      Commonly Asked Questions about Addiction and Treatment

      What medications are used for the treatment of addiction?

      Several medications have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of addiction to alcohol and certain types of drugs. The specific medication used can depend on the substance the person is addicted to, their overall health, and other individual factors. Here are a few examples:

      For Alcohol Addiction:

      • Disulfiram (Antabuse): This medication causes unpleasant effects such as nausea and flushing of the skin if a person drinks alcohol. The aim is to discourage them from drinking.
      • Naltrexone (Revia, Vivitrol): Naltrexone blocks the euphoric and sedative effects of alcohol, helping to reduce cravings.
      • Acamprosate (Campral): Acamprosate works by restoring the balance of certain chemicals in the brain that may become disrupted due to alcohol addiction. It can help people maintain abstinence from alcohol after they quit drinking.

      For Opioid Addiction:

      • Methadone: This is a long-acting opioid agonist that can prevent withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings for opioids. It is dispensed through specialized opioid treatment programs.
      • Buprenorphine (Subutex, Suboxone): Buprenorphine is a partial opioid agonist that can help manage cravings and withdrawal symptoms. Suboxone also contains naloxone to prevent misuse.
      • Naltrexone (Revia, Vivitrol): Like its use in alcohol addiction treatment, naltrexone can block the euphoric effects of opioids.

      For Nicotine Addiction:

      • Nicotine Replacement Therapies (NRTs): These come in various forms like gums, patches, lozenges, nasal sprays, and inhalers, and can help manage withdrawal symptoms and cravings when quitting smoking.
      • Bupropion (Zyban): Initially developed as an antidepressant, bupropion can also help reduce cravings and the symptoms of nicotine withdrawal.
      • Varenicline (Chantix): Varenicline helps reduce cravings for nicotine and decrease the pleasurable effects of cigarettes and other tobacco products.

      Where can I get help for my addiction to drugs with very little money?

      If you're seeking help for your addiction to drugs and have limited financial resources, there are several options available to you. These organizations and services can provide support, counseling, and treatment at little to no cost:

      • National Helplines: Our own helpline (1-877-882-9275) or the SAMHSA National Helpline (1-800-662-HELP) provides free, confidential, 24/7 assistance in English and Spanish.
      • Local Support Groups: Many communities have support groups, such as Narcotics Anonymous (NA) or SMART Recovery, that offer peer-to-peer support and resources for individuals struggling with addiction. These meetings are typically free and can be found in various locations.
      • Non-profit and Faith-based Organizations: Some non-profit and faith-based organizations offer free or low-cost addiction treatment services, such as counseling, group therapy, and recovery programs. Contact local community centers, churches, mosques, or synagogues to inquire about available resources.
      • Sliding Scale Treatment Centers: Some addiction treatment centers offer services on a sliding scale, meaning they adjust fees based on your income level. Contact local treatment centers and inquire about their financial assistance options.
      • State-Funded Treatment Programs: Many states provide funding for addiction treatment programs that offer free or low-cost services to eligible residents. Contact your state's health department or substance abuse agency to learn more about available programs.
      • Medicaid: If you are eligible for Medicaid, it may cover substance abuse treatment services, including detoxification, counseling, and medication-assisted therapy. Check with your state's Medicaid office for more information on covered services and eligibility requirements.

      How do I know if a long term drug rehab is right for me?

      Deciding on the right form of treatment for drug addiction is a highly personal decision, and it depends on a variety of factors. Here are some key considerations to help you determine if long-term drug rehab might be the right choice for you:

      • Severity and Duration of Addiction: If you've been struggling with addiction for a long time, or if your substance use is severe, long-term rehab might be the most effective option. This is because it provides a more extended period of structured support and therapy, which can be beneficial in breaking longstanding patterns of substance use.
      • Previous Treatment Attempts: If you've attempted shorter treatment programs in the past and haven't been successful in maintaining sobriety, a longer-term program could be more beneficial.
      • Co-occurring Disorders: If you're dealing with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorders �'' such as addiction along with depression, anxiety, or another mental health condition �'' a long-term rehab program can provide the comprehensive care needed to address both issues concurrently.
      • Support at Home: If your home environment is not conducive to recovery �'' for instance, if there are other substance users in the home, or if it's a high-stress environment �'' a long-term rehab facility can provide a safer, more supportive environment for recovery.
      • Physical Dependence: If you've developed a physical dependence on a substance, particularly if withdrawal symptoms are severe or potentially dangerous, a long-term rehab program can provide the medical supervision necessary to ensure a safe detoxification process.
      • Desire for a Comprehensive Approach: Long-term rehab programs typically offer a comprehensive approach to recovery, including medical care, therapy, skill-building, and sometimes vocational training. If you're seeking a program that addresses multiple aspects of recovery, long-term rehab might be a good fit.

      Remember, this decision should be made in consultation with healthcare professionals, such as a primary care physician, a psychiatrist, or an addiction specialist. They can provide an assessment of your situation and offer professional recommendations based on your specific needs and circumstances.
