Heroin Detox Program in Los Angeles, California
Detox from Heroin
Our Heroin Detox Program in Los Angeles, CA
Heroin addiction takes a heavy toll on your brain and body. Your systems become dependent on heroin to operate normally, and your brain undergoes chemical changes, making it difficult to detox on your own.
At Clear Behavioral Health, we understand just how challenging withdrawal can be. We offer compassionate, medically assisted heroin detox to help you get through this process safely, significantly reducing your risk of relapse.
Assessment
What to Expect After Detoxing From Heroin
Medically assisted detox from heroin helps to break the physical bonds of your addiction. However, you must also address the underlying issues behind addiction to increase your chances of lasting recovery.
Most clients who enter heroin detox will transition into our residential treatment program to begin this process. By attending our addiction programs at Clear Behavioral Health, you’ll participate in a variety of individual, group and holistic therapies that will help you understand the underlying reasons behind your substance abuse as well as develop healthier coping mechanisms you can use once you leave our program.

What medications are used for heroin detox?
The medications we use to maximize the safety and comfort of the detox process vary based on the severity of your opioid withdrawal symptoms. Medications such as methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone are opioid agonists which interfere with the rewarding effects of heroin. These medications can help manage heroin withdrawal symptoms including pain, nausea, vomiting and cravings.
At Clear, medications are only used under the supervision of a licensed medical professional and when necessary. Our strong belief is that medications are just one part of a personalized, comprehensive treatment plan, used in combination with our treatment programs. All medication decisions are made in collaboration with your needs, and medication selection is dependent on your unique medical history, current health status, health goals and other factors.
