Opioid Use Disorders:: Therapeutic Manuals for Healing and Recuperation
()
About this ebook
Opioids, sometimes known as narcotics, are pain relievers recommended by doctors to manage chronic or severe pain. Opioid medicines are designed to relieve pain, but they've been widely promoted and inappropriately administered, resulting in a slew of injuries and fatalities.
Abuse of opioids can cause vomiting, mood swings, a loss of capacity to reason (cognitive function), and potentially respiratory failure, coma, or death. Opioids have a significant potential for addiction, and overdoses and deaths are prevalent.
The easy-to-read format of the book should make it appealing to readers. Professionals in the Social Sciences, Education, Health, and other Helping Professions will find the book highly valuable.

ABUSE, MISUSE AND ADDICTION OF OPIOID SUBSTANCES
Introduction
Drug misuse is a multifaceted problem that impacts individuals, families, and society as a whole. The physical, psychological, and social levels of individuals and society are all affected as a result of teenage drug addiction.

Almost every country in the world is afflicted by citizens abusing one or more drugs.
Addiction, drug abuse, and misuse are all major public health issues. Many individuals frequently use these phrases interchangeably since they all relate to the use of illicit drugs as well as the improper use of legal substances (such as cigarettes, alcohol, and prescription medications). But each issue's interventions differ substantially from one another. The importance of accurately diagnosing a person's drug use is due to this. Medication on prescription has a lot of positive impacts. They can make us live longer, healthier lives when used properly under medical care.
