Pharmacotherapy
Several types of drugs are used to assist
alcoholics and addicts in pursuit of recovery

Disulfiram: (Antabuse)
Used as an adjunct deterrent to impulsive drinking
Interferes with normal metabolism of alcohol,
resulting in a serious physical reaction when alcohol
is ingested
Contraindicated for those with serious mental
illness, heart disease, diabetes, epilepsy, pregnancy

Methadone: (Synthetic Narcotic)
In addition to its use for detoxification, methadone is
used in long term dependency treatment as a
27
substitute for narcotic analgesic drugs
Pharmacotherapy (Cont.)
Methadone: (Continued)


Although its use is controversial, and critics
argue we are simply replacing one drug with
another, it has been instrumental in reducing
addicts illegal activities
Advantages of methadone over other forms of
maintenance therapy are:
It can be administered orally
It acts on the body for 24 to 36 hours
It causes no serious side effects
At proper dose levels, it blocks the effects of heroin
When taken orally - No substantial euphoric effects

Disadvantage is that Dependency develops28
Pharmacotherapy (Cont.)
LAAM:


Methadone analog with longer lasting effects
Advantages:
Taken three times a week
Equally as effective as methadone at:





Reducing heroin use
Decreasing arrests
Reducing treatment dropout
Helping to maintain employment
Disadvantages:
Appears to be more addictive than methadone
with more severe withdrawal symptoms
Not approved for pregnant or nursing women 29
Pharmacotherapy (Cont.)
Buprenorphine:


An analgesic and opioid antagonist that seems
to block the effects of opiates
Appears to only create low physical
dependence and mild withdrawal symptoms
Clonidine:


An anti-hypertensive drug described as the first
non-addictive, non-euphoriagenic prescription
medication with demonstrated efficacy in
relieving the effects of opiate withdrawal
Not for everyone - It lowers blood pressure
30
Pharmacotherapy (Cont.)
Naltrexone:

A synthetic narcotic antagonist that is used
primarily for:
Treatment of narcotic overdose because it can
reverse respiratory depression caused by narcotic
drugs
Longer term treatment to block the euphoric effects
of narcotics

It is reportedly not addictive and its effects last
for a few days. It is best suited for:
Adolescent users with short term heroin use
Recently paroled prisoners
Helping people off of methadone maintenance

34
Aftercare
An extension of intensive treatment,
residential and outpatient services along
the continuum of care
Helps prevent relapse by:


Providing ongoing support
Assisting clients in monitoring their progress
and addressing the problems or obstacles
they encounter in trying to maintain recovery
35
Maintenance
Recovery is a lifelong process usually
assisted through participation in 12 Step
and other self-help groups
May require periodic return to short term
aftercare or brief treatment when a crises
occurs
TIME FOR A BREAK
36
Education &
Psychoeducation
A crucial element of all substance abuse
treatment programs is didactic education
Psychoeducational groups combine
presentations of didactic information with
other techniques like:
Role plays
Structured exercises
Reading and Homework assignments
Keeping journals
Group discussions
37
Recovery Support Services
A multi-dimensional approach requires
assisting clients with resolving major
problems that impact their lives like:
Employment
Legal issues
Family issues
Health
Spiritual
Other significant problems


A referral may be sufficient for some, but most
will need some type of additional assistance
These services are usually coordinated
through case management
