When a person is addicted to a drug and if the person fails to control the urge, they are given addiction control treatment. This condition is concerned with illegal drugs, nicotine, painkillers, and alcohol. Usage of drugs regularly affects the ability of the brain to function, which leads to failure in controlling the urge to take the drug. This change in the functioning of the brain occurs over some time. Along with the brain functionality, drug addiction also affects impairments in health, social function, and voluntary control over substance use. It results in losing control over themselves, which further leads to damaging behaviors. Opioid painkillers have a high risk and can result in swift addiction in comparison to other types of drugs. Addiction to drugs range in duration, severity, and complexity from mild to severe.
