Our Prescription Addiction Treatment Experience
There is a common misconception that prescription drugs are harder to get addicted to because they are prescribed by clinicians. Unfortunately, many prescription drugs are just as potent as illicit drugs and have similar addictive qualities. Misinformation like this is part of the reason why prescription drug addiction is such a pervasive form of substance abuse.
The opioid epidemic and its prevalence of fentanyl highlight how misuse and drug abuse can occur without risk knowledge and protective measures. Despite the challenges of prescription addiction, treatment and recovery are possible. At Profound Treatment, we are dedicated to helping those struggling with SUD achieve sobriety and long-term wellness.

Treatment Modalities & Interventions
Successful treatment for prescription drug addiction may need to incorporate several components for well-being and long-term recovery. The two main categories of drug use disorder treatment are behavioral health treatments, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, and medications. Behavioral health treatments help clients stop drug use by changing unhealthy patterns of thinking and behavior. CBT can be incorporated into several forms of therapy, including individual, family, or group therapy.
Additionally, addiction to prescription opioids can be treated with medications through MAT. Some of the most common medications used in MAT treatment programs include buprenorphine, methadone, and naltrexone. MAT drugs like naltrexone can prevent other opioids from affecting the brain, while buprenorphine and methadone relieve withdrawal symptoms and cravings. Each MAT medication, from naltrexone to Suboxone, supports clients in relapse prevention.
If you or a loved one is suffering from a prescription drug addiction, we can help. At Profound Treatment, we offer treatment programs for each step of the recovery process. Our clinicians will work with you to develop a unique treatment plan that best suits your needs, as no two cases are the same.

When to Seek Help for Substance Use Disorder
Prescription drug abuse refers to using a medication that is intended for prescription use in a way that your doctor did not intend. This could mean anything from taking a friend’s prescription painkillers for a nagging backache or overusing your own prescribed medication to achieve a high. Even if you do not intend to get high, misusing prescription drugs is considered abuse and is often illegal.
Beyond its legal issues, prescription drug abuse can easily put you at risk of developing an addiction if continued. Addiction to prescription drugs happens when you become psychologically and chemically dependent on them. Drug addiction is a serious issue that can lead to negative effects on your mental and physical health and even result in death. Thus, understanding the signs of addiction is invaluable to treatment and recovery. The symptoms of prescription drug addiction vary depending on the drug being abused.
Listed below are some warning signs that you have SUD:
- Taking larger amounts of your prescription than what has been prescribed
- A desire or urge to use substances
- You cannot cut back on or manage your substance use
- Spending a lot of time obtaining or using substances
- Difficulty fulfilling responsibilities at work, school, or at home
- Relationships issues
- Withdrawing from your relationships and social activities
- Continuing substance abuse despite ongoing physical or psychological issues
- Developing tolerance
- Needing a higher dose to get relief
- Experiencing withdrawal symptoms when you stop using substances
- Stealing pills
- Doctor shopping
- Going to multiple doctors to get multiple prescriptions for the same medication
- Claiming to lose prescriptions
- Frequently needing early refills
- Drowsiness or confusion
- Extreme highs and lows in energy and mood

Early Intervention Matters
Medications like opioids, benzodiazepines, and stimulants, when misused, can lead to severe physical and mental health consequences. Opioid addiction, for instance, is often associated with a heightened risk of overdose, as these drugs depress the respiratory system, potentially leading to death. Benzodiazepine misuse can result in profound sedation, memory impairment, and dangerous withdrawal symptoms, including seizures. Whereas stimulants, such as those prescribed for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), can lead to cardiovascular issues, anxiety, and psychosis when abused. Long-term misuse of prescription drugs can also lead to chronic health problems, such as liver and kidney damage, cognitive decline, and increased vulnerability to other forms of substance abuse.
