Whether a person has recently developed an addiction or has had a long-standing issue, benzodiazepine addiction recovery is possible. Our addiction recovery program starts with home benzodiazepine detox. The detox process removes all benzodiazepines from the body to wean the patient’s body from its dependency on this drug. Detox helps the body begin the healing process and helps prepare the patient for therapy or counseling that is part of their complete addiction recovery plan.
Home benzodiazepine detox with Concierge MD LA is customized to every patient’s unique needs.
Here’s what patients can expect during in-home benzodiazepine detox with Concierge MD LA:
Traditional addiction rehab services generally take place at an inpatient or outpatient clinic.
While some people may benefit from group counseling and therapy, others may prefer a private and discreet environment. On top of that, traditional options can take a person’s valuable time and disrupt their schedule.
Concierge MD LA brings outstanding addiction medicine to our patients’ homes, with these benefits:
Our medical director consults with every patient in order to tailor an addiction recovery plan tailored to the patient’s unique lifestyle and health needs. This plan is adaptive and changes throughout the program so that patients receive care optimized to their needs. A patient’s rehabilitation plan will always reflect towards their progress towards a full recovery.
We come directly to the patient’s home in the greater Los Angeles area. During the entire home benzodiazepine detox process, a nurse stays onsite 24/7. The nurse will monitor the patient’s progress through detox, adjust any medications that have been prescribed as part of treatment, and make changes to the detox plan as needed.
Addiction rehabilitation is hard, so we make recovery as comfortable and convenient as possible. We eliminate the need for patients to go out of town to an inpatient rehabilitation center or make regular trips across town to an outpatient clinic.
We offer the same quality of service as a traditional inpatient rehab clinic. Our nurses are trained and experienced with coaching patients through the difficulties of detox.
Following our in-home addiction recovery services, Concierge MD LA provides a comprehensive suite of therapy, counseling, and addiction rehabilitation therapies. These therapies enable patients to develop positive habits and coping techniques to help a patient stay addiction-free.

Benzodiazepines are prescription sedatives that doctors may prescribe to treat or manage a variety of health conditions, including anxiety, insomnia, seizures, and muscle spasms. Benzodiazepines are safe to use when a doctor prescribes this medication in therapeutic doses for short amounts of time and the patient uses them as prescribed.
However, benzodiazepines are highly addictive. Benzodiazepine addiction happens when a person becomes physically and psychologically dependent on this drug.
Addiction can be dangerous because, over time, a person can build up a tolerance to the effects of benzodiazepines. As a result, a person needs higher and higher doses to achieve the desired effect. At high enough doses, benzodiazepines can cause overdose which may lead to coma or death. Addiction is all the more dangerous when benzodiazepines are prescribed alongside opioids, with 30% of opioid deaths involving benzodiazepines.
The cravings and withdrawal symptoms that come with benzodiazepine detox can make quitting difficult. Because the body has become dependent on the effects of this drug, cutting back the dose or stopping the use of benzodiazepines can cause withdrawals, which generally begin 24 hours after the final dose of the drug. The symptoms of withdrawal are one of the biggest factors in causing a patient to relapse (resume using drugs).
Benzodiazepine withdrawal symptoms include:
Withdrawals from benzodiazepines can range from uncomfortable to life-threatening, which is why medical management is important for a safe and successful detox and recovery.
Whether a person has recently developed a benzodiazepine addiction or has had a longstanding addiction, recovery is possible. Medically managed at-home benzodiazepine detox with Concierge MD LA ensures that this process is both safe and comfortable for the patient and their family.
It is not always easy to identify if a person has an addiction to benzodiazepine since doctors prescribe this class of drug to help patients manage certain health conditions. A change in a person’s normal habits is one of the first indications that they may have developed an addiction to a drug.
Signs a person may have benzodiazepine addiction include:
While benzodiazepines can be beneficial in treating certain conditions, there are many potential short-term and long-term side effects of taking this drug.
Short-term side effects can include:
Long-term side effects can include:
