Pharmaceuticals Addiction
Why the Sunset Malibu Pharmaceuticals Addiction Program Succeeds where Others Fail
Treating an addiction to pharmaceuticals requires a different approach than programs designed for typical recreational drugs. An entirely different range of drugs and circumstances could be involved. Each medicine has its own requirements for kicking it.
The staff at Sunset Malibu has a great deal of experience in treating a wide range of pharmaceutical addictions. Because every patient’s situation is unique, they assess each patient on a one-to-one basis to determine the specifics of their addiction. Then they design a treatment plan tailored to each patient’s unique situation.
Our doctors provide advanced medical care during the initial detox period, where residual drugs are flushed from the patient’s system. Therapists and counselors then work with the patient, employing proven group and individual therapy sessions. These sessions include intensive addiction counseling along with psychological analysis to address any underlying issues.

"I’m one of those people you’d never pick out of a line-up and say ‘she’s a drug addict.’ I’m a stay at home mom with two kids and our house is always spotless. After my youngest son was born, I was prescribed sleeping pills to deal with a bout of insomnia. I got hooked on the pills and started taking them in higher doses. Sometimes I’d end up staying awake all night and spend the next day buzzed. I had to call a cab to pick up the kids from daycare on more than one occasion. When I got caught by the pharmacy trying to fill a forged prescription, I knew I had to do something or risk losing my family. I called Sunset Malibu. They quickly got me past the embarrassment of admitting I was an addict. The doctors were wonderful during detox. Therapy was incredibly therapeutic. The gourmet meals and access to the spa was just so relaxing. I loved the ocean view from the dining room. The staff was very understanding. By the time I checked out, I was not only free of the sleeping pills, but feeling better about myself than I have in years" – Name Withheld
“A quick note of appreciation for providing your toll-free telephone counseling service for pharmaceutical addiction: Although I was in denial, my friends kept calling me a pill-popper and generally giving me a hard time about my little habit (as I referred to it). I wouldn’t have gone so far as booking an appointment with a doctor, but I decided to invest an hour talking to one of your therapists over the phone. That call is what gave me the motivation to tackle my addiction and beat it.” – Name Withheld
