Do medicines can't work in drug alcohol etc. addictions..?"?" Answered by:Ms Manasi Jain

Yes, medicines are helpful in gettig out of the addictions under the strict guidance and observation of the doctor. Medicines help manage the withdrawal symptoms and reduce drug craving.

Can someone addicted to multiple substances?"?" Answered by:Ms Manasi Jain

Yes, a person can be addicted to one or more substances. When a person is addicted to at least three different classes of substances (Alcohol, opiates, cannabis, amphetamines, hallucinogens, inhalants and benzodiazepines) without any specific preference it is called as Polysubstance Dependence. Adolescents and young adults have greater chances of using multiple substances. The treatment for multiple substance addictions is much more challenging and usually requires close monitoring through admission to a substance rehabilitation unit where both medical and psychological treatments are provided. People start using polysubstance to experience greater relaxation and more sedative effects. With each addition the negative side effects of each drug are also magnified. If you know of anyone addicted to multiple substances, encourage them to seek medical help to overcome the addiction.
