If you or someone you care about is struggling with opiate dependence, know that help is available, and a path to healing is within reach.
Understanding Opiates
Opiates are substances derived from the opium poppy plant, commonly prescribed for pain relief. While medications like morphine, codeine, and hydrocodone are legally used for pain management, others such as heroin are illicit. All opiates interact with the brain’s receptors to alleviate pain and can induce feelings of euphoria, which heightens the risk of misuse and addiction.
Prolonged opiate use can alter brain chemistry, leading to physical and psychological dependence. Attempting to quit without professional assistance can result in severe withdrawal symptoms, intense cravings, and a high likelihood of relapse. At Agua Dulce Treatment Center, we offer specialized care to address the unique challenges of opiate addiction, guiding individuals toward sustained recovery.
