Prescription Drug Addiction

The use of nonmedical prescription drugs increased dramatically in the 1990s, and remains at a high level. In 2007, approximately 7 million people aged 12 or older reported nonmedical use of a prescription drug. The most commonly abused medications are painkillers or opioids, with 5.2 million users. 1.2 million people use stimulants like methylphenidate and amphetamine. There are over 2 million users of central nervous system depressants like benzodiazepines. Like many illicit substances, these drugs alter the activity of the brain and can cause many adverse consequences, including addiction. For example, opioid pain relievers like Vicodin or OxyContin can cause health risks similar to opioids like heroin. The effects of these drugs depend on dose, route of administration and combination with other drugs. Because of increased use of nonmedical drugs, more people visit the emergency room at hospitals for accidental poisonings and treatment addictions. Treatments for prescription drugs tend to be similar to those for illicit drugs that affect the same brain systems. Thus, doctors prescribe buprenorphine to treat addiction to opioid pain medications. Behavioral therapies help addicts cope with stimulant, but there are no medicinal treatments for central nervous system depressant addictions.

Eat Nutritious Foods

Choose a variety of nutritious foods every day, such as whole grain breads and cereals, lean meats, low-fat or fat-free milk and milk products and a variety of fruits and vegetables, like apples, berries, carrots and kale. Remember that health and weight depend on both an eating plan and physical activity. Healthful foods give the body the energy it needs to be active. Get support. Encourage family and friends to support a healthy lifestyle. Form walking groups with coworkers, play with children outside or take a dance class with friends.
Regular physical activity may help a person feel and move better. Whether a person wants to achieve and maintain a healthy weight or improve overall health, becoming physically active is a step in the right direction. It is never too early or too late to make physical activity a part of everyday life!
