Treatment of heroin addiction

Treatment of heroin addiction will help you get your life back on track.

Every day, many media, as well as numerous studies, draw attention to the problems brought about by alcoholism, tablet abuse, and addiction to illegal substances.

Like an epidemic, addictive disorders have dominated the 21st century by moving all age, social, and economic boundaries. There is almost no nation and part of the world that does not face them. Although many psychoactive substances have a negative impact on health, heroin remains the most dangerous one.

According to statistics, 0.7 percent of the global population aged between 15 and 64 uses heroin, of which about 8,000 die each year.

Experts emphasize that heroin is the greatest evil of the modern age

Heroin is a synthetic derivative of morphine, a substance obtained from the opium poppy. In its original form, it is white crystalline powder. However, clean heroin is not marketed. It is mixed with other substances to increase quantities, usually sugar and milk powder, talc, starch, paracetamol, although, it is not rare to find added gypsum, strychnine and other toxic substances that lower its quality and make it dangerous.

Earlier, heroin was the drug of the rich. Today, with increasing mixing with other substances, its quantity is increased, so it has become widely distributed. As a result, there has been an increase in the number of heroin consumers and addicts.

Bearing in mind the strong addiction, as well as the fatal outcome of this drug, the only way to treat drug addiction is the treatment of heroin addiction.

Treatment of heroin addiction restores physical and mental health

Heroin is a psychoactive substance with the fastest effect. Its effect is felt five minutes after snorting, while the intravenous injection exerts effect instantaneously.

Heroin binds to the brain receptors, accelerating the secretion of dopamine. In this way, a much stronger sense of happiness and satisfaction than in any other life activity develops. It comes as no surprise that one develops the desire to retake the drug.

That is why heroin creates a strong addiction very quickly. Namely, 97% of users developed an addictive disorder after three weeks of regular consumption.

Over time, the symptoms of heroin addiction lead to serious health problems, such as collapsed veins, stomach irritation due to vomiting, bacterial infections of the blood vessels, and cardiac valves. One can also develop lung, liver, and kidney diseases, as well as problems with the nervous, digestive, and reproductive system.

Because of the frequent sharing of injection accessories, people who use heroin are at a higher risk of developing dangerous infectious diseases – hepatitis and HIV.
