Dual Diagnosis Drug Treatment

Treatment for dual disorders can come in many styles, but the most effective dual disorder treatment probably takes place in a residential dual disorder program. Most people with dual disorders such as depression and drug addiction require 24 hour structure for drug addiction treatment and medication management in the early days.

Many psychiatrists try dual disorder treatment out of their offices with poor results due to addiction cravings and many patients reluctance to stay on medication. Another reason the treatment for dual disorders is better off in a residential dual disorder program is a patient’s need for medical detox services. Without medical detox services the patient is almost guaranteed to return to their old ways due to the pain. Whether you want to call it dual disorder treatment or dual diagnosis treatment, both disorders must be treated concurrently, with medical services available and psychiatric asssitance to produce the best results.
