Alcohol Detox and Rehab

Alcohol abuse touches the lives of practically every family out there. Untreated and unmanaged, it can cause major life challenges for everyone affected. For the alcoholic, withdrawal can cause seizures, delusions, delirium and even be fatal.

Malibu Horizon ensures the alcohol detox is performed effectively and comfortably. Although it may not be easy for all patients, we know the best methods for complete recovery and ensure that all of those we treat are comfortable in our facility.

The moment an alcohol drinker stops drinking, the “withdrawing” from alcohol begins. The human body often has a negative reaction to this. Although it may seem impossible for some cases, getting through the detoxification process is possible. Addressing the physical, emotional and psychological effects and preventing the others is what detox is all about.

Detoxification of alcohol is the first step of our alcohol treatment program. Providing stability and perspective, our patients are then ready to actively participate in Malibu Horizon’s additional programs for total recovery.

Prescription Medication Detox and Rehab

Opiates - Detox and Rehab

list of opiates

Opiates are prescribed by a doctor to relieve physical pain. Proven effective where other pain relievers fall short, they have helped millions of people deal with some of the toughest diseases. However, they can have negative side effects as well. Opiates are a specific classification of prescription medication that people can become highly dependent upon.

When someone stops taking any opiate, withdrawal begins. The detox process from opiates should always be done under the care of a licensed medical professional familiar with the opiate detoxification process. Opiate detoxification can last 7 to 14 days.

Here at Malibu Horizon, any opiate withdrawal effects are safely and properly managed using a drug called Suboxone.

Benzodiazepine Detox

list of benzodiazepines

Benzodiazepines are a separate classification of prescription medication. They are primarily prescribed for anti-anxiety or insomnia. Ativan and Xanax are two of the more common drugs in this classification. 
Stopping Benzodiazepine without the proper medical supervision is dangerous. In fact, it can cause severe w/d symptoms including death, Seizures and delirium. The moment someone stops taking a Benzodiazepine, withdrawal will begin.

Ambien, Soma Detox and Rehab

Used by millions for insomnia, Ambien is a sedative, also called a hypnotic. It affects chemicals in your brain that may become unbalanced and cause sleep problems. This medication causes you to relax and fall asleep. Soma is used as a muscle relaxant. Unfortunately, they are both frequently abused. Although they belong to separate class of drugs the withdrawal symptoms are very similar to alcohol and benzodiazepines.
Unfortunately, Soma is frequently abused. And although they belong to another classification of drugs, their withdrawal symptoms are very similar to Benzodiazepines.

Heroin Detox and Rehab

Heroin is the most commonly abused opiate in the world. At any given time, there are 500,000 users in the U.S. alone. Illegal and highly addictive, this semi-synthetic drug can devastate lives. The good news is that addiction can be treated effectively.

Although Opiate withdrawal is usually not fatal, it is very uncomfortable. We ensure that detox goes smoothly by using Suboxone.

Cocaine - Methamphetamine Detox and Rehab


Cocaine and Methamphetamine are psychoactive stimulant drugs that increase alertness and energy. Abused in high doses, it can induce euphoria and enhance self-esteem. Its side effects, including nervousness, anxiety, paranoia and heart issues, are well known.

During intoxication, these drugs can be life threatening. While withdrawing from the drug, it is usually not life threatening, but toxic effects can still occur, including heart attack and stroke. These effects through withdrawal need to be managed. At Malibu Horizons, our process for cocaine and methamphetamine detox is symptomatic and highly effective.
