Oxycontin Addiction Treatment

The drug is a powerful pain killer and widely used in clinical medicine. However, because of its mood altering effects, Oxycontin can be both abused and an intense addiction can be formed. Oxycontin has become an increasingly popular drug and rehab centers have noticed a vast increased in oxycontin related intakes over the past five years.

Addiction to OxyContin is sometimes unavoidable and develops when exposed to high doses for extended periods of time. The individual eventually adapts and develops a tolerance for the OxyContin. OxyContin mimics the action of chemicals in the brain that produce an artificial feeling of pleasure. More and more confidence is placed in OxyContin while necessary life functions are ignored. The result of this addiction cycle is a lack of concern for, and confidence in, other areas of life. Oxycontin addiction requires treatment.

There are many drug rehab centers and hospital based programs staffed with trained professionals to detox and provide treatment for addicted individuals. These programs will introduce the addict to the 12-step program and the journey of recovery commences. Residency in a structured recovery home or group home is crucial to on going recovery after discharging.
