Assisstance For Recovery That Lasts
Those battling drug and alcohol addiction disorder may be scared to take medications. However, medication management is critical for both recovery and rehab treatments. Medication management in Utah can significantly relieve suffering from addiction and other mental health disorders.
Spirit Mountain Recovery offers medication management in Utah by a medical doctor who is also a Board-Certified Psychiatrist. The doctor can assess and diagnose substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders. Each individual is medically and psychiatrically assessed upon admission for individualized care. From there, the doctor determines if a person needs detox before admission.
Medication management covers various services geared toward providing the proper medication to patients recovering from drug and alcohol abuse disorders. Medication management ensures that every patient gets the proper, personalized treatment in a safe, error-free, professional manner while in recovery.
A proper medication management regime also ensures that patients leave rehab with stable and manageable medication if applicable to their recovery. Plus, medication management goes beyond in-house recovery.
Medication management is often initially required so a person can physically and mentally take on therapy. In some cases, medication may be a long-term need. For example, some mental health issues are caused, at least in part, by chemical imbalances in the brain. The proper course of medication addresses these imbalances for correction.
According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services (SAMHSA), a treatment program that pairs medication and cognitive-behavioral therapy or other types of counseling is often the most effective course of action for successful long-term recovery.
If medication management is an option, here are some things to know.
Medication management is often required to treat addiction symptoms and get a person to the point where they can positively interact with therapy. For example, a chemical imbalance will intensify some addiction problems. The proper medication can address these imbalances. Medication management can be crucial to help patients through withdrawal periods. For instance, medicine can offer individuals great relief in the first days and weeks of getting off a hard drug such as heroin.
The doctor may start with a basic prescription to see what side effects occur. From there, they can tell what medications will be the most effective. The goal is to find a prescription that works best for each patient while resolving medication issues quickly and efficiently. Spirit Mountain Recovery’s medication management in Utah offers various services to ensure each patient gets the proper medication and dose unique to them to help free the body and mind from addiction. All patients are active in their unique treatment. Everyone can weigh in on their goals and preferences regarding medication. Excellent medication management includes:
