Xanax detox also known as Alprazolam detox, is best if supervised by a medical team. If Xanax is used for a prolonged period of time, it can cause severe withdrawal symptoms. Our Xanax detox center specializes in providing detox programs for those addicted and/or dependent on Benzodiazepines.
What is Xanax?
Xanax is a drug that is used to treat those who are diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder. Just like many other prescription drugs, Xanax can become addictive when used improperly. Xanax causes a euphoric high giving individuals a feeling of relief and escape when this drug is abused. The way it works is by alternating the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) by interacting with chemicals and receptors in the brain.
Our Xanax Detox Protocol
In order to successfully help individuals be free of Xanax addiction and dependence, we utilize a variety of detox methods. We take into account that some individuals may have been prescribed this medication for psychological reasons and may have built up a tolerance for Xanax. Our addiction counselors have the ability to safely medicate those individuals for their psychiatric disorder while going through a safe detox using our Heather Ashton Protocol. This protocol is specific to those who have had long-term use of Benzodiazepines since this class of drugs can be difficult to discontinue.

Other Xanax Detox Programs to Consider
To speed up the healing process we offer options during Xanax detox including:
Integrative Detox Programs: With these programs we combine multiple detox programs by including our traditional Xanax detox with other Complementary Alternative Medicine (CAM) therapies. This helps accelerate and restore the neurotransmitters in the brain that may have been damaged from the addiction.
Restore Neurotransmitter Restoration Program: This program uses the combination of Amino Acid IV and Oral Supplements to replete the body’s nutrition. Also, helps reduce and even alleviate withdrawal symptoms.
Xanax Withdrawal Symptoms
During Xanax detoxification, a various amount of withdrawal symptoms may surface depending on the individual and their addiction. Physical and psychological Xanax withdrawal symptoms may include some of the following:
- Insomnia
- Anxiety
- Panic
- Tremors
- Convulsion
- Vomiting
- Nausea
- Disorientation
- Hallucinations
- Constipation
- Drowsiness
- Dry mouth
- Mood swings
- Depression
Dual Diagnosis Treatment Options
For those who struggle with a panic disorder and addiction, we offer dual diagnosis treatment options for these individuals. An initial evaluation will determine those psychological disorders and as well as addictive behaviors. From there, we develop a personalized treatment program based off the evaluation where continued evaluations will take place. Along with our Xanax detox program we offer on-going treatment options including:
- Intensive outpatient treatment
- Mental health services including therapy
- Individual counseling
- Aftercare program
After Xanax detoxification is complete, that doesn’t mean treatment isn’t necessary. Our dual diagnosis treatment options allow us to offer continuing education, psychiatric services, and coping mechanisms to continue living a life of sobriety. Feelings of hopelessness can overcome individuals at any given time when struggling with a mental health condition and cause relapse. On-going treatment will help alleviate those feelings altogether as well as provide techniques to learn how to cope with those feelings if they are to arise in the future.
