What Causes Drug Addiction?

Recognizing that you have a problem and deciding to make a change, for many, is the  toughest step toward recovery. Behind almost all addiction is a deeper story—a trigger that drives a person toward substance abuse. Recovering  from an addiction is tough, but it’s much easier when a professional team provides an individualized treatment plan for you.  

  • Safe & Compassionate Withdrawals 
  • 24/7 Support 
  • Life Time Aftercare for Graduates
  • Multi-Center Treatment 

Treatment

There are many options for recovery, finding the right one for you is the second biggest decision in this journey (deciding to get help is the first). Once diagnosed, the treatment doctor/specialist can suggest one or more of the following treatment plans:

  • Detoxifcation & withdrawal therapy:
  • This combined treatment shows promising results in many cases. This  treatment is advised to be carried out by healthcare professionals.
  • Chemical dependency treatment programs: These  combined therapies explain the danger of drug addiction. The treatment  specialist usually decides on which treatment elements to include in the  program.
  • Behavior therapy: Another combined treatment plan performed by a psychologist, psychiatrist, or a licensed alcohol/drug counselor.
  • Peer support groups: Narcotics Anonymous and Alcoholics Anonymous are support groups available for people with drug addiction disorders.

Conclusion: Substance use disorder (SUD) or drug addiction is a major issue in the world we live in today. You or your loved ones may be struggling with this  condition. Even though there is no specific treatment for SUD, with the  help of heart to heart conversations and evidence-based treatment plans under specialist supervision there is a high chance of overcoming this addiction and claiming your life back.

Don’t lose hope because help for you is right here!

Taking the first step takes courage. We're here for you.

Finding a recovery program that meets your needs is the second most important decision you will make (recognizing addiction's power over your life is the first). At Pelagio Recovery we recognize that everyone needs help and support in starting and staying on the pathway to a lifelong recovery.

Medication Assisted Treatment

Suboxone (Buprenorphine)

Vivatrol Monthly Injection

Vivatrol Monthly Injection

Buprenorphine—the main ingredient in suboxone—works by filling opioid  receptors in the brain, thereby fooling them into believing the  individual is still using opioid drugs. Subutex unlike suboxone does not  contain the drug naloxone.

Naltrexone Implant

Vivatrol Monthly Injection

Naltrexone Implant

Naltrexone implants are by far the most superior form of opiate blockers  i.e. opioid antagonists. A small pellet is inserted into the abdominal  region and works by blocking the effects of opiate drugs. The pallet  contains Naltrexone. Once inserted, Naltrexone is slowly inserted into  the host’s bloodstream. This provides a long-term and gradual protection  of all opioid receptors.

Recovery During the Pandemic

Kimberly Phillips, a Nurse Practitioner and chemical dependency therapist at Pelagio Recovery Las Vegas, provides insights for understanding addicts and helping them recover and stay sober during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Medication Assisted Treatment can work in one of two ways.

Breaking the Barriers in Medication-Assisted Treatment

Medication Assisted Detox

For Medication-Assisted Treatment to be  successful, your program will include regular medical appointments,  monitoring medication compliance with advanced DNA confirmed toxicology,  individual and group counseling, peer support groups, life coaching, mediation services, and case management on the basis of yuindividual  needs.

You  may have heard of some of these medications and it is possible you have  even used them in conjunction with other rehabilitation programs. At Pelagio Recovery, we understand that a multi-modal and multi-disciplinary apporach make the difference between success and  relapse.  

The medications we most frequently use include: 

  • Buprenorphine/Naloxone (Soboxone)
  • Naltrexone/Naloxone
  • Extended Release Buprenorphine Injection (Vivatrol)
  • Naltrexone Implant
  • The Bridge Implant
  • Methadone

We  are not a dispensing clinic which means that a prescription is electronically sent to your pharmacy and you will need to pick it up. Exceptions to this are the extended-release medications or implants which are administered or impanted in the clinic.

For Medication-Assisted Treatment to be successful, your program will include regular medical appointments, monitoring medication compliance with advanced DNA confirmed toxicology, individual and group counseling, peer support groups, life coaching, mediation services, and case management on the basis of your individual needs.
