Understanding Heroin Addiction
Heroin is a highly addictive opioid drug that affects the brain's reward system. It creates intense euphoria followed by dangerous physical dependence that can develop rapidly, sometimes after just a few uses.
Many people who become addicted to heroin first misused prescription opioid painkillers. When prescription drugs become too expensive or difficult to obtain, some turn to heroin as a cheaper alternative.
Critical Warning
Heroin withdrawal can be extremely dangerous and should never be attempted without medical supervision.
