Addiction is overwhelming and destructive - an experience that takes unwanted precedence in our lives. If you or a loved one are suffering from cocaine addiction, Vita Recovery is committed to helping you break the cycle and transition to long-term recovery.
Cocaine is a powerful stimulant that induces a short-lived "high", meaning frequent use is needed to maintain its euphoric effects. Repeat use over a short period risks the development of chemical tolerance, contributes to cravings, and paves the way for addiction.
Our substance use clinic in Miami offers you a luxury location and innovative treatment program where you can learn how to function without stimulants, helping you address the root of your addiction and prevent the risk of future relapse.
Despite being illegal, cocaine is readily accessible and is commonly used in the party scene. It can be difficult to identify whether someone has a cocaine addiction, as signs and symptoms will differ from person to person. However, there are some key signs to keep watch for, including:
Acting with increased urgency, impulsivity, energy
Engaging in dangerous or risky behaviors due to cocaine use
Continuing to abuse cocaine despite negative consequences to one’s life
Social isolation - withdrawing from loved ones
Losing interest in one's loved hobbies or activities
Spending time attempting to acquire, use and recover from cocaine use
Financial difficulties due to cocaine
While the signs vary, the most common identifier is the inability to stop using cocaine despite the obvious harm it is causing. Another indicator is, if you attempt to stop using cocaine, you experience withdrawal symptoms and strong cravings– a key indicator of an addiction. If you are worried about your or a loved one’s cocaine use, then contact us today at (786) 559-0623 to discuss how we can help you live a happy and healthy sober lifestyle.
While many believe they have their drug abuse under wraps, cocaine is eminently harmful to one’s mind, health, and well-being and can cause serious implications that develop later in life.
Cocaine has a fast release, causing you to feel energized, talkative, and overconfident in a short period of time. However, the drug can also cause unpleasant short-term effects, such as loss of interest in sleeping or eating, anxiety, and unstable behavior. Other short-term effects include:
Irritability/anger
Sensitivity to sound, touch, or sight
Mood swings
Headaches
Bloody nose
Muscle spasms
Irrational behavior
Dilated pupils
Difficulty breathing
Prolonged cocaine use can result in permanent changes to the functioning and structure of the brain, and the overstimulation of dopamine can make it difficult for you to experience pleasure in day-to-day things. Additionally, continuing to abuse cocaine is likely to result in cocaine dependence. Other long-term effects include:
Disorientation
Severe headaches
Increased blood pressure
Damage to lungs, liver, and kidneys
Brain bleeds
Loss of smell
Seizures
Infertility
At Vita Recovery, substance abuse treatment is unique to the individual's emotional, psychological, and medical needs. However, you can expect the most comprehensive and compassionate treatment possible, no matter what stage of your recovery journey you are at. Undergoing cocaine treatment will help you address all aspects of your addiction, from root causes to triggers. We utilize a variety of methods and modalities, including solution-oriented therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, 12-step principles, and more, to ensure successful patient outcomes.
Making the decision to enter cocaine addiction treatment is the first step on your recovery journey. Following acknowledgment and admittance, you will enter a medically supervised detox, allowing the body to rid itself of any remaining cocaine and any additional substances. Once the physical dependence and withdrawal symptoms have been addressed, you can more easily transition to the next stages of the recovery process.
Often, addictions are a plaster covering a gaping wound. By addressing all parts of your physical and mental health, we help heal your entire being. At Vita Recovery, for your customized treatment program, clinicians will work with you to identify causes, coping methods, and any mental health disorders that may be apparent. We provide our patients with successful strategies based on empirically derived science so you can navigate life’s stressors effectively and safely.
At Vita Recovery we offer two levels of care overseen by a diverse team of experienced experts including licensed therapists, board-certified psychiatrist, and more. Our Partial Hospitalization Program is best suited to those transitioning from inpatient treatment whereas our Intensive Outpatient treatment allows for you to live a more independent life while benefiting from structured days.
Ideally, treatment should achieve two things: combat dependency and create a more positive lifestyle, free of drugs. With such a focus on abstaining, it is easy to lose sight of the additional benefits of cocaine addiction treatment. Overcoming a substance use disorder is most difficult when you are alone and at Vita Recovery, we believe everyone is deserving of support and guidance. Other benefits of Vita Recovery treatment include:
Addressing the reasons behind drug abuse to decrease the chances of relapse
Gaining the skills to create meaningful relationships
Establishing plans for a life free of drugs
Constant support and guidance – from start to finish
Diagnosis and support for co-occurring mental health conditions
Without treatment, you may be unable to move past contributing factors, and the underlying aspects of your addiction may never be fully addressed. Treatment at Vita Recovery provides you with the tools to maintain a successful long-term recovery.
The length of cocaine rehab can vary and is adjusted to accommodate treatment and care at a level that is necessary for you. Our Partial Hospitalization Program is typically 30 days consisting of highly structured days. Our Intensive Outpatient Program can last between 4-6 weeks, depending on individual needs.
Inpatient programs are often recommended for pregnant women to ensure medically supervised guidance, monitoring, and support are provided. If you or someone you know is seeking treatment when pregnant, call us to discuss options further.
At Vita Recovery, we aim to make addiction recovery treatments available to as many people as possible. We work with many major health insurance providers. Although all insurance policies are different, most private insurances provide coverage for a set period.
Vita Recovery works with most private insurances and accepts self paying clients. Don’t hesitate to contact our team today to discuss treatment, out of network coverage, and potential payment plans.

The initial detoxification period can prove difficult as you may experience adverse physical and psychological withdrawal symptoms. However, a medical detox allows you a safe and comfortable space overlooked by medical professionals to meet your every need.
Cocaine is a stimulant derived from the leaves of the coca plant, native to South America. The drug works by acting on the central nervous system to create an intense but short-lived ‘high’ characterized by euphoria, increased energy, and confidence.
