Signs of Prescription Drug Addiction

A person addicted to prescription drugs experiences cravings for the substance, rising tolerance, and a need for higher doses. Going without the drug of abuse or attempting to quit "cold turkey" may cause withdrawal symptoms. 

If you're concerned that a family member or loved one may be addicted to prescription medications, look for these warning signs:

  • Behavioral changes: isolation, secrecy, poor decision-making, lethargy, or increased energy

  • Taking medication in higher or more frequent doses than prescribed

  • Changed sleeping patterns

  • Difficulty maintaining relationships

  • Financial and legal problems, such as forging prescriptions

  • Loss of interest in activities and hobbies

  • Mood swings, or signs of depression and anxiety

  • Nausea, sweating, and tremors if drug use stops

  • Physical changes: appearance, poor hygiene, weight loss

  • Seeking prescriptions from more than one doctor

How Prescription Drug Addiction Impacts Your Health

The consequences of medication abuse depend on the drug. Stimulants can cause anxiety and weight loss, while drowsiness, nausea, and confusion are associated with depressant abuse. Other risks include neurological damage, organ failure, and psychosis.

Short-term Effects

The short-term effects of prescription drug abuse include drowsiness, clumsiness, confusion, and impaired judgment, which can lead to unnecessary risks and accidental injury. Excessive use of some drugs causes potentially fatal respiratory failure. People experience cravings and withdrawal symptoms when drug use stops.

  • Apathy

  • Cognitive impairment

  • Constipation

  • Drowsiness

  • Emotional numbness

  • Impaired respiration

  • Listlessness

  • Mood swings

  • Reduced pain sensitivity

Long-term Effects

Long-term abuse of prescription drugs causes severe damage to your body and mind. Growing physical dependence and tolerance leads to increased consumption and endangers your vital organs, including your brain, heart, and liver. Increasing anxiety, depression, and financial and legal problems reduce your ability to function in daily life.

  • Anxiety and paranoia

  • Brain damage

  • Chronic pain

  • Heart failure

  • Mental illness

  • Respiratory failure

  • Severe depression
