Prescription medications are prescribed by a doctor, many people are surprised to learn that these drugs can be just as addictive and deadly as illicit or illegal drugs. Often if a person finds they have developed a dependency to prescription medications, the symptoms manifest in the same way as illicit drug abuse. Because these medications are prescribed by a doctor or physician it can be hard to identify prescription drug addiction. At My healing space PLLC in Denver, Aurora, CO we treat this addiction.
