Adderall Detox in Colorado

Treatment rules and programs in Colorado

Who oversees treatment

The Behavioral Health Administration (BHA), part of the Colorado Department of Human Services, serves as the State Single Authority for substance abuse services and also oversees licensing and designation of behavioral health providers.

Prescription monitoring

The Colorado PDMP is run by the Division of Professions and Occupations within the Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA); it is the state's system for tracking controlled substance prescriptions.

Public coverage for treatment

Colorado's Medicaid program is Health First Colorado, which covers substance use treatment across levels of care, including outpatient care, withdrawal management, residential treatment and medication-assisted treatment.

Overdose Good Samaritan law

Colorado's 911 Good Samaritan statute gives immunity from arrest and prosecution for certain drug and alcohol possession offenses to a person who reports an overdose in good faith or helps the person in need, and to the person who overdosed, if they stay and cooperate with responders.

Court-ordered treatment

Colorado has a civil process under C.R.S. 27-81-111 and 27-81-112 with two stages: emergency commitment to a withdrawal management program, and court-ordered involuntary commitment to treatment as a last resort. The state page uses these formal terms rather than a common nickname.

What to know about Adderall

Adderall is a prescription stimulant that combines amphetamine salts. It is approved for ADHD and narcolepsy and is a Schedule II controlled substance because it can be misused and lead to dependence. Misuse includes taking higher doses than prescribed, taking someone else's pills, or crushing and snorting them.

There is no FDA-approved medication for stimulant use disorder, so treatment relies on behavioral therapies such as contingency management and cognitive behavioral therapy. Read our Adderall addiction guide for signs and treatment options.

What Adderall detox involves

Adderall withdrawal, often called the crash, usually brings exhaustion, long sleep, increased appetite, irritability and low mood. It is rarely physically dangerous, but the depression can be serious. Residential detox offers rest, nutrition, monitoring and support so the first days are safer and more manageable.

Detox is only the first step. Ask each program near Colorado how it plans ongoing treatment after you leave.

Cost and coverage

The cost of treatment depends mostly on the level of care, how long you stay and your insurance. Residential care costs the most; outpatient therapy the least. Many programs on SAMHSA's directory accept private insurance, and some offer sliding-scale fees. See our insurance guides for details by carrier.
