– You are taking more of the medication dosage than what has been prescribed.

Why RX Addiction is On The Rise

Addiction to prescription medications is a serious problem across the United States. Some individuals are predisposed to have addictive tendencies and it is more common than not for doctors to prescribe generously medications that are addictive. These commonly prescribed addictive medications are stimulants, opioids, and anti-anxiety medications. Unfortunately, these medications are easily accessible because they are common medications that people do need to treat certain ailments. The problem is when these medications are prescribed to individuals who may or may not need these medications and therefore easily fall into patterns of abuse and addiction because when the medication runs out, and are unable to be refilled, they can be easily found on the street.

The Most Abused RX Medications

Some of the most commonly abused medications are prescription opioids, stimulants, and anti-anxiety. These medications are the most commonly prescribed because there is a need but these medications are also highly abused. Nearly once a year, around 20 million Americans use prescription medications without a prescription from a doctor.

Opiates are prescribed for chronic pain but are often abused with alcohol for recreational purposes.

Anti-anxiety medications such as alprazolam and diazepam are often abused because they create a similar feeling to alcohol that lowers inhibitions and relaxes the mind.

Stimulants, which are used to help those who struggle with ADHD are often abused because of their ability to keep their users awake and cause performance-enhancing effects. These are often abused by college students as well as long-haul truck drivers to stay awake on long trips or to study.

Dangers of RX Addiction

The problem with prescription medications is that they are needed and easily accessible. These medications are intended for limited use over short periods of time and always for specific purposes. When prescription medications such as opioids, stimulants, and anti-anxiety medications are used and abused repeatedly, the brain begins to adapt to the way these drugs work in the body, causing a habit. Once the brain has adapted to having these drugs in the body, it is difficult to break the connection that the brain forms with these medications which can bring forth harmful behaviors.

If an addiction to prescription medications forms the best way to get it under control is to find professional help at a Legacy Healing Center treatment program. Our treatment center programs help individuals and overcome addiction while being provided with excellent holistic treatment in a safe environment.
