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
Absolutely love this clinic and their staff! Dr young Valerie and Ariel changed my life. Due to thyroid issues I gained an extra 30 lbs. With their guidance and medication and care I was able to lose that and 20 extra so 50 lbs in total! So worth the money, my cholesterol and blood pressure went down, I was making healthier food choices and all in all my life is just better! Having met my goal weight I was able to taper down my dose! Love coming to see them! Do something good for yourself and your health, go see them. There are plenty of other places that are advertising compounded semaglutide but they get theirs from a reputable compounding pharmacy and actually care about their patients! With their membership it is very affordable and they also provide primary care for me, without any co pays. Cannot recommend them enough!
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!
