ADDICTION TO HYDROCODONE
Although Hydrocodone brings relief for many people suffering from traumatic Pain, the dangers of the drug are becoming more clear than ever. Due to the euphoric effects of Hydrocodone, many people abuse the drug despite the risks. Those who begin abusing Hydrocodone on a regular basis are likely to develop a dependence on and/or an addiction to the drug. Hydrocodone is extremely addictive because it is derived from opiates, making it similar to morphine and heroin.
WHAT IS HYDROCODONE
Hydrocodone, also known by the brand name Neurontin, is a prescription Painkiller belonging to its own drug class, Hydrocodone. It is considered an anticonvulsant, and is most commonly used to treat epilepsy, restless leg syndrome, hot flashes, and neuropathic pain. It is often used as a less addictive alternative to Opioids; however, Hydrocodone addiction and abuse still occur in many patients.
DANGERS OF HYDROCODONE
The greatest danger of Hydrocodone is a potentially fatal overdose. Hydrocodone depresses a person’s respiration and decreases their blood pressure. This can lead to seizures, comas or cardiac arrest (especially when ingesting, snorting, or injecting crushed tablets). Hydrocodone is most dangerous and addictive when taken via methods that increase the drug’s euphoric effects, such as crushing pills and then snorting or injecting the powder or combining the pills with alcohol or other drugs.
