How Prescription Drugs and Illicit Substances Lead to Dependence
Understanding Opiates
Opiates are a class of drugs derived from the opium poppy, often used to treat moderate to severe pain. These substances—including morphine, codeine, hydrocodone, and heroin—act on the brain’s opioid receptors to reduce pain and produce feelings of pleasure or euphoria.
While effective for short-term pain management, prolonged use of opiates can lead to physical and psychological dependence. As tolerance builds, individuals may require higher doses to feel relief, triggering a dangerous cycle of misuse, withdrawal symptoms, and relapse.
At Casa Leona, we address the full scope of opiate addiction with an integrated, whole-person approach.
