Who oversees treatment
The Behavioral Health Division of the North Dakota Department of Health and Human Services licenses all substance abuse treatment programs in the state under Century Code chapter 50-31.
Prescription monitoring
The North Dakota Prescription Drug Monitoring Program is run by the North Dakota Board of Pharmacy. It is a secure online database of Schedule II-V controlled substances and drugs of concern that authorized prescribers and pharmacists use.
Overdose Good Samaritan law
North Dakota Century Code section 19-03.1-23.4, titled Overdose prevention and immunity, provides immunity tied to calling for help in an overdose, and state policy review describes it as covering people who call 911 for themselves or another person.
Court-ordered treatment
North Dakota's commitment chapter, Century Code 25-03.1, covers an individual with a substance use disorder who, without treatment, poses a serious risk of harm. A petition goes through the state's attorney and a court hearing, and non-hospital treatment orders can run up to 90 days.
How the state treats gabapentin
North Dakota's prescription drug monitoring program law (N.D.C.C. 19-03.5-01) counts nonscheduled products containing gabapentin as controlled substances for PDMP purposes, so gabapentin dispensing must be reported to the state PDMP even though it is not placed on a drug schedule.

Stimulant detoxDual diagnosisStimulant programWhat to know about prescription stimulants
Vyvanse, Ritalin and Concerta are sometimes seen as safer than Adderall, but all prescription stimulants carry a risk of misuse and addiction. Snorting or injecting pills, or taking far more than prescribed, raises the danger.
Stopping after heavy use brings a withdrawal period of fatigue, increased sleep, appetite changes and low mood. Our stimulant withdrawal guide explains what to expect.
What stimulant detox involves
The first week off stimulants is usually the hardest, with fatigue, hunger, poor concentration and low mood, followed by weeks of cravings that come and go. Detox programs keep you safe and comfortable and plan what comes next.

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.
