Multiple Substance Addiction Treatment in Lucknow
Many people use more than one substance, such as alcohol with sleeping pills, cannabis with opioids, or stimulants with alcohol. This is called polysubstance use. Mixing substances raises the risk of overdose and makes withdrawal harder to predict, and withdrawal from alcohol or sedatives can itself be dangerous.
Many people with multiple substance use also live with depression, anxiety, trauma or another mental health condition. Treating only one substance, or only one problem, usually leads to relapse.
We create a single coordinated plan after a full assessment of every substance and every health concern, usually beginning with inpatient detox, and continuing with dual diagnosis care, therapy and aftercare.
