What Are Amphetamines?A woman and her therapist discuss NAD amphetamine abuse treatment in springfield la

People frequently abuse amphetamines. Amphetamines are central nervous system stimulants; doctors prescribe them for ADHD and sleep disorders. Because the drug produces feelings of euphoria, amphetamines are highly addictive. However, if you take them as prescribed, under strict medical supervision, they are usually safe. However, when you abuse amphetamines, they will have severe adverse effects due to the increased dopamine levels in the brain. Repeated abuse or repeated overuse can cause:

  • Muscle breakdown and overall malnutrition
  • Inability to efficiently navigate normal thought processes
  • Heart problems
  • Strokes
  • Paranoia and hostile feelings
  • Psychosis
  • Delusions

Amphetamines On The Street

Amphetamines are sold on street corners every day. There are also derivative street drugs based on the structure of amphetamines. Some of these drugs include methamphetamine and MDMA, otherwise known as ecstasy.

What To Expect When You First Stop Taking Amphetamines

Fortunately, the list of withdrawal symptoms is not a long one. Though you will experience drug cravings, depression, anxiety, and fatigue, the most intense symptom is the cravings. There is a high possibility of overdose if you are unable to avoid relapse. Overdosing is more likely because the drug cravings intensify, and your drug tolerance may be high. As a result, you may need more amphetamines to feel an effect. Seeking amphetamine abuse treatment is critical. You need someone to monitor the effects of withdrawal and to keep you on the road to recovery.

NAD Amphetamine Abuse Treatment Springfield LA

NAD is a treatment option that assists with amphetamine detox. Due to the detrimental effects that prolonged or excessive amphetamine use causes the central nervous system, NAD can be useful. The abuse of amphetamines and other stimulating drugs can lead to excessive stimulation. This aftereffect causes damage to the nerve cells. Intravenous NAD is also known as nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. Scientists find this chemical compound in all living cells. Intravenous introduction during drug detoxification helps to restore the body to its natural balance. The damage can be repaired easily with continuous infusions of this substance. At Springfield Recovery Wellness Center, we incorporate the use of NAD with comprehensive, traditional substance abuse treatment.
