What is a Narcotic?

Typically speaking, narcotics are a class of painkiller. They may be prescribed following surgery or to treat a painful medical condition. This medication doesn't solve the problem that is causing the pain, but blocks the body's pain receptacles so the patient feels better. The following drugs are all classified as being narcotics:

  • Codeine
  • Darvocet
  • LorTab
  • OxyCodone
  • OxyContin
  • Percocet
  • Vicodin

Street names for narcotics include "hillbilly heroin","oxycotton" for oxycontin and "perqs" for percocet.


Causes of Narcotic Addiction

A person may start taking "hillbilly heroin" prescribed by a doctor for pain management but find that the level of medication they are taking is not controlling their pain. Since these medications also produce a feeling of euphoria, they may start to enjoy that sensation and take more than the prescribed dose or use it more often than the doctor has recommended. A person with a history of substance abuse is more likely to become addicted to "perqs" or other drugs in this class, and your doctor should be told if you fall into this category.
