Codeine Addiction Treatment
Codeine addiction can start slowly, often beginning with legitimate pain or cough treatment. Into Action Recovery Centre provides men-only inpatient addiction treatment that helps individuals stabilize, address codeine dependence, and rebuild control over their lives.
Codeine addiction can develop gradually, often beginning with legitimate pain or cough treatment. Because codeine is prescribed and commonly viewed as lower risk, dependence may go unnoticed until tolerance increases and stopping becomes difficult. Over time, use can shift from medical relief to reliance, creating a loss of control that often requires structured inpatient treatment to address.
Codeine Use and Dependence
Codeine use is generally not a concern when it is taken exactly as prescribed, for a short and clearly defined period, and without increasing dosage or frequency. In these cases, use remains stable and does not interfere with daily functioning, decision making, or emotional regulation.
Where the Line Shifts
The line begins to shift when tolerance builds, stopping causes withdrawal symptoms, or the medication becomes something you rely on to feel normal, manage stress, sleep, or get through the day. This transition is usually gradual, which is why many men do not recognize the problem until dependence is firmly established.
Understanding Withdrawal and Early Recovery
Men who develop dependence on codeine often experience withdrawal symptoms when use is reduced or stopped. These symptoms can be uncomfortable and can make it difficult to remain abstinent without support, even when someone is motivated to quit.
Withdrawal symptoms can vary by substance and severity. Our team provides clinical monitoring and therapeutic support during early recovery to help men remain safe, supported, and engaged in treatment.
