Jake farr opioid addiction
•    Opioids are synthetically formed
    substances derived from the
    Opium Poppy.

• These substances are used to
  treat moderate to severe pain in
  medicines like Codeine,
  Hydrocodone, and Oxycodone.

• Opioids change the way the brain
  reacts to pain and is claimed to
  produce euphoria and relaxation—
  making opioids highly popular for
  recreational abuse.
• Codeine – commonly known for its use in
  Tylenol 3.

• Hydrocodone – known by the brand names
  Lortab, Lorcet, Vicodin, and Norco.

• Oxycodone – brand names including
  Percocet, Percodan, and OxyContin.

• Hydromorphone – known most commonly
  by the brand name Opana.

• Meperidine – known by the name Demerol.

• Fentanyl – powerful opioid known by the
  brand names Abstral, Actiq, Fentora, and
  Onsolis.
• Opioids affect the brain by stimulating
  the opioid receptors and flooding
  dopamine, a chemical that rewards you
  with happiness, causing a rush of
  euphoria and pleasant relaxation.

•    Over time, however, a tolerance or
    resistance to the drug is built—forcing
    the user to use more or a stronger
    dosage in order to receive the ―high.‖

• The brain and body becomes used to the
  drug stimulation and begins depending
  on it for dopamine production. Without
  the drug, the user would experience
  physical and mental withdrawal.
Methods of getting the drug faster
into the system to experience a more
intense ―high‖ include:

    • Orally – swallowing pills on
      empty stomach or chewing.
    • Intranasal – crushing up and
      inhaling the drug through the
      nose to be absorbed by
      mucus membranes.
    • Smoking – practiced usually
      by placing substance on tin
      foil and lighting from
      underneath, directly inhaling
      smoke.
    • Intravenously – injecting the
      mixture of powder substance
      and water.
• Popularity of the drug has created in
  crisis in the U.S. Illegal use of
  opiates was previously linked with
  Heroin use. Now in a familiar pill,
  opiate use has risen dramatically.
• Painkiller addiction is an expensive
  habit, causing the addict to suffer
  financially. Theft and forging
  prescriptions are common methods
  of obtaining these drugs and
  crumble any healthy relationships
  the addict has.
• Addiction/ Overdose on these
  medications has gained media
  coverage with celebrities suffering
  from addiction that millions face
  across the country.
• Drugs like Methadone and Subutex are
  given in clinics to those who are
  dangerously addicted to these substances
  and are desperate for help in order to
  wean them off.

• There are many in-patient and out-patient
  rehabilitation centers that provide medical
  and psychological care for those suffering
  with Opioid addiction.

• If you or someone you know is suffering
  with addiction, call your local Crisis Hotline
  for advice.
