With the advent of pharmaceuticals, we have been witness to a whole new genre of drug abusers and addictions. Illegally trafficked prescription drugs are now one of the DEA’s primary threat groups in the US today. Additionally, the medical community now views certain prescription medications as serious public health threats as well. One of these medications is the drug Klonopin, a benzodiazepine derivative that goes by the technical name of Clonazepam.
There are literally hundreds of addiction treatment and recovery centers that now offer their clients Klonopin addiction treatment programs if they have built up a dependency on the medication and want to recover from their addiction. Klonopin is characterized by its anticonvulsant, anxiolytic, and muscle relaxant properties. The drug is also characterized by a fast onset of its action, high rate of effectiveness, and low toxicity when it is overdosed.
However, it does have serious drawbacks where adverse reactions are concerned. These include cognitive impairments, drowsiness, and paradoxical effects. Cognitive impairments have been known to last for up to 6 months or longer after a withdrawal from Klonopin. This has been witnessed on plenty of occasions when an individual has entered a Klonopin addiction treatment program in order to be treated for their addiction and totally recover so that they can return to society and remain substance-free for life.
It’s difficult to pinpoint the severity of a Klonopin addiction other than to say it just depends on the amount that the individual was ingesting during the period of time that they were using or abusing the drug. This also relates to the length of time that the individual will stay in the Klonopin addiction treatment program as the longer and more severe the addiction to the drug, the longer the length of stay in the program. The best program is the residential type that you will find at the alternative drug rehab rather than the traditional.
You will find that the alternative Klonopin addiction treatment program is offered in a warm and inviting homelike environment situated in a beautiful residential setting. The client is provided with an apartment or dorm like setting to relax in so that they can get the rest that they need during the recovery stage of the process. Additionally, the alternative addiction treatment and recovery center also provides their clients with many of the amenities of home which is also very comforting.
The Delray Recovery Center is a residential addiction treatment and recovery center that offers the client Klonopin addiction treatment programs that can be customized to target their personal needs.
