Treatment for Painkiller Addiction
You don't have to live for another day with an addiction to painkillers. Help is available; all you need to do to get it is pick up the phone and call one of the rehab clinics listed in our directory. The staff there understand how to deal with the side effects of these drugs, which include dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, and constipation.
What are Painkillers?
Painkillers are drugs used to alleviate discomfort. Not all painkillers are addictive, though. A doctor may recommend that his or her patient start by taking non-steroid anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs), which are not addictive. Advil, Motrin, and Aleve are all examples of NSAIDs.
Causes of Painkiller Addiction
The types of painkillers that are addictive are the opioids. These include medications such as codeine, Vicodin, percocet, and oxycontin. When used as prescribed, these drugs are all effective painkillers. The problem with them comes into play when people take larger doses or use it more often than directed by their doctor. Recreational users of opioids are definitely at risk for becoming addicted, and it can happen quickly.

Painkiller Rehabs for Addiction Recovery
When you contact one of the painkiller rehab centers listed in our directory, the first part of dealing with the addiction is for you to go through detox. Opioid painkillers are physically addictive and you won't be able to start working toward your recovery goals until your body is free of the effects of the drug. After detox is complete, your treatment will involve learning how to live without using painkillers to get high.A 12-step substance abuse recovery program such as Narcotics Anonymous could also be of help.
Why Stop Abusing Painkillers? A Few Reasons:
- Opioid painkillers work on the respiratory system and can slow down breathing. In large doses, respiratory depression can reduce the amount of oxygen reaching the brain.
- These medications produce a sense of euphoria in the user, followed by drowsiness. It's important to exercise caution when driving or operating equipment after taking the medication.
- Combining opioid painkillers with alcohol is not a good idea, since the combination can slow down the rate of respiration. Antihistamines, barbiturates, and benzodiazepines should also be avoided while taking this class of drug.
