What Is Cocaine?
Cocaine is a powerful stimulant drug that is derived from the coca plant, which is native to South America. It typically comes in the form of a white powder, and it can be used by snorting, injecting, or smoking. It is a highly addictive substance and is classified as a Schedule II drug by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).
How Cocaine Affects the Brain and Body
Cocaine stimulates the central nervous system, increasing energy, alertness, and feelings of euphoria. These effects are short-lived, contributing to repeated use and a higher risk of addiction. When someone uses cocaine, it triggers a rapid release of dopamine, a neurotransmitter linked to pleasure and reward, creating intense feelings of well-being. Over time, frequent and prolonged cocaine use can disrupt normal brain functioning, leading to addiction and various adverse effects.
Short-term effects of cocaine use include:
These effects are often followed by a crash, characterized by fatigue, depression, and intense cravings for more cocaine.
Long-term effects of cocaine use can include:
What Happens in Cocaine Addiction Treatment?
Residential/inpatient treatment
Is appropriate in most cases, cocaine is very addictive and to ensure longer term sobriety individuals struggling with cocaine dependency require a structured and intensive approach, our residential or inpatient detox treatment programs provide a supportive environment away from triggers and temptations. Our programs offer 24-hour medical care, counseling, group therapy, and other support services.
Clinical Interventions
Full medical and clinical assessments to gather patients full psychiatric and psychosocial history, this is done to formulate a patient centered treatment plan so our staff here at Live Oak Detox can provide the best services available.
Currently, there are no FDA-approved medications specifically for the treatment of cocaine addiction. However, medications may be prescribed to manage withdrawal symptoms, address co-occurring mental health conditions, or support overall recovery. For instance, antidepressants or anti-anxiety medications may be used to help with mood-related issues.
Support groups and Group Therapy
Participation in support groups like Cocaine Anonymous or Narcotics Anonymous can provide peer support and a sense of community during the recovery journey. These groups follow a 12-step model and provide a platform for sharing experiences, receiving guidance, and accessing ongoing support.
Integrated treatment
For individuals with co-occurring substance use and mental health disorders, integrated treatment that addresses both conditions simultaneously may be necessary. This approach involves collaboration between addiction treatment professionals and mental health providers.
