Opioid Addiction
Treating Opioid Use Disorder is our area of expertise and the most specialized part of our practice. We offer confidential, personalized treatment of addiction to opioid prescription pills and heroin. Our office is private yet affordable, with compassionate Suboxone® (buprenorphine/naloxone) licensed physicians who listen carefully and provide the highest quality care. Evolve Addiction Medicine is focused on long term recovery. We are discreet and protect your privacy. During your time in our program, we help you gain the necessary tools to live free of drugs.
Suboxone® / Subutex®
Suboxone® or Subutex® is the evidence-based and best practice treatment of choice for Opioid Use Disorder. The main benefit to patients is its ability to eliminate opioid withdrawal sickness and reduce opioid cravings.
Our physicians offer outpatient medical detoxification from alcohol in the privacy of our office, your home, hotel room, or the place of your choosing. Alcohol withdrawal is a dangerous medical condition and should be taken seriously. Evolve Addiction Medicine can help.
We offer outpatient medical detoxification from benzodiazepines such as Xanax® (alprazolam), Valium®(diazepam), Ativan® (lorazepam), and Klonopin® (clonazepam). Successful benzodiazepine detoxification requires a slow taper over several months with regular office visits and close follow-up. Detoxification from benzodiazepines is difficult, but possible, and Evolve Addiction Medicine can help.
Cocaine Addiction
Cocaine addiction is a treatable disease, and there are a variety of medications which can be used successfully in combination with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). It CAN be overcome, and Evolve Addiction Medicine will help.
Methamphetamine Addiction
Similar to Cocaine addiction, methamphetamine addiction is a difficult but treatable problem. There are medications available to treat methamphetamine addiction, in combination with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Call to schedule your appointment today, and let the experts at Evolve Addiction Medicine help.
Nicotine / Tobacco Addiction
We treat nicotine addiction with Chantix® (Varenicline), a medication that helps with nicotine craving and withdrawal symptoms. It also blocks the effects of nicotine from tobacco. If you smoke while taking Varenicline, the medication lowers the sense of satisfaction you get from smoking, improving the odds you will quit. Varenicline does not contain nicotine and does not help you quit smoking in the same way nicotine replacement therapy does. You start taking Varenicline one week before quitting and is taken for a total of 12 weeks. A second 12-week cycle may be completed if necessary. We prescribe Varenicline to help you quit smoking. It is not available over-the-counter. Varenicline has not been studied in children and is not recommended to help them quit smoking. Varenicline doubles or triples the chances of quitting smoking. It has been shown to work better than other medications for smoking cessation.
MDMA / Ecstasy Addiction
Similar to methamphetamine addiction, MDMA/Ecstasy addiction can be a difficult problem to treat. However, there are medications available which can be used. Call today to learn how our board-certified physicians can help.
Marijuana Addiction
Marijuana can be addictive. If you have a desire to stop using marijuana, please call to discuss treatment options.
Hallucinogen / LSD Addiction
There are medications available to treat hallucinogen dependence. Please call to schedule an appointment and discuss how we can help.
Inhalant Addiction
Although addiction to inhalants is rare, it does happen. The treatment is primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). There are also medications which can be used in conjunction with CBT. Let us see how we may help.
Outpatient Medical Detox
MEDICALLY SUPERVISED WITHDRAWAL: We offer outpatient medical detoxification in the privacy of our office. Our physicians work with you privately, formulating a taper schedule that’s completed over the course of weeks, a week, or a weekend, weaning patients off the substance of abuse. This allows patients to avoid admission to an inpatient detox facility and provides a more personalized, less public experience. Private detoxification is evaluated on a case by case basis. Please call to discuss rates and treatment options.
Experts in detoxifying patients from alcohol, heroin, and prescription pain killers such as Oxycontin®, Percocet®, Norco®, Vicodin®, Lortab®, morphine, Dilaudid®, and Ultram®. We also provide outpatient medical detoxification for Xanax® (alprazolam), Ativan® (lorazepam), Klonopin® (clonazepam), Valium® (diazepam), phenobarbital, and Ambien®.
Relapse Prevention Medications
We offer three prescription medications for the prevention of relapse on opioids and alcohol: Revia® (naltrexone), Antabuse® (disulfiram), and Campral® (acamprosate). Naltrexone prevents and blocks cravings for opioids and alcohol. It also blocks the pleasurable effects or rewards experienced when opioids and alcohol are consumed. Antabuse® works through negative feedback causing headaches, facial flushing, tachycardia, nausea, and sometimes vomiting when alcohol is consumed. Campral® reduces alcohol cravings.
Medical Detoxification
Superior to other methods of detoxification (such as social detoxification) because it decreases the risk of medical complications of withdrawal and provides more comfort to patients as they go through the withdrawal process. Our physicians offer outpatient medical detoxification from alcohol in the privacy of our office, your home, hotel room, or the place of your choosing.
Suboxone® (buprenorphine/naloxone) is a special formulation containing both buprenorphine and naloxone. Subutex® (buprenorphine) is a partial opioid agonist that binds to the brain and body’s opioid receptor cells. This action causes a dramatic reduction in opioid withdrawal symptoms such as nausea, chills, and diarrhea, thus allowing patients to resume a normal life. Suboxone® (buprenorphine/naloxone) became readily available to consumers in 2002 when it was approved by the U.S. Federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA) following years of research proving the efficacy of Subutex® (buprenorphine), the active ingredient in Suboxone® (buprenorphine/naloxone) which alleviates opioid withdrawal). Suboxone® (buprenorphine/naloxone) is taken by mouth and dissolved under the tongue, where it is absorbed through the mucosal lining and into the bloodstream. The appropriate dosage varies for each person and is individualized to their needs based on the duration and intensity of their opioid withdrawal symptoms. Your buprenorphine-approved physician will work with you on arriving at the most effective Suboxone® (buprenorphine/naloxone) dosage that eliminates your opioid withdrawal. Suboxone® (buprenorphine/naloxone) is a slow onset, long-lasting medication with a much longer duration of action than typical prescription opioids or heroin, and it remains active in a person’s system for a full 24 hours or longer. This results in sustained relief from opioids withdrawal and allows the individual to resume normal life and function instead of struggling with the anxiety of securing opioids to avoid debilitating withdrawal sickness.
Alcohol Addiction
Our physicians offer outpatient medical detoxification from alcohol in the privacy of our office, your home, hotel room, or the place of your choosing.
Alcohol detoxification is a medically supervised withdrawal process. This is accomplished by giving long-acting medications that work on the same receptor system as alcohol. The medication is given in tapering doses over a period of days to weeks. The class of drugs used for outpatient alcohol detox are called benzodiazepines. In our practice, we use Ativan® (lorazepam) or Librium® (chlordiazepoxide).
Alcohol withdrawal is diagnosed by a combination of abnormal vital signs, malaise, anxiety, irritability, and tremors. This results when the body has a physical dependence on alcohol. This occurs when a person drinks throughout the day and evening.
ALCOHOL WITHDRAWAL IS A DANGEROUS MEDICAL CONDITION: Alcohol withdrawal should be taken extremely seriously. The most important reason for detoxification is to prevent life-threatening complications, which include withdrawal seizures and delirium tremens (“DTs”). Delirium tremens is manifested by hallucinations and unstable vital signs. A patient’s safety for outpatient medical detoxification from alcohol is evaluated on a case by case basis.
We also treat alcoholism with baclofen, Topamax® (topiramate), and Neurontin® (gabapentin). We are willing to try the Sinclair Method, a treatment option in which patients continue drinking as normal, but take naltrexone 50mg one hour before drinking. Over time this leads to reduced cravings, reduced drinking, and sometimes even complete cessation. This model of treatment is known as pharmacological extinction.
