Prescription medications can be life-saving — but when misused, they can also be life-threatening. Amity Palm Beach is here to help, with targeted prescription drug rehab. Many individuals begin taking prescription drugs for valid medical or psychological reasons, only to find themselves dependent, emotionally unstable, or caught in a cycle of misuse they never saw coming.
At Amity Palm Beach, we provide specialized outpatient treatment for individuals struggling with prescription drug addiction, especially when it’s accompanied by mental health challenges like anxiety, trauma, depression, or ADHD. Our dual diagnosis program helps address not only the physical dependence, but the emotional drivers that make prescription drug use so hard to stop.
Commonly Misused Prescription Drugs We Treat
Our program offers care for a wide range of medications that are commonly misused, including:
Opioids (Oxycodone, Hydrocodone, Morphine, Fentanyl)
Benzodiazepines (Xanax, Klonopin, Ativan, Valium)
Stimulants (Adderall, Ritalin, Vyvanse)
Sleep medications (Ambien, Lunesta)
Muscle relaxants or off-label sedatives
Many people using these drugs are also dealing with mental health conditions — which may have led to the prescription in the first place. But over time, tolerance builds, behavior changes, and the original symptoms often worsen.
Signs of Prescription Drug Addiction and Co-Occurring Issues
Needing more medication to feel the same effects
Running out of prescriptions early or seeking extra supply
Using pills to cope with emotional distress, not just physical symptoms
Experiencing anxiety, depression, or mood swings without the medication
Difficulty functioning or sleeping without use
Doctor shopping or using others’ medications
Decline in work, school, or relationships
Fear of withdrawal or being without the drug
When these signs are present, especially alongside mental health struggles, integrated dual diagnosis treatment is often the safest and most effective option.
Our Approach to Prescription Drug Treatment
At Amity Palm Beach, we offer personalized, outpatient care through our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) — designed for people who need significant support while remaining in their community or transitional housing.
Treatment includes:
Psychiatric assessment and diagnosis
Medication management, including tapering or safer alternatives
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Trauma-focused therapy, if needed
Relapse prevention and emotion regulation training
Family therapy and psychoeducation
Peer support and alumni programming
Each client receives an individualized plan that adapts to their evolving needs and challenges.
Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)
For certain prescription drug dependencies — especially opioids or benzodiazepines — MAT can be an effective bridge to long-term recovery. We offer:
Suboxone and Naltrexone for opioid dependency
Careful tapering and supportive medications for benzo withdrawal
Adjunct medications for sleep, anxiety, or mood when clinically appropriate
Our medical and psychiatric teams monitor your progress closely, adjusting treatment for safety and success.
