Understanding Opioid Addiction

Opioid addiction is a complex and challenging medical disorder affecting millions of individuals worldwide. Factors such as genetic predisposition, environmental influences, mental health issues, trauma history, and chronic pain conditions can all contribute to opioid addiction. 

Opioids are a class of drugs that include both prescription painkillers like oxycodone and hydrocodone, as well as illegal substances like heroin. These drugs interact with the brain’s opioid receptors to produce feelings of euphoria, pleasure, and pain relief.

Unfortunately, prolonged use or misuse of opioids leads to tolerance. Tolerance means higher doses are needed to achieve the desired effects. As tolerance builds, dosages increase, resulting in physical dependence and eventual addiction. As a result, people experience cravings and withdrawal symptoms when not using opioids. 

Furthermore, the risk of accidental overdose and death increases as tolerance continues to build. As reported by NIDA, overdose deaths increased from 21,089 in 2010 to 47,600 in 2017, where they remained relatively steady through 2019. Then, in 2020, there was a significant increase in deaths, with 68,630 fatalities. The number of deaths increased in 2021 again to 80,411.

Types of Opioids

Heroin

Opioids come in many different forms including prescription medications, illegal drugs, and synthetic opioids. The most common illegal opioid is heroin. Heroin is produced and sold illegally for recreational use and is highly addictive, leading to addiction symptoms.

Synthetic Opioids

Synthetic opioids are drugs that are produced in a laboratory that affect the brain in a similar way that other opioids do. The most common synthetic opioid is Fentanyl. Fentanyl is similar to morphine but is 50 to 100 times more potent.

Prescription Opioids

Lastly, prescription opioids are medications that are prescribed to treat moderate to severe pain. Common prescription opioids are oxycodone (OxyContin®), hydrocodone (Vicodin®), codeine, and morphine. All of these drugs can be highly addictive if misused or abused. Proper opioid addiction treatment will be necessary if you develop dependence, tolerance, or addiction.

How Long Does Opioid Rehab Last?

The duration of opioid rehab can vary depending on individual needs, treatment goals, and the level of care required. In general, opioid rehab programs typically last between one and three months. However, our clients should never feel rushed to complete rehab in a set period. We encourage our clients to work on their recovery at a pace they are most comfortable with to ensure long-term success.
