Prescription Drug Rehab · Houston
Prescription drug use disorder rarely starts as misuse. It starts with a real prescription for a real problem — pain, sleep, anxiety, ADHD — that grew into dependence. Altura Recovery treats prescription drug use disorder without judgment, in coordination with your prescribing physicians.
Altura Recovery provides outpatient addiction treatment in Houston after detox when needed, or directly when medical detox is not required. Most clients begin with PHP or IOP, then step down as stability, cravings, and support improve.
Some prescription drug classes (benzodiazepines, opioids) require medical taper or detox before outpatient. Others (stimulants, sleep aids) usually do not. We assess on intake and coordinate medical care as needed.
From there, the typical path at Altura Recovery is Partial Hospitalization (PHP) for the first three to four weeks, then step-down to Intensive Outpatient (IOP) for two to three months. Clients who need housing structure live at one of our sober living partners throughout PHP and IOP.
Many clients started stimulants for ADHD and ended up using outside prescribed doses. We coordinate with prescribers, address underlying ADHD, and treat the dependence.
Long-term Ambien use changes sleep, mood, and memory. Our team helps you rebuild sleep without dependence.
We coordinate with pain management, primary care, and MAT prescribers to address both pain and dependence.
See our dedicated benzo rehab page. Medical taper is required before outpatient — we coordinate.
For clients who need housing alongside clinical care, Altura Recovery coordinates with established sober living programs across the Houston metro. We don't operate housing ourselves — we maintain working relationships with separately operated houses so clients have a stable place to live while they attend PHP or IOP.
For families comparing gender-specific sober living options, we often point them to Aspire Recovery Homes' Houston resources for sober living for women in Houston and sober living for men in Houston, while also helping them evaluate other separately operated homes when those are a better fit.
Sober living programs are operated separately from Altura Recovery. Housing fees are billed independently and are not part of clinical billing.

Altura Recovery is an outpatient program and does not provide on-site medical detox. If detox is clinically needed first for prescription drug, we help coordinate it with a trusted partner and provide PHP, IOP, or Structured Outpatient care as the step-down afterward.
Outpatient care at our Bellaire clinic — Partial Hospitalization (PHP), Intensive Outpatient (IOP), and Structured Outpatient (SOP) — combining individual therapy, group work, and dual-diagnosis support for any co-occurring mental health condition.
