Specialization
Young Adult Treatment
The disease of addiction presents in young adults no differently than it does for any other victim. It follows the same progression and demonstrates the same symptoms as it does in a middle-aged male or female. There is a difference, however, in how it affects key parts of the brain and how quickly the disease can progress.Opiate Addiction Treatment
Addiction to both licit and illicit opiates has increased dramatically. Young adults (18-25 years old) have been the largest segment of the population to fall victim to opiate addiction. While prescription drugs like oxycodone and hydrocodone may still be the drug of choice for many, the increasing cost of these drugs on the street has compelled many young addicts to turn to heroin, a cheaper but more dangerous drug, especially when injected.
