Morphine Addition: From
Prescription to Abuse
 The opioid analgesic drug induces the sensations of euphoria and relaxation
and for that reason has been used to treat severe pain. Therefore the very
same phenomenon can create a dependency that is known as addiction,
even with the prescription drug. That is the person can get immune to the
morphine and with the continuous use, can crave for more to satisfy the
body.
 It can compel the patient to strive for more and more by developing
additional patterns on the brain with the overdose of the drug. These
properties of the morphine has led to the illicit trade of the drug among the
drug user. Hence other than the distribution of morphine under legal brand
names Avinza, MS Contin, Kadian and Oramorph morphine is also
distributed illegally by street names Morf, Mister Blue, Dreamer, First Line,
God's Drug, MS, Morpho, Emsel and Unkie.
