Kennesaw Hydrocodone Rehab Center
Vicodin, Lortab & Norco Rehab in Kennesaw
Hydrocodone is a strong semi-synthetic opiate that is often prescribed to alleviate temporary pain, such as during the recovery time after surgery. Although it is prescribed often due to its effectiveness, it is also known to be highly addictive.
Hydrocodone can be found in these common prescriptions:
- Vicodin®
- Lortab®
- Norco®
- Zohydro®
Even if you attempt to closely follow your hydrocodone prescription, it is possible to become addicted to it. The substance is capable of causing a chemical dependency as well as a behavioral addiction, so it can be twice as difficult to challenge an addiction as when compared to many other substances.
If you live in Kennesaw, Georgia, and need support to fight hydrocodone addiction, call (678) 940-7873 right now. North Georgia Recovery Center is always available to discuss your rehab treatment options.
Understanding Hydrocodone Addiction
Hydrocodone addiction occurs when an individual develops a compulsive need to use the drug, despite the negative consequences. This can manifest in various ways, including:
- Tolerance: The need to use increasing amounts of hydrocodone to achieve the same effect.
- Withdrawal symptoms: Experiencing unpleasant physical and psychological symptoms when attempting to stop using hydrocodone.
- Cravings: Intense urges to use hydrocodone, even when aware of the risks.
- Neglecting responsibilities: Prioritizing hydrocodone use over work, family, and other important aspects of life.
- Legal and financial problems: Engaging in risky or illegal behaviors to obtain hydrocodone, such as theft or drug-related crimes.
How Long Does Hydrocodone Rehab Last?
The duration of hydrocodone rehab varies depending on individual needs and treatment goals. Typically, inpatient programs last several weeks, while outpatient programs can last for several months. The length of treatment is determined by a comprehensive assessment conducted by our experienced clinicians at North Georgia Recovery Center.
Health Consequences of Hydrocodone Addiction
Hydrocodone addiction is dangerous. In the short-term, abuse of the drug can cause dizziness, appetite loss, gastrointestinal distress, and lightheadedness. But long-term abuse or large doses of hydrocodone can cause much more hazardous health consequences, some of which can be life-threatening and require emergency medical intervention.
Hydrocodone abuse can cause these severe symptoms and side effects:
- Vomiting or inability to keep food down
- Respiratory weakness
- Seizures
- Heart failure
- Kidney disease
- Liver damage
- Severe anxiety and paranoia
- Depression
