Drug Detox
One of the first things an addict should do when entering treatment is to abstain from using illicit drugs completely. Depending on the length of time that the person has been using, the addict may have to go through alcohol or drug withdrawal. Fortunately, detox doesn’t have to be done alone, and withdrawal symptoms can be managed medically in an inpatient or outpatient setting. While detox may be uncomfortable, it is not life-threatening. Detoxification allows the addict to rid the body of all traces of drugs or alcohol and gives the addict a clean slate for their recovery.
Inpatient Treatment Program
Inpatient treatment for alcoholism or drug addiction is an option that provides the addict with a supportive environment in which they can stop using. After detox, an inpatient treatment center provides a structured environment for the addict to recover from their addiction and begin taking steps toward a lifetime of sobriety.
This type of treatment is appropriate for addicts that are most in need of intensive care and supervision. This includes those who were unable to quit on their own, those who need more structure than they can get in outpatient treatment, and those whose addiction has led them into legal trouble or severe health problems.

Contingency management is a type of CM that uses rewards to increase desired behaviors, such as abstinence.

It is based on the principle that reinforcing desired behavior will increase the likelihood of that behavior occurring again in the future.
LPE has become an integral component of outpatient substance abuse treatment and relapse prevention for both adults and adolescents. It is similar to contingency management programs used in substance abuse treatment, and clinical studies have shown that it can effectively treat drug addiction, reduce the number of days using drugs, and prevent relapse.
