  1. Is It Possible to Treat Prescription Drug Addiction? More people are becoming dependent on prescription drugs in America than ever before. It is now a crisis that is the worst we have faced in American history.

  2. The Importance of Understanding Opiate Addiction The current issue facing our nation with opiates has shown very clearly that anyone can become addicted to this incredibly powerful drug.

  3. How Does Prescription Drug Dependence Develop? When someone takes any kind of medication for a sustained period of time, they invariably develop a tolerance to it. When the medication in question is an opiate-based painkiller, once a tolerance has developed it means the individual has to take higher doses to get the pain relief they need.

  4. Are There Treatment Options for Opiate Addiction? Holistic therapies offer gentler ways to recovery from opiate dependence and addiction and can also reduce the sometimes distressing physical symptoms of withdrawal for patients undergoing opiate detoxification.

  5. THANK YOU
