    Drug addiction is a complex brain disease that changes the brain's structure and function over time. It can start through experimentation or prescribed painkillers, and individuals feel they cannot function without their drug of choice. This leads to issues that impact goals, relationships and health. Drug addiction requires integrated treatment of mind, body and spirit as brain changes can be long-lasting and fatal without treatment. Relapse is common but ongoing treatment should be adjusted based on individual response.

    <article>Drug addiction is a complex neurobiological disease that requires
    integrated treatment of the mind, body, and spirit. It is considered a brain
    disease because drugs change the brain‚ its structure and how it works./Drug
    addiction can start with experimentation in social settings, becoming more frequent
    with time. Other drug addictions (especially those involving opioids) start when
    taking prescribed medications.In fact, prescription painkillers are the most abused
    drug in the US after marijuana. More individuals die from opioid painkiller
    overdoses every day than from traffic accidents and gun deaths combined.Individuals
    struggling with drug addiction often feel they cannot function normally without
    their drug of choice. This can lead to a wide range of issues that impact
    professional goals, personal relationships, and overall health. Over time, these
    serious side effects can be progressive and, if left untreated, fatal.What is the
    Best Definition of Drug Addiction?Drug addiction is a chronic, progressive brain
    disease that requires integrated treatment of the mind, body, and spirit. Brain
    changes can be long-lasting, and the disease can be fatal without treatment.Drug
    use, when addiction takes hold, is compulsive and difficult to control, despite its
    harmful consequences.Relapse is common but isn’t necessarily a sign that drug
    addiction treatment isn’t working. Such treatment should be ongoing and adjusted
    based on how you respond to it.</article>
