Prescription drug addiction has been on a steady increase in the past several years. There are more and more prescription drugs available each year and with increased supply and wide scale advertising in vogue, there are now more people with drug problems due to misuse of prescription drugs than illegal drugs.
Drug rehab centers have seen a rise in prescription drug addicts. Narconon is a non-profit organization that provides successful drug rehabilitation and education services to thousands every year. Narconon now commonly finds prescription drugs among the list of frequently abused substances. Oftentimes simply because prescription drugs are easier to get.
The White House Office of National Drug Control Policy in a recent report state more people are being initiated to prescription addiction now than illicit drugs. So not only do we now have 2.2 million new abusers of marijuana, we also now have 2.5 million new prescription drug abusers each year.
With drug abuse growing at alarming rates there needs to be an effective solution. In looking at the options out there for someone addicted to drugs, whether prescription or street drugs the answers aren't promoted nearly as much as the drug ads, making it difficult to find a drug rehab center that truly gets results.
In researching various addiction solutions including giving the addict a new drug to substitute for the old drug, telling the addict he cannot change his condition and must learn to live with it and simply going off "cold turkey" only the Narconon program stood out above the rest.
Narconon commonly sees a 70% success rate of addicts completing the program of permanent recovery from addiction. This far surpasses the 14% success rate of other programs. Although no drugs are used in the Narconon program, Narconon does use proper nutritional supplements as well as gentle physical techniques called "Assists" that alleviate the discomfort of withdrawal symptoms.
Tens of thousands of students have completed the Narconon program that has been in use for over 40 years. The program addresses both the physical as well as mental aspects of drug addiction.
Given the volume of prescription drugs flooding into society, the number of successful rehabilitation programs need to increase to meet the demand of both educating people on the dangers of addiction as well as providing a solution for those addicted. On both counts Narconon is providing solutions.
