About Icarus Alcohol and Drug Rehab New Mexico

Icarus Alcohol & Drug Rehab in Albuquerque, New Mexico, is a certified mental health and drug rehab organization. Support is available to adults 18 and older, including those with dual diagnosis or co-occurring mental health issues regardless of your background.

They accept most major insurance plans, including Western Sky insurance and other types of New Mexico Medicaid, Tricare, and VA Insurance.

Along with residential and outpatient program options, clients here can begin their recovery journey by getting clean here with medically supervised detox services. This takes place with the support of a 24-hour response team, who are on hand to ensure clients’ safety and well being as they ride the waves of withdrawal symptoms and cravings that make this phase of recovery so notoriously difficult. Dedicated nurses and psychologists are never far away, and are committed to keeping clients stable and comfortable as they sober up.

You might receive pharmaceutical support and the prescription of medications to help relieve some of the more uncomfortable side effects of withdrawal and detox. Some of these medications include clonidine, a medication that can support with lowering anxiety and support with hypertension; benzodiazepines like Ativan are also commonly used to reduce stress on the body and to encourage rest. Finally, antihistamines are also commonly used to reduce anxiety, headaches, nausea, and other common detox side effects.

Alongside medical support, therapeutic support is provided in the form of group therapy. This way, clients are encouraged to interact socially with other people going through the same thing as them. This way, they can benefit from peer education, and emotional support, while receiving accountability as part of a community. Treatment plans here also often recommend family involvement where appropriate. Nutritionally balanced and tasty meals are also provided to stimulate appetite and keep clients strong and well-fed.

The detox process typically lasts around 3-10 days, though this will naturally vary from person to person. After clients complete detox, they can expect to work closely with their treatment team to determine which treatment program is the best option for them moving forward.
