Opiate Use Disorder

Introduction

 - Opiate use disorder is a group of addictive sedatives that in moderate doses

relieve pain and induce sleep.
 - Opiates are legally prescribed as pain medications.
 - Some common opiates include opium and morphine.
Psychological and Physical Effects of Opiates

 - Opiates produce euphoria, drowsiness, and lack of coordination.

 - They can also cause loss of inhibition and increased self-confidence.
 - After about 4 to 6 hours, a severe letdown can occur.
 - Heroin and OxyContin can produce a rush, which is intense feelings of warmth
and ecstasy following injection.
 - Opiates stimulate receptors of the body's opioid system, including the nucleus
accumbens.
Tolerance and Withdrawal

achieve the same effects.
 - Withdrawal symptoms can occur when someone stops taking opiates after
prolonged use.
 - Common withdrawal symptoms include muscle soreness and twitching,
tearfulness, and yawning.
 - Withdrawal symptoms can become more severe and also include cramps,
chills/sweating, an increase in heart rate and blood pressure, insomnia, and vomiting
Treatment for Opiate Use Disorder

 - Treatment for opiate use disorder typically involves medication-assisted

therapy, which includes medications like methadone and buprenorphine.
 - Behavioral therapy is also an important part of treatment and can help
individuals learn coping skills and address underlying issues that may have
contributed to their opiate use.
 - It's important to seek professional help if you or someone you know is
struggling with opiate use disorder.
Conclusion

 - Opiate use disorder is a serious condition that can have long-lasting effects on
an individual's physical and mental health.
 - However, with the right treatment and support, recovery is possible.
 - Remember to seek professional help if you or someone you know is struggling
with opiate use disorder.
Stimulants Use Disorder

Introduction

 - Stimulants are a class of drugs that increase alertness, energy, and

motor activity.
 - Amphetamines and cocaine are two common stimulants.
Amphetamines:

 - Amphetamines increase alertness and motor activity, reduce fatigue, and trigger
the release and block the reuptake of norepinephrine and dopamine.
 - Some common synthetic amphetamines include Benzedrine, Dexedrine, and
Methedrine.
 - They can produce high levels of energy, sleeplessness, reduce appetite, increase
heart rate, and constrict blood vessels in the skin and mucous membranes.
 - High doses of amphetamines can lead to nervousness, agitation, irritability,
confusion, paranoia, and hostility.
 - Tolerance can develop after only 6 days of use.
Methamphetamine

 - Methamphetamine (also known as crystal meth) is an amphetamine derivative.

 - It can be taken orally, intravenously, or intranasally (snorting).
 - Chronic use of methamphetamine can damage the brain
Cocaine

 - Cocaine is a stimulant that is derived from the coca plant.

 - It can be taken orally, intranasally (snorting), or intravenously.
 - Crack is a form of cocaine that quickly became popular in the 1980s. It is a
rock crystal that is heated and smoked.
 - Cocaine can produce feelings of euphoria, alertness, and increased energy.
 - High doses of cocaine can cause agitation, paranoia, and hallucinations
Treatment for Stimulant Use Disorder

 - Treatment for stimulant use disorder typically involves behavioral therapy.

 - Cognitive-behavioral therapy can help individuals learn coping skills and
address underlying issues that may have contributed to their stimulant use.
 - There are currently no FDA-approved medications for treating stimulant use
disorder, but research is ongoing.
Conclusion

 - Stimulant use disorder is a serious condition that can have long-lasting effects
on an individual's physical and mental health.
 - However, with the right treatment and support, recovery is possible.
