Demerol Abuse and Addiction Treatment

Demerol is a trade name for a drug known as Pethadine, an opioid analgesic drug that is fast acting and is used to alleviate moderate to severe pain. Pethadine is also the primary drug of name brand drugs Algil, Alodan, Centralgin, Dispadol, Dolantin, Dolestine, Dolosal, Dolsin, and Mefedina. It may be prescribed in hydrochloride form as tablets, as a syrup or via intramuscular injection.

As an opiate, Demerol is widely abused for its euphoric properties, and is taken orally, intravenously, intranasally and smoked. This euphoria can easily lead to dependence on the medication. Users rapidly develop tolerance to the effect, and require increasing escalations in doses seeking to achieve euphoria.
