Pickerel Lake Recovery Finding More And More
Prescription Drug Users Are In Need Of Recovery
(1888PressRelease) We often read about how to
tell if were addicted to prescription
painkillers and what to do if we are addicted but
rarely see ourselves as having a problem. John
Haines Executive Director of Pickerel Lake
Recovery says We often read about how to tell
if were addicted to prescription painkillers and
what to do if we are addicted but rarely see
ourselves as having a problem. But what about
the early signs - signs that could indicate the
need to take action before we become
dependent Haines further states Few people
wake up one morning suddenly addicted to
prescription opiates. The process is typically
more gradual and there are numerous opportunities
for early intervention. It is further noted that
the earliest signs that your use of pain
medication is beginning to cross the line into
addiction are as follows -Youre starting to
use your pain medication to feel better not just
to ease pain. -Youre thinking about increasing
your dose even though your doctor has not
recommended it. -Youre starting to take the
medication automatically even though your pain
has subsided. -Youre spending more and more time
thinking about and getting medication. -Youve
lost interest in non-drug pain management
options. Every year more than 50 million
prescriptions are written for opioid painkillers
in Canada. Less than 20 percent of Canadians will
use their medication for non-medical purposes
according to the National Institutes of Health.
By staying alert to the indicators of dependency
and talking to your doctor at the first warning
signs you increase the chances that you will
benefit from the pain relief offered by
prescription opiates without falling prey to
addiction.

What is worse and we are seeing more of it is the
increase of Heroin use among prescription drug
users as the manufacturers and pharmaceutical
companies have now changed to using a non abusive
form of Oxy Contin called Oxy-Neo which has
driven the street price of the old Oxy way up
making Heroin a cheaper substitute Very Very
dangerous Says Haines and finally states With
a format of awareness we will not see as many
people in treatment for prescription drug
dependence. http//www.pickerellakerecovery.com
