Codeine Addiction Treatment
Codeine is an opioid pain medication referred to as a narcotic that is used to relieve mild to moderate pain. It can also be found in some cough syrups. Addiction to this substance is absolutely possible, and it can occur quickly before even knowing it. It can help relieve symptoms, but it will not treat the cause or speed recovery. This common ingredient in cough and cold medications can cause serious issues if someone becomes addicted to it. Cypress Lake Recovery specializes in working with people who need help dealing with chronic pain in a holistic way with treatments.
Chronic Pain Management
Wherever you experienced the effects of codeine, whether it’s from cough and cold medications or other forms, don’t ever rule out addiction because it can happen to anyone. Prescription drugs and other medications can help with chronic pain, but when they are abused, you’re left with an even greater problem. Cypress Lake Recovery wants you to know that there are other ways to reduce chronic pain with our chronic pain management system that includes customizing the treatment to address your localized pain that is unique to you.
Use of Codeine
As we said, Codeine can be found in plenty of cough and cold medications, which makes it easier for people to become dependent and even addicted to. Some people who become addicted to this drug may seek out other ways to get the relief they want. The thing to know is that Codeine becomes Morphine in the body, but only 8-12 percent as powerful as pure Morphine. Once there is a tolerance to Codeine, then stronger Opioids might be sought out to get the better effect.

The program at Cypress Lake Recovery works! I emerged from an accumulation of unrecognized emotions, issues of trust, and unresolved grief and loss. 35-days of effective integration of customized quality therapy reconnected my mind, body, spirit, and I am worth it! I had masked emotions and hurtful events for decades with alcohol. At Cypress Lake Recovery I safely focused deep within to unleash harmful secrets and self-degradation. Tools of recovery were practiced, not just presented. Integrative therapies were tailored to my circumstances, thus were effective. This residential program is like no other. For me, Cypress Lake Recovery delivered what was professed. I am forever grateful for this gift of healing.
