    Addiction is a chronic brain disease that is caused by substance misuse. Repeated drug use leads to changes in the brain's structure and function that persist long after substance use has stopped. As a result, drug cravings and addictive behaviors can continue unless treated. Treatment needs to help the individual stop drug use and address the underlying causes that led to drug abuse.
