Sleeping pill dependence often develops slowly: a nightly pill becomes two, or sleep feels impossible without it. Mixing sleeping pills with alcohol or opioids is especially dangerous because together they can slow breathing.
Treatment usually pairs a gradual taper with cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia, which helps restore natural sleep. See our sleeping pill withdrawal guide.
What medically managed detox involves
Sedative withdrawal can range from a few bad nights to dangerous symptoms after heavy use. Medically managed detox keeps doctors and nurses on hand, uses a gradual taper, and treats anxiety and sleeplessness along the way.

Using your insurance
Before you call a program, have your insurance card ready and ask three things: is the program in network, does the level of care need prior authorization, and what will you owe after the deductible. Plans regulated by federal parity law cannot set stricter limits on addiction care than on comparable medical care. Our insurance guides walk through major carriers.
