Stimulant Use Disorder Treatment

Stimulant Use Disorder Treatment

Evaluation and care planning for methamphetamine and other stimulant-use concerns.

Concerns addressed

  • Type of stimulant and route of use.
  • Frequency and amount used.
  • Sleep deprivation and nutrition concerns.
  • Anxiety, depression, paranoia, or other psychiatric symptoms.
  • Chest pain, palpitations, blood-pressure concerns, or other medical symptoms.
  • Use of opioids, alcohol, benzodiazepines, or other substances.
  • Overdose risk and possible exposure to fentanyl or other unexpected substances.
  • Prior treatment and current goals.

Concerns may include repeated use, cravings, sleep disruption, mood or behavioral changes, difficulty cutting down, or effects on health and daily life.

What to expect

An evaluation reviews the pattern of stimulant use, physical and mental-health concerns, other substance use, prior treatment, goals, and whether specialty or higher-level care is needed.

Safety notice

Chest pain, trouble breathing, seizure, severe agitation, hallucinations, loss of consciousness, or other acute symptoms require emergency evaluation.
