What Is Addiction?
Addiction, also referred to as substance abuse disorder, is a chronic condition characterized by an intense need to use certain substances, such as alcohol or prescription medications, including opioids. This dependency often leads to various physical and psychological symptoms that can disrupt daily life and impact health. People struggling with addiction may find that their behavior becomes increasingly difficult to control. At Younger Medical Health and Wellness in Queen Creek and Scottsdale, AZ, our dedicated team is here to support patients by providing specialized medical addiction treatment to manage these symptoms and assist in the recovery journey.
How Is Addiction Treated?
At Younger Medical Health and Wellness, our addiction treatment services are structured to address each individual's unique needs. Our team provides medical addiction treatment with FDA-approved prescription medications to help ease withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings. For opioid addiction, options like methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone may be prescribed while medications such as acamprosate and disulfiram are available for those with alcohol dependency. Additionally, medication support for tobacco addiction is offered. These treatments are part of a broader, maintenance-focused approach aimed at providing sustained support throughout recovery.
What Are the Symptoms of Addiction?
When dealing with prescription medication addiction, addiction recovery symptoms may vary from person to person but can include:
- Strong cravings for the substance, making it challenging to resist
- Increased tolerance, needing higher doses to achieve the same effects
- Withdrawal symptoms, such as sweating, nausea, or irritability, when not using the substance
- Disruption in personal, work, or social activities
- Feelings of anxiety, depression, or anger related to substance use
If you or a loved one experiences any of these signs, seeking addiction treatment services is essential for finding relief and support.
Younger Medical Health and Wellness Reviews
This office and this doctor made me feel important and I have been all over the United States have been able to have a zoom appointment and an inside appointment takes Medicare. Yeah good guy all around great office. Thanks so much for alleviating my blood pressure just by talking.
Great experience each time I head in for a visit/check up. Dr. Young is awesome and the entire staff is friendly and understanding (I can be a pain).
Dr. Young was great. First appointment he took some extra time to get to know me and make sure he was prescribing exactly what was needed not taking anything for granted. His care was much appreciated.
Amazing listener and extremely helpful. Takes time - Love his likeness to the family doctors of years gone by forever!He cares!
The doctor was very courteous and professional, he is one of the best doctors I've ever had and I'm 75 years old and I've had a lot of doctors
