Prescription drug addiction can be insidiously harmful to one’s physical and mental health. Finding relief from the desire to take more and more medication in an effort to drown out life’s anxieties and pressures can be very difficult.
Fortunately, at Les Mariannes Wellness Sanctuary we offer a complete prescription drug rehab program tailored to your particular addiction condition. Our counselors have worked with hundreds of prescription drug cases and have a successful track record in rehabilitation.
The Most Common Addictive Prescription Drugs
Prescription drug addiction and addiction to over-the-counter medicines are increasing exponentially in most countries. This is partly because Individuals wrongly believe that just because a drug is prescribed by a doctor or purchased legally , it is unlikely to develop into an addiction . The truth is that prescription drugs can be as addictive as some street drugs ! That’s why we are seeing more and more clients who can no longer stop prescribed cough medicines, pain killers ,sleeping tablets because their brain has already kicked into the addiction mode !
Common examples of highly addictive prescription drugs are:
- Morphine
- Methadone
- Codeine
- Ketamine
- Tramadol
- Xanax, Ativan, Lexotanil, Valium,Stilnox

Addressing and Eradicating Prescription Drug Addiction
First of all we must wean you off your addicted drug by a slow detox process or sometimes like for opiods, you will require an intensive medical detox that will last at least 7 days. This is done to rebalance your brain chemistry and overcome the withdrawal symptoms that can be unpleasant if not controlled medically.
In our comfortable setting, tranquil atmosphere and caring staff you will benefit from the most effective, proven techniques from Western practices such as 12 Steps and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) while also addressing the physical aspects of withdrawal and healing through regular physical fitness routines, yoga, reiki, acupuncture , massage, hydrotherapy and more.
Through our evidence-based techniques and practices, you will see start feeling better in a few days and will inevitably feel the motivation to continue to full addiction recovery. Very often our clients have co occurring health issues that need to be taken care of- painful conditions, depressive illness, anxiety issues: this is where our experienced team of doctors and therapists will help you to feel better and able to cope without the medicines that you have been addicted to.
What Makes Les Mariannes Wellness Sanctuary Different?
We are a long-standing medical rehab center,with a clinic license certified by the Mauritian Department of Health
At Les Mariannes Wellness Sanctuary we take a unique approach to inpatient prescription drug treatment and rehabilitation. We understand that addiction is a highly personal issue – and that no two addicts are similar. Each client has a unique genetic package that has given him a distinct biochemistry, metabolism and psychology. His life experience, his pains and his fears are not identical to any other patient. For this reason, each drug addiction treatment plan must be highly customized before full recovery can occur.
Additionally, at Les Mariannes Wellness Sanctuary we have a strict policy of allowing a maximum of 20 patients at a time. Larger groups tend to break apart into smaller groups based on beliefs, race and personal biases and can lead to many unpleasant tensions or rivalry. By keeping the program small, we are able to offer extensive personal care and attention to you throughout your entire prescription drug rehabilitation program.

Preventing Relapse
One of the biggest concerns of any prescription drug rehab program is relapse.This is very common with addictions to medicines that you can get legally, just by going to a doctor to get a prescription can put you back into another addiction cycle. This is why we focus a lot on underlying issues , so that you become stronger as a person and unlikely to fall into the trap of relapsing.
For additional aftercare, we provide up to four complimentary Skype calls so you are continuing with a drug-free lifestyle. Not only will you leave Les Mariannes Wellness Sanctuary with a renewed outlook on life and your personal goals, but also you will have the tools and means necessary to ensure you do not relapse in the future. Our aftercare and follow-up are a critical part of our success rate.
Is Prescription Drug Treatment Covered by Insurance?
Our center is approved as a rehab facility and holds a clinic license with the Ministry of Health. Hence our treatments are recognized and refunded by most international Health insurance companies. If you are in doubt, do contact our administration office for further clarification.
