Opiates Detox
Sunset Malibu Proven Opiates Detox Program Successfully Treats “Legal” and “Illegal” Addictions
Say the word “Opiates” and your mind probably pulls up a black-and-white, 1940s spy movie, with Humphrey Bogart trying to run down dope smugglers in the Kasbah.
But in real life, “opiates” can be any narcotic-based substance – from illegal recreational drugs like heroin to prescription opiates such as Vicodin and Oxycontin.
One thing the movies pretty much has down pat about addiction is this: the initial detox period when treating opiate addictions is the toughest part of kicking the habit.
When you’re facing opiate addiction head-on, you need to be able to concentrate on kicking the habit without the pressure of outside influences. That’s why the luxurious residence at Sunset Malibu is the choice many opiate addicts make when they are truly ready to kick their habit for good.

“I’m an alumnus of your opiates detox program. My problem was Percocet, which I was prescribed after tearing a ligament in my knee while playing touch football. It started innocently enough, but I started upping the dosage myself. I ended up hooked on the painkillers. I spent half my tuition money buying pills from dealers when my doctor refused to renew my prescription. When the tuition check bounced for the second term, my parents hauled me out of college and checked me into Sunset Malibu’s opiates detox program. The first week was pretty rotten – I haven’t felt so sick in my life – but your staff was so supportive and the residence was just so nice, that I was able to stick it out. Your program really gave me a second chance. I was able to get back into college and, although I had to repeat my first year, I’m going to graduate this spring. I think you all deserve some credit for that.” – Name Withheld
“If the people I spoke to on your toll-free help line are any indication of the caliber of staff at your center, Sunset Malibu must really be something special. I had concerns about my son-in-law and the way he seemed to be going through his painkiller prescriptions, so I called your help line. The counselor who took my call was polite and wonderfully supportive. He even put me through to a doctor in the program who treats painkiller addiction. She was extremely helpful and took the time to answer all of my questions. She left me with a handful of suggestions to deal with my situation. If it comes to seeking treatment, I’m going to firmly suggest that my daughter call you as well.” – Name Withheld
