Addiction can cause physical, psychological and emotional harm to those who are affected by it. Addiction is a treatable, chronic medical disease. People with addiction use substances or engage in behaviours that become compulsive and often continue despite harmful consequences. The addict suffers from psychological dependence and some may suffer from physical dependence.
The team of Psychiatrists and Psychologists of Health1 Super Speciality Hospitals offers treatment which includes medication, counselling and sharing of experience with other addicts.
Drug rehabilitation is the process of medical or psychotherapeutic treatment for dependence on psychoactive substances such as alcohol, prescription drugs and street drugs (like cannabis, cocaine, heroin or amphetamines).
