The Many Faces Of Painkiller Addiction
Prescription painkillers come in many different forms, and each of them is equally addictive. Even the slightest misuse of any one of these medications can result in addiction, overdose, or death.
Some of the most effective pain drugs are also the most enslaving to those who end up using them.
- Codeine
- Darvocet/Darvon
- Demerol
- Dilaudid
- Fentanyl
- Hydrocodone
- Methadone
- Morphine
- Oxycodone
- Hydromorphone
- Meperidine
- Propoxyphene
The Opioid Epidemic
In the United States alone, around 1 in 10 people struggle with some level of substance use, including addiction to prescription drugs, most notably prescription painkillers. 25% of people who misused painkillers by the age of 13 find themselves battling painkiller addiction later in life.
Pain Medication Overdose
It should come as no surprise then that around 3.3 million Americans are currently known to be addicted to prescription pain medication. Misuse of these medications can, and often does, lead to overdoses.
If you start to notice these signs and symptoms of a pain medication overdose, seek medical attention immediately.
