Pharmaceutical drug abuse is the most common and biggest threat to every country all over the world. Millions of people become victim to this addiction disease every year and thousands die because of the effects of these drugs. There are various types of pharmaceutical drugs that are used for addiction, but the most used drugs so far are the painkillers. Painkiller addiction is the most common form of addiction nowadays. This addiction to painkillers has increased a lot in the past few years. This addiction just came out of nowhere. Previously, no one could ever think of getting high by consuming few painkillers. Strong painkillers like oxycodone, vicodin, oxycontyn, precocets are used for this purpose.

The greatest disadvantage on the Government’s part is that they cannot ban these medicines as these medicines are used at huge extent in the medical sector for curing patients. The disadvantage of the government has proved to be quite advantageous for the addicts; they do not have to face any problem for getting these medicinal drugs. There is no particular age group of these pharmaceutical drug abusers; the age range of these drug abusers varies from teenagers to old people. Many teenagers do not even have to buy these painkillers; they get their daily dosage by stealing some pills from the bottle of painkillers that has been prescribed for their parents by the doctor. Cases of buying painkillers illegally have also been observed.

Most teenagers do not even know about the side effects of painkiller addiction. They start taking the pills sometimes due to mere curiosity, sometimes for experimenting the effects and even sometimes to show their caliber in front of their friends. The heightened feeling of these painkillers drives them to take the pills again and again, resulting to painkiller addiction. The ill-effects of painkillers do not show up instantly. After continuing with the addiction to painkillers for a long period of time the effects can be noticed. The most common effects that can be noticed are:

1. Sleeping for long periods of time.
2. Excessive yawning.
3. Red, dilated eyes.
4. Nausea.
5. Runny nose.
6. Muscle pain.
7. Drowsiness.

Most parents are unaware of the fact that their kids are getting painkiller addicts until the severe effects come to their notice. By the time these effects show up, the mind and body of the addict already gets too much affected. Stopping the consuming of painkillers all of a sudden do not help, rather it worsens the condition of the addict.
