OxyContin Addiction

OxyContin addiction has become a quickly forming epidemic nationwide. Prescription drug abuse as a whole has greatly escalated, and OxyContin addiction is one of the most sought after abused narcotics today. When addiction occurs, including OxyContin addiction, a person has developed a dependence on the substance. Makers of OxyContin have been criticized for irresponsibly marketing the drug, allowing the increased risk for OxyContin addiction to occur.

OxyContin addiction will leave patients suffering symptoms if their bodies do not get more OxyContin put into them. Symptoms of OxyContin addiction can include insomnia, muscle and bone pain, sweats, diarrhea, vomiting, nausea, stomach cramping, muscle twitching, as well as other effects. The increase in OxyContin addictions has resulted in criminal acts to steal OxyContin. Now, OxyContin labeling changes are being made in hopes of reducing the risk of over prescribing OxyContin and as a result, reducing OxyContin addiction.
