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
I have been going here for almost 2 years and have lost over 110 lbs. Ariel and Valarie closely monitor my health each month which helps me ensure that I’m losing weight the right way while gaining muscle mass. So glad I found this local, professional office!
Actually listened. Got an answer I've been looking for, for years, in two visits. Direct, to the point, knowledgeable.
In and out at a reasonable time, Dr Young was very friendly and personable. Got all of my concerns taken care of and gave me some great recommendations of places to ride motorcycles with my wife and I. Overall a great experience!
Really great listener and explains everything really thoroughly!
Dr. Weston Young is absolutely our favorite family PCP ever. He is professional, kind, attentive, respectful, knowledgeable, current, relevant and very personable! He respects each individual patient and their preferences. He gives options but leaves decisions up to the individual patient. All of our friends who also go to him agree. He’s a gem whom we highly recommend!
