If you are addicted to Lorcet, stopping it on your own is not only difficult, but it can also be dangerous. Getting information about one of the top Lorcet rehab centers in the Pacific Northwest is the best way to proceed if you are addicted.Â
Lorcet Abuse: Why is Lorcet so Addictive?Â
Lorcet is actually a combination of hydrocodone and acetaminophen, and you may also find it under the names:Â
- Lortab
- Norco
- Zamicet
- Xodol
- VicodinÂ
It's prescribed for the purpose of treating acute pain, and it's not a drug that's meant to be taken long term. It is an Opiate, which means that its potential for addiction is much higher than some other types of pain relievers.Â
The human body is actually very capable of blocking pain on its own, but there are times when it needs a bit of a boost. Lorcet provides this boost, and the result is a “high” that not only relieves pain, but produces a release of endorphins and dopamine that you recognize as good. These chemicals are also released when you eat, drink water or have sex. Your body recognizes these as being necessary for survival, and taking Lorcet mimics these responses in the body. That's why Lorcet abuse so easily becomes a Lorcet addiction.Â
