Learn About OxyContin Addiction Treatment

Treatment for OxyContin addiction at Bradford Recovery Center in Millerton, PA

OxyContin addiction is a type of opioid use disorder characterized by a chemical dependency on prescription opioid pain relievers. OxyContin is the brand name for oxycodone hydrochloride, and when taken as directed by your doctor, it is safe to use for pain relief. But if a person misuses OxyContin by taking more than their doctor prescribes or taking it when they don’t need it, they can become dependent on the drug and end up developing a substance use disorder.

Like other opioids such as heroin or fentanyl, OxyContin interacts with the opioid receptors in the brain, changing the way the brain responds to pain and producing a feeling of euphoria in addition to pain relief. An individual who suffers from an OxyContin addiction and doesn’t seek treatment will develop a significant tolerance to opioids and will experience severe withdrawal symptoms if they suddenly stop taking them.

Many people who have untreated OxyContin addiction develop severe cravings for opioids, and any substances that look like whole or crushed pills can trigger these cravings. This can make it very challenging for individuals who are struggling with OxyContin addiction to stop abusing opioids or prevent relapse even if their opioid abuse is causing harm in their daily lives.

Bradford Recovery Center, located in the tranquil mountains of Millerton, Pennsylvania, provides personalized treatment for adults age 18 and older who are struggling with OxyContin addiction. Seeking help for an opioid use disorder is the first step toward a more fulfilling life that is free from the confines of addiction. The expert staff at our addiction treatment center can help you or your loved one get on the road to long-term recovery.

Why Consider Treatment at Bradford

Why consider getting OxyContin addiction treatment at Bradford Recovery Center in Millerton, PA

If you or someone you care about is suffering from OxyContin addiction, it is vital to seek treatment as soon as possible so that you do not experience any long-term effects. When an individual abuses OxyContin, they might experience a wealth of distressing side effects, such as constipation, nausea, vomiting, sleepiness, dizziness, headaches, sweating, and loss of appetite.

Many people who suffer from OxyContin addiction engage in illegal activities, such as forgery, burglary, or receiving stolen goods, in order to obtain opioids. Engaging in these activities puts them at a higher risk for getting in trouble with the law, and many people who have untreated OxyContin addiction also experience frequent arrests or incarceration.

The longer an individual abuses OxyContin, the higher their risk of starting to abuse illegal substances such as heroin. This elevates their health risk because illegal street drugs are often laced with other unknown substances that can cause permanent damage to the body. And taking large doses of any opioid can cause an individual’s breathing to slow until they eventually stop breathing, leading to accidental death.

The caring and compassionate staff at Bradford Recovery Center in Millerton, Pennsylvania, can help you or your loved one get treatment for OxyContin addiction. When you seek care at our addiction treatment center at the first signs of an opioid use disorder, you lower your risk of experiencing any long-term effects of OxyContin addiction.
