Alaska Benzodiazepine Detox and Rehab Centers

When battling dependency or addiction to benzodiazepines in Alaska, getting help at a drug rehab center is the best option for long-lasting recovery. Alaska has many different treatment options available to help the people in the state overcome their addiction to benzos. Abuse of benzos has increased due to the fact that addiction and dependency can happen even if you are prescribed these medications by your doctor or have procured them illegally. 

How to know if a drug rehab center can handle addiction to benzodiazepines through their program? 

Treatment for benzodiazepines through an inpatient drug rehab center can be a great option if you can take the time off of work to enter into a treatment program. Benzo addiction usually starts with detox and then counseling with a possible medication replacement and adjustments for those with underlying mental health concerns. 

Becoming addicted to this medication doesn’t discriminate between someone that is prescribed this medication or who has come to use it through illegal means. With prolonged use of benzos, there is always a risk of developing tolerance, which has been proven to elevate the need for more of the medication to produce the same desired effect.  Once an individual finds themselves in need for more medications and starts increasing their dosage the chances of a dangerous life-threatening dependency go up exponentially. 

Medical Detox Centers 

Inpatient medical detox centers in Alaska that specialize in the withdrawal from benzos will offer the best option for detox in a medically supervised setting. If you are currently taking benzodiazepine and are wanting to stop, make sure that you consult your doctor to avoid a trip to the emergency room.

Benzo Overdose

With more people prescribed benzodiazepines in Alaska there has been a significant rise in the overdose rate involving both benzos and opioids. When a person has a prescription for benzos and consumes either alcohol or an opioid, the risks of a fatal overdose are increased. The main risk of mixing both alcohol and benzos is that you could fall asleep and never wake up due to both drugs being sedatives. 

Benzodiazepine addiction has become commonplace in American society with more than 27% of adults over the age of 18 prescribed this medication every year. That is 27 people out of every 100 people who see a doctor for the year went to either fill a prescription for benzos or get a new prescription in 1 year’s time. This is a staggering number that has been affecting the senior population more than any other population group in the country.
