Drug addiction has taken a devastating toll on the families and communities of Kentucky. It is estimated that 1 in 14 Kentuckians currently suffers from some form of addiction. 1 Over the past decade, the number of drug-related overdose deaths in Kentucky has skyrocketed to more than 1,500 each year. 2 The Bluegrass State currently has the third highest rate of drug overdose fatalities in the nation. 3 On average, four Kentuckians will die from a drug overdose every day.
Kentucky has been disproportionately impacted by the national opioid crisis. Last year, nearly 1,000 Kentuckians died from a drug overdose involving opioids. 4 The vast majority of overdose deaths involve fentanyl, an extremely powerful synthetic opioid drugtypically used to treat advanced cancer pain.Tragically, a recently published study shows that the social isolation and economic distress associated with the COVID-19 pandemic has significantly heightened the risk of overdose among Kentuckians suffering with opioid addiction. 5
Alcohol is the most commonly abused substance in Kentucky. A fifth of all Kentuckians engaged in binge drinking in the past month and 1 in 21 have an alcohol use disorder (or alcoholism), including a staggering 1 in 12 young adults (aged 18-25 years). 1 Around 1 in 23 Kentucky residents misused prescription opioids in the past year, and 1 in 115 suffers from a prescription opioid addiction. 1 Marijuana is the most used illicit drug in Kentucky, as 1 in 12 Kentuckians currently use marijuana and 1 in 8 have used marijuana in the past year. 1 Other illicit drugs commonly used in Kentucky include cocaine (1 in 58), methamphetamines (1 in 100), and heroin (1 in 250). It is estimated that 1 in 33 Kentucky residents currently battles an addiction to some type of illicit drug.

Before starting any form of drug rehab treatment, you must undergo detox, to eliminate all traces of drugs from your body. We recommend that you do not try detoxing at home, by yourself. More often than notpeople who try going cold turkey will fall off the wagon, as the intense cravings and painful symptoms of withdrawal are too much to overcome alone.
Landmark Recovery offers medically supervised detox services to help you get you through withdrawal successfully. Clinical specialists at our Louisville drug rehab will provide supportive care with around-the-clock monitoring to keep you safe and comfortable throughout the entire detox process. We will also watch out for any signs of potential medical complications, including life-threatening seizures, uncontrolled vomiting and diarrhea, and elevations in blood pressure. While detoxing from some drugs, like opioids and alcohol, you may be prescribed certain medications to reduce cravings and negative withdrawal symptoms. 7
Following the completion of detox, you will enter the therapy stage of Louisville drug rehab. A variety of evidence-based treatments will be incorporated into your personalized treatment program, including behavioral therapy, medication-assisted treatment, individual and group counseling, family therapy, meditation and mindfulness therapies, and health and wellness education. Participation in therapy will help determine the underlying causes of your addiction and teach the skills and behaviors needed to control cravings and prevent relapse. 8
