You don’t have to fight addiction alone. Topsail Recovery in Andover, MA has a team of addiction professionals to provide you with fast access to the right treatment.

  • Alcohol
  • Heroin
  • Benzodiazepines – Benzos
  • Prescription Pills
  • Opioids – Oxycodone and Codeine
  • Cocaine
  • Synthetic Drugs

What is the Detox Process?

Detox is very often the first step in the recovery process. An initial Clinical Assessment is conducted by our medical staff to determine the best approach for your addiction recovery.
 
During this assessment the staff screens for the following:
  • Medical conditions
  • Drug and alcohol use disorders
  • Co-occurring disorders
  • Contributing psychological factors
  • Risk for withdrawal
 
After an evaluation, medical detox can begin. During this time, the clinical staff customizes the care to your unique needs. 

How Long Does the Detox Process Take?

There is no standard or specific amount of time. Each person and their recovery process is different, however, you’re generally considered done with detox when you’re no longer drinking or taking any drugs and feel ready to move onto the next step. For many this process takes somewhere between five and ten days.
 
After the detox process is complete, most people start a recovery program, typically lasting up to 30 days. This will include one or more of the following recovery programs:

What exactly is a Detox Program?

Detox typically utilizes a combination of medical supervision, emotional support, and group therapy
Medically monitored drug and alcohol detox provides safety, support, and medication as you break the grip of drugs and alcohol. Not every treatment works for everyone. At Topsail we have a top team of therapists and offer a several different drug & alcohol addiction treatment services. We can help you determine if detox is right for you or a loved one.
 

Is a Medical Detox Safe?

 
Medical detox is often the first step in recovery from a drug or alcohol addiction. Since drug or alcohol withdrawal can be dangerous to your health, medical alcohol detox is often your safest route. For those addicted to drugs, medical detox is recommended for anyone who has shown signs of physical or psychological dependence on a substance. If you believe that you have a problem with drug or alcohol use, a medical detox program can help you on your path to recovery.
 
 

Medications Commonly Used in Detox

 
Naltrexone: Used for both the treatment of opioid and alcohol use disorders, naltrexone is an opioid blocking agent. It reduces your motivation to use drugs by blocking the “reward” reaction.
 
Suboxone: Treats withdrawal symptoms. Its two ingredients are buprenorphine and naloxone. It carries less addiction and overdose risk than methadone (though the risk is not zero).
 
Vivitrol: An injectable form of naltrexone, Vivitrol is often used during treatment for opioid and alcohol use disorders. The effects of a single injection of Vivitrol can last for one month
 
Sublocade:  A long-acting injectable form of buprenorphine. While oral forms of buprenorphine (Suboxone) can be effective in addressing withdrawal symptoms, they also carry the potential for abuse. Sublocade’s method helps prevent abuse.
 
Librium: A benzodiazepine that helps to control the anxiety symptoms of alcohol detoxification.
 
Phenobarbital: A drug used to prevent the symptoms of withdrawal for alcohol and barbiturates.

This place saves lives if you allow the process. The staff is amazing and truly want you to succeed. They give you all the tools you need to help you overcome your addiction. The therapists are easy to talk to and the groups become a family that depend on each other. Graduating this program was bitter sweet. Can’t wait to come back and do a commitment.

I can't say enough about the great team at Topsail. As a proud "graduate" of the evening IOP earlier this year, I left equipped with a completely changed perspective and tools that have enabled me to thrive in recovery. The balanced treatment approach at Topsail was what I found most beneficial. The diversity among the staff provides a comprehensive experience educating on neuroscience, mindfulness, behavioral therapy, and 12 step work in a group setting with individual support & therapy. I will always feel connected to the cohort of individuals that I spent my time at Topsail with, and I feel a debt of gratitude to the staff who helped enable my recovery. I'm proud to be sober, and the treatment I received at Topsail completely changed my life.

I will highly recommend this dual treatment facility to anyone with the will and open mind to get sober. I arrived at Topsail after 28 days in residential. I was paired with a therapist immediately and began the program the next day. 196 days later I graduated with the tools and knowledge needed to maintain my sobriety. I got my life back and I'm so grateful 🙏

Topsail is an amazing place. Everything about it from the environment to the staff is top notch. I’ve never encountered a more knowledgeable, dedicated and compassionate staff than I have here. From my first day to my last everyone made me feel at home. I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone considering a PHP or IOP aftercare plan. There is no question that I wouldn’t be here today without it. It saved my life.

Superb Treatment Center! They are knowledgeable, empathetic and caring. The clinicians at Topsail help each individual differently. The IOP program has so much to offer if you have a desire for sobriety. In comparison to other IOP programs I've done, this surpasses them by far. Thank you Topsail & GB for helping me have a better life for myself and anyone that is part of it. Forever Grateful.
