A member asked:

What can i do if i'm addicted to morphine after a few days?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unsure what you mean: Anyone who is prescribed any opioid pain medication will become physically dependent within a few days - this is NOT addiction. Addiction requires strong cravings for the drug, taking the drug for the wrong reasons, being unable to stop and having the drug take over your life. If it is physical dependency, you can be easily tapered or just stop and symptoms will go away soon. Talk to your doctor.
