Opioid addiction is a common form of addiction, often caused by prescription drugs that are abused. Addiction is treated by detoxifying the body and following up with therapies to correct behavior and target the root of the problem.
Most opioid addiction begins with patients being prescribed painkillers after an injury or surgery. The body becomes used to the chemicals in these medications and soon no longer responds to their presence. As a result, addicts seek out stronger opiate-based medications like Oxycodone to compensate for the lack of effectiveness.
The most dangerous aspect is that these addictive behaviors often get carried over onto illicit drugs like heroin, which are increasingly potent and result in lower life expectancies.

Detox is the body’s process of removing toxins. In substance abuse, detox refers to the process of getting rid of drugs already present in the system once the patient stops further intake. Detox is the initial recovery step. Physiological drug dependence over time can lead to symptoms of withdrawal. Depending on the symptom severity, the detox process is managed either medically or clinically. While medically assisted detox relies on specific medicines, clinical or social detox relies on providing the patient with emotional and psychological support.
