’s time to consider professional treatment.

Your first visit includes a 60-minute assessment with a nurse and therapist to review your medication use, medical history, and withdrawal risk. If needed, we’ll schedule lab work or EKGs the same day. You’ll receive a written safety plan, your treatment schedule, and direct contact with your primary therapist—ensuring you feel supported from day one.

• PHP (Partial Hospitalization Program): 6–8 hours/day, 5 days/week

• IOP (Intensive Outpatient Program): 3–5 days/week, 3–4 hours/day

• OP (Outpatient Program): 1–2 therapy sessions/week
  These step-down options match your progress, starting with high structure and tapering as confidence grows.

We combine:

• CBT and DBT for thought and emotion management

• Medication-Assisted Treatment (e.g., Suboxone, tapering plans)

• Contingency Management and Motivational Interviewing for behavior change

• EMDR & Brainspotting to address trauma

• Holistic supports like yoga, mindfulness, and nutrition coaching
  This integrative model supports both neurological healing and lifestyle transformation.

Most clients engage in care for 30, 60, or 90 days, depending on severity, number of medications used, and co-occurring mental health conditions. Early stabilization may require more time in PHP, while others step down to IOP or OP sooner. The flexibility of our outpatient model ensures consistent support without derailing work, school, or family responsibilities.
