Drug addiction is the uncontrollable repeated use of substances such as alcohol, prescription drugs, and street drugs such as heroin, amphetamines, cocaine, and cannabis despite their damaging effect on the brain. Used over time, a person’s ability to stop using these drugs becomes impossible without medical intervention. This is due to repeated drug use’s long-term effects on different parts of the brain concerned with reward and motivation, control over behavior, and memory.
Drug addiction is a chronic disease that requires treatment for patients to stop using. An effective drug addiction rehab program helps a person stop using drugs, remain drug-free, and be a productive member in the family and society.
