Prescription Drug Addiction
Prescription drug addiction, also known as prescription drug use disorder, occurs when individuals misuse legally prescribed medications or use them without a prescription. Unlike illicit drugs, prescription medications begin as legitimate medical treatments, making addiction particularly challenging to recognize and address.
Our prescription drug treatment center in North Carolina provides specialized care for addiction to the most frequently abused categories of prescription medications:
1. Prescription Opioids
The most common types of prescription drugs misused include pain relievers, with 5.3 million people having a substance use disorder involving pain relievers. These medications include:
1. Oxycodone (OxyContin, Percocet)
2. Hydrocodone (Vicodin, Norco)
3. Morphine
4. Fentanyl patches
5. Codeine
6. Tramadol
2. Benzodiazepines
2.3 million Americans had a substance use disorder involving tranquilizers or sedatives within the past 12 months. Common benzodiazepines include:
1. Alprazolam (Xanax)
2. Diazepam (Valium)
3. Clonazepam (Klonopin)
4. Lorazepam (Ativan)
5. Temazepam (Restoril)
3. Prescription Stimulants
1.7 million Americans suffered from a substance use disorder involving prescription stimulants like Adderall and Ritalin. These medications are commonly prescribed for ADHD and narcolepsy and include:
1. Amphetamine/dextroamphetamine (Adderall)
2. Methylphenidate (Ritalin, Concerta)
3. Dextroamphetamine (Dexedrine)
4. Central Nervous System Depressants
