An estimated 1.4 million people report having a cocaine use disorder in 2021. Cocaine abuse not only can put your life at risk, but it can be detrimental to virtually all other aspects of your life, from fracturing relationships with loved ones to declining work performance, not to mention a considerable number of health consequences.
Despite the dangers of cocaine abuse, many individuals in need of help never seek treatment, largely due to a fear of judgment. At SequoiaMD, we work to break down the stigma associated with substance abuse through comprehensive care and psychoeducation.
Our Sacramento cocaine drug rehab center provides direct primary care and addiction treatment so patients can receive the support they need to maintain long-term sobriety. Whether you are struggling with cocaine addiction or another substance use disorder, we provide a range of comprehensive outpatient addiction treatment options to best help each person on their road to long-term sobriety.

During the first appointment, you can expect that we will listen to your story and create a treatment plan with you that addresses your unique circumstances.
This includes understanding your recovery goals and developing a comprehensive plan to fit your situation. Everyone’s situation is unique, and opioid addiction treatment should not be one-size-fits-all.

Why SequoiaMD Is The Right Choice
SequoiaMD is a doctor-owned and operated treatment center, ensuring that every patient receives the most effective and comprehensive care possible. The involvement of medical professionals in addiction treatment can be crucial for several reasons:
At SequoiaMD, we have a deep understanding of the physical and psychological aspects of addiction. Their medical knowledge allows them to assess the individual’s health, provide necessary medical interventions, and address any co-occurring medical conditions effectively.
Our physician-led addiction treatment program can offer a more comprehensive approach to treatment. Medical professionals can assess and manage withdrawal symptoms, provide medication-assisted treatment when appropriate, and ensure that physical health issues are addressed alongside psychological and behavioral aspects of addiction.
At SequoiaMD, we can tailor addiction treatment plans to the unique needs of each patient. Our medical staff can evaluate the severity of addiction, co-occurring mental health disorders, and other factors to create a personalized treatment plan that maximizes the chances of successful recovery.
At SequoiaMD, our staff can closely monitor a patient’s progress throughout the treatment process and make adjustments as needed. This ongoing care can help prevent relapse and ensure that any emerging health issues are addressed promptly.
SequoiaMD’s professional medical staff can provide guidance on harm reduction strategies, monitor patients for complications, and intervene if emergencies arise. The safest course of action is to abstain from using cocaine, but if patients insist on using, we suggest certain tactics to lessen negative effects, including not combining cocaine with alcohol or other drugs, refraining from using drugs alone, and checking for the presence of fentanyl in cocaine using testing kits.
The fears that people living with SUD have about being treated poorly, facing rejection, and encountering judgment are significant barriers to their recovery. To help individuals with SUD on their path to recovery, we adopt non-judgmental, accepting, and supportive attitudes through the addiction treatment process. We create an environment where those struggling with substance abuse feel safe, understood, and empowered to seek the help they need. Our professional medical staff works to help reduce the stigma associated with substance use disorders and underscore that addiction is a disease that requires treatment rather than a weakness of willpower.
Our doctors can collaborate with other healthcare professionals, such as psychiatrists, psychologists, counselors, and social workers, to provide a holistic approach to addiction treatment. This interdisciplinary approach can address the various aspects of addiction effectively.
Stopping using feels great. However, moving away from drug use you have used every day for months or years is a big change.
How to Treat Cocaine Addiction Through Outpatient Treatment Services?
Individuals seeking treatment for cocaine addiction should undergo a comprehensive assessment by healthcare professionals who can determine the most appropriate treatment plan based on their unique needs and circumstances. Treatment plans should be tailored to address both the addiction itself and any co-occurring mental health issues or other substance use disorders.
While there are no FDA-approved medications for cocaine addiction, some medications that target mood and cravings may be used off-label in certain cases. For example, medications like, topiramate, or modafinil have been studied to reduce cravings and the rewarding effects of cocaine. These medications are used cautiously and on an individualized basis, and their effectiveness can vary.
Individuals with cocaine addiction often have co-occurring mental health disorders, such as depression or anxiety. Both in residential and outpatient settings, numerous behavioral therapies for cocaine addiction have shown to be successful. In fact, behavioral therapies are frequently the only effective and accessible solutions for a wide range of drug issues, including stimulant addiction.
As a patient moves into recovery away from an active opioid use disorder, we start working to build treatment services and plans that can fit your unique situation.
