What Are Opioids?
The term “Opioid” refers to substances that are used to interact with opioid receptors in nerves as a way to reduce pain. Many opioids are intentionally prescribed and provided by physicians for short term pain reduction, while others are manufactured and sold illegally as recreational drugs.
The challenge is that opioids can also be highly addictive. Taking opioids for even a short while, or outside of the prescribed dose, can cause the brain to become highly addicted and lead to potential short and long term abuse. As these medications can be dangerous in high doses, it becomes critical to address them immediately to prevent overdose and health-related issues.
As a psychiatrist that treats opioid addiction here in Dallas, we provide treat opioid use disorder with a combination of medication – which reduces dependency, cravings, and withdrawal symptoms – and personalized psychiatric care and counseling to help manage the addiction and improve your quality of life.
