Our Prescription Painkillers Addiction Treatment program in Los Angeles, CA, is designed to help you break free from the cycle of addiction and reclaim your life.
Understanding Prescription Painkillers Addiction
What is Prescription Painkillers Addiction?
Prescription painkillers addiction occurs when an individual becomes physically and psychologically dependent on opioid medications. This addiction can develop quickly due to the potent effects of these drugs on the brain’s reward system. Key signs of prescription painkillers addiction include:
- Increased Tolerance: Needing to take higher doses of the painkillers to achieve the same level of pain relief or euphoria.
- Withdrawal Symptoms: Experiencing symptoms such as nausea, sweating, anxiety, and irritability when not taking the medication.
- Cravings: Intense urges to use the painkillers, often leading to seeking prescriptions from multiple doctors or using illegal means to obtain the drugs.
- Loss of Control: Inability to stop using the painkillers despite the negative consequences it brings to your life.
- Neglecting Responsibilities: Failing to meet obligations at work, school, or home due to painkiller use.
Addiction to prescription painkillers can lead to serious health issues, including overdose, respiratory depression, and an increased risk of using other substances such as heroin. However, with the right treatment, recovery is possible.

Evidence-Based Therapies
We utilize a range of evidence-based therapies to treat prescription painkiller addiction. These therapies are designed to help you manage cravings, address underlying issues, and develop healthier coping strategies. Our therapeutic approaches include:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT helps you identify and challenge the negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to painkiller addiction. It’s particularly effective in helping you develop healthier ways to cope with pain, stress, and triggers.
- Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT): MAT combines the use of medications such as methadone, buprenorphine, or naltrexone with counseling and behavioral therapies. These medications help reduce cravings, manage withdrawal symptoms, and prevent relapse.
- Motivational Interviewing (MI): MI is a client-centered approach that helps you explore and resolve ambivalence about quitting painkillers, enhancing your motivation to change.
- 12-Step Facilitation Therapy: This therapy is based on the principles of Narcotics Anonymous (NA) and helps you engage in a community of support while working through the steps of recovery.
