Norco Addiction vs. Norco Dependency

Norco is an opiate painkiller that combines narcotic hydrocodone with acetaminophen to enhance the analgesic effect.

Overuse of prescription Norco, if not medically surveyed, leads to dependency. Norco dependency, if not treated, leads to Norco addiction. Norco addiction typically was not addressed medically earlier on when it could have been. This is true about abuse of any opiate pain reliever.

Norco addiction comes as a surprise to patients, because they did not choose to become dependent. They likely increased self-medication due to:

• Acute or chronic physical pain
• Unmanageable emotional pain, misdiagnosed depression, anxiety or trauma
• Euphoric impact of recreational drug use (head rush, physical elation)
• Alleviation of withdrawal symptoms due to dependency.

Proper medical treatment and psychological drug counseling can only be effective after the dependency is treated and the opiate is removed from the system.

Norco Addiction Symptoms

The Waismann Method of Rapid Detoxification views abuse and addiction as separate and distinct issues from physical dependence and tolerance.

Many patients who believe they have a Norco addiction or dependency come to us after prolonged self-medication. They feel afraid because they notice that their consumption has reached a dangerous level. Withdrawal symptoms start to plague them. They try to stop themselves, or fail in attempts at other drug treatment programs. Because they fear Norco addiction and withdrawal, they come to Waismann to be free of all opiate use.

Norco functions like most opiate prescriptions; becomes habit-forming over time; and, produces similar opiate withdrawal:

In addition, the acetaminophen component in high doses contributes to liver toxicity and its signs and symptoms.
