West Palm Beach Ativan Detox

The first step that you need to take to recover from Ativan addiction is to enter a medically-supervised detox program. You need to fully detox from the painful Ativan withdrawal symptoms before you proceed with a drug rehab program. While undergoing detox, you’ll have access to around the clock clinical supervision, counseling, and 12-step meetings.

An increase in tolerance to Ativan signifies physical dependency on the drug. This means that a higher amount will be required for the same effects to be achieved. That’s how addiction starts, leading to a never-ending cycle of abuse and withdrawal.

Detoxification refers to the process of allowing the body to eliminate all traces of a substance. The process usually is accompanied by unpleasant withdrawal symptoms.  These painful symptoms of withdrawal are often the reason why many people stay stuck in the cycle of addiction. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, detox should be accompanied by behavioral-based therapy and medication so that the best results can be achieved.

It All Starts With drug detox

The risk of relapse is one of the reasons why it is not recommended to detox at home. Due to the difficult nature of withdrawal, it is advisable to detox under the supervision of clinical experts so that the patient can have timely access to psychological assistance whenever rebound anxiety occurs during the detox process. Our West Palm Beach Ativan Detox offers all of the counseling, support,  and structured supervision needed to recover safely from these types of addictions.

Evidence-based clinical treatment will go a long way in preventing a benzodiazepine addict from relapsing. Some of the most uncomfortable symptoms that can be experienced during the Ativan withdrawal process include:

  • Cravings
  • Insomnia
  • Sweating
  • Irritability
  • Headaches
  • Nausea
  • Poor concentration
  • Anxiety
  • Stiffness or muscle aches
  • Increased heart rate
