What Is Morphine Addiction?
Morphine addiction stems from the chronic use of morphine, a narcotic that is part of a group of drugs known as opioid analgesics, sold under brand names such as MS Contin, Kadian, and Roxanol for intravenous pain relief or in a pill form.
Morphine is prescribed for severe pain management, such as post-surgery or cancer pain therapy. While Morphine is a powerful pain reliever, it also has a high potential for abuse and dependency. The addictive nature of morphine stems from its ability to cause euphoria, which can lead patients to misuse the drug. Over time, the body builds a tolerance to morphine, which is the most common morphine addiction symptom. This increased tolerance requires increased doses to gain the same effects, which results in both physical and psychological dependence.
Those addicted to morphine may find it challenging to stop using morphine despite the negative impact it has on their health, relationships, and daily life. Treatment for morphine addiction typically involves a combination of medical detox, behavioral therapy, and support programs to help individuals achieve and maintain sobriety.
