Codeine Addiction and Treatment

Codeine addiction and treatment is the best solution for any person that may be suffering from a Codeine addiction. In our addiction treatment programs, we recognize many different types of prescription drugs that can have the potential to be habit-forming and addictive. Codeine is a common type of narcotic painkiller that is often abused. Codeine is a synthetically produced opioid derived from morphine and is prescribed for sufferers of chronic pain. The drug is often found as an additive in certain aspirins and cough syrups and is used to treat mild to severe pain. Codeine is often abused due to these morphine-like effects, which cause drowsiness and dulling of the senses. It is also used as a starting material in two other highly addictive drugs; dihydrocodeine and Hydrocodone. Using any dosage (or form) of Codeine for more than a continuous period of 2-3 weeks increases the risk of becoming dependent on the drug.

Codeine addiction and treatment withdrawal can be difficult during the first few days and may cause symptoms that resemble that of a common cold, such as fever, runny nose and headaches. The following days and weeks may also involve symptoms such as yawning, sweating, muscle and bone pain, irregular heartbeat, insomnia, vomiting, weakness and stomach cramps.

Our facility and programs offer detoxification for those suffering Codeine dependency and addiction. Because Codeine falls into the opiate category, it is hard to get off of the drug without a structured detox plan. The detox process may include a variety of options to make the process as safe and comfortable as possible.
