Morphine addiction can destroy lives, but the caring team at our Utah rehab center is here to help you recover.
Our comprehensive addiction treatment program provides personalized therapies, morphine detox, and ongoing support to help you break free from morphine addiction and start your road to recovery.
A morphine addiction is the compulsive use of and dependence on morphine despite negative consequences. While morphine is often prescribed for severe chronic pain, long-term use can lead to addiction due to its habit-forming nature. Morphine addiction involves both physical and psychological symptoms that may require professional treatment for recovery.
According to a recent study overview, “long-term morphine administration generates dysregulation at cellular and molecular levels in the brain, leading to addiction.” Addiction to morphine is characterized by a number of psychological and behavioral symptoms, including:
If you recognize several of these symptoms in yourself or a loved one, reach out to our drug rehab center. Our experienced addiction treatment professionals can help assess the severity of morphine addiction and create a personalized recovery plan.
Negative emotional signs of withdrawal develop after just one exposure to morphine, and are likely a recurrent aspect of intermittent drug use that may contribute to the earliest adaptations underlying the development of addiction. (Rothwell, et al.)
Morphine withdrawal refers to symptoms that can occur when someone who is physically dependent on morphine abruptly stops or reduces use after heavy prolonged use. Physical dependence involves the body adapting to the presence of the drug, which results in withdrawal symptoms when use decreases or stops.
Common morphine withdrawal symptoms may include:
The severity and duration of morphine withdrawal symptoms depends on factors like the level of physical dependence and how long the person used morphine. Seek medical help from a drug detox center, such as Ardu, during withdrawal to effectively manage these often challenging withdrawal symptoms and ensure a safe detox process.
Overdosing on morphine occurs when someone takes morphine in excessive amounts that can poison the body, especially the central nervous system. Because morphine is a powerful opioid, overdosing on morphine can lead to severe and potentially fatal effects.
Signs and symptoms of a morphine overdose can include:
A morphine overdose requires emergency medical care right away. It can quickly lead to respiratory depression, coma, and even death if left untreated. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, over 100,000 people per year die of overdose in the US.
If you suspect someone has overdosed on morphine, call 911 immediately. With rapid treatment, the life-threatening effects of a morphine overdose can often be reversed.
Prolonged morphine abuse and addiction can lead to many adverse effects on one’s physical and mental health, relationships, and quality of life. Someone who struggles with morphine abuse and addiction may experience:
The cumulative effects of prolonged, compulsive morphine abuse underscore the importance of seeking help. Our comprehensive addiction treatment programs can help you escape the downward spiral of morphine addiction before the consequences become more severe. Recovery is possible with proper treatment, support, and lifestyle changes.
There are many benefits to choosing specialized morphine addiction treatment programs. Morphine addiction treatment programs provide safe, effective care to help people overcome dependence and achieve lasting sobriety.
Key reasons to get professional treatment include:
With research-backed protocols tailored by addiction specialists, treatment programs offer the comprehensive care needed to escape morphine addiction. We empower you with the tools and support for a lifetime of sobriety.
Morphine detox is the process of safely eliminating morphine from the body while managing withdrawal symptoms. Many recommend completing medical detox at a drug and alcohol detox center to ensure proper care.
During detox, patients are monitored by medical professionals 24/7. Medication-assisted treatment may be used to alleviate cravings and other symptoms. Additional therapies like yoga may also help restore balance and well-being.
In addition to medical detox, we also offer holistic detox services. If you don’t want to replace one drug with another, holistic treatment such as yoga therapy, acupuncture, IV amino acid therapy, and nutritional therapy may be more your speed.
At our drug detox center, we create customized detox plans to provide the most effective care throughout the morphine detox process. Withdrawal symptoms can be very uncomfortable, so having access to medical and psychological support makes detox safer and more bearable.
Completing detox lays the foundation for ongoing rehab treatment and sustained recovery. We help ease your transition into the next phase of care. Drug detox is a crucial first step in overcoming morphine addiction for good.
Morphine addiction rehab involves a structured treatment program with medical care, counseling, and other services to help people overcome morphine addiction. Rehab provides the tools and support for maintaining long-term sobriety.
Inpatient rehab or residential treatment for morphine addiction involves living full-time at a drug rehab center during treatment. It provides 24/7 medical and psychological care in a controlled, drug-free environment.
Inpatient treatment removes people struggling with morphine addiction from triggers and disruptions while giving them the focused support needed for recovery. It tends to be recommended for those with severe addictions or co-occurring disorders.
Outpatient treatment allows people with morphine addiction to continue living at home or a sober living facility and attend treatment sessions at a rehab center during the day or evening. It provides flexibility to maintain work or family commitments while getting addiction treatment.
Options include:
Outpatient treatment works well for those with stable environments who are motivated to recover. Overall, outpatient rehab, and especially intensive outpatient rehab is less disruptive to your life but still provides structured treatment.
We provide a range of proven addiction therapies to help you overcome morphine addiction for good.
Individual therapy provides one-on-one counseling tailored to your unique needs and situation to process emotions, trauma, or other factors underlying your addiction. Group therapy can help you gain peer support and learn from others going through similar struggles in addiction group therapy.
Addiction therapies we offer include:
We develop integrated treatment plans that combine these therapies in the way best suited to your needs and recovery goals. Our experienced therapists provide professional guidance and support through your healing journey.
Many struggling with morphine addiction also have a co-occurring mental health disorder, known as a dual diagnosis. Common conditions include depression, anxiety, PTSD, and bipolar disorder. Our dual diagnosis treatment integrates substance abuse and mental health treatment.
Getting evaluated at our mental and behavioral health facilities is important, as undiagnosed or untreated mental illness can undermine recovery efforts. Dual diagnosis programs at our substance abuse treatment facility are designed to meet your specific mental health needs while you receive care for morphine addiction.
Benefits of our dual diagnosis programs include:
Dual diagnosis treatment takes a whole-person approach to care. Our goal is to equip each individual with the tools to achieve lasting wellbeing, free from morphine addiction and stabilized from mental health disorders.
Aftercare planning is a critical part of addiction recovery and relapse prevention. It involves developing a comprehensive plan to support you on your road to recovery after completing initial treatment.
Some components of quality aftercare planning include:
Our team will collaborate with you before treatment completion to create an individualized plan with the necessary resources and support systems tailored to your needs for maintaining recovery success in the long run.

There are several factors that can lead to addiction to morphine, including genetics, environmental influences, and previous substance use disorders, especially previous opiate abuse.
Prolonged use of morphine for chronic pain often leads to physical dependency, causing withdrawal and cravings that perpetuate morphine addiction even after the original pain subsides.
Psychological factors like trauma and mental illness may also increase susceptibility to addiction.
Polysubstance abuse refers to the concurrent abuse of multiple substances. It often involves drugs like sleeping pills, cocaine, or even alcohol. It is a dangerous form of substance abuse with effects that can be unpredictable due to drug interactions.
