There are several options for you when you decide to begin treatment for your Vicodin problems. The first decision you will have to make is whether you should enter an inpatient or outpatient rehab program. If your addiction is severe, entering a rehab center on an inpatient basis might be the most effective route to take. The best candidates for outpatient therapy are those who have a strong support network at home, consisting of friends and family.
Whether you choose an inpatient or outpatient program, you may opt to go through the process of withdrawal on a residential basis, where licensed medical personnel can help you get through the process with as little pain as possible.
Once you have decided on the type of program, you will need to figure out the best length of stay. Most researchers and physicians agree that one month is the shortest amount of time you should spend in rehab, as it may take the first few weeks before you are fairly recovered from the physical symptoms of Vicodin abuse. You may also choose 60- or 90-day programs.
You don’t have to make these decisions alone. Our counselors are standing by 24 hours a day, seven days per week to help guide you through this process. Contact them today at (800) 943-0566.
