TOLERANCE, DEPENDENCE AND DISCLAIMERS

Regardless of the type of medication, some patients may experience dependence or addiction to a substance. It is important to recognize the signs of addiction and abuse. When a patient becomes dependent on a substance and stops use, physical and mental symptoms will occur. Below are some symptoms and signs of dependency or substance abuse:

  • Not meeting obligations and work responsibilities, or cutting back on social or recreational activities because of drug use.
  • Continuing to use the drug, even though you know it’s causing problems in your life or causing you physical or psychological harm.
  • Over time, needing more of the drug to get the same effect.
  • Making certain that you maintain a supply of the drug.
  • Doing things to get the drug that you normally wouldn’t do, such as stealing.
  • Driving or doing other risky activities when you’re under the influence of the drug.
  • Failing in your attempts to stop using the drug.
  • Experiencing withdrawal symptoms when you attempt to stop taking the drug.

If you are concerned that you are developing a dependency please contact your  physician  immediately. Although Mayflower has no affiliation with the below programs, these may prove to be a good resource if you need help with dependency.
