Solpadol: Addiction Signs, Side Effects, & Treatment

Solpadol: Addiction Signs, Side Effects, & Treatment

If you wonder what Solpadol is used for, you have come to the right place. Solpadol is grouped with other analgesics or painkillers and is used to treat intense pain. Paracetamol, which is a pain reliever and a fever reducer, and codeine, a narcotic analgesic, make up the combination found in Solpadol. The two drugs are made into one and can produce a robust high which commonly causes addiction.

What Causes Solpadol Addiction?

Low-dose Solpadol can be purchased over the counter, or stronger doses that can be prescribed to patients by doctors, are the only acceptable ways of obtaining the drug. However, many will sell Solpadeine pills on the street or give them to family members or friends. Doctors will prescribe the medicine to treat severe pain due to chronic injury or damage that is not likely to be treated. Therefore, the pain is mellowed with such a strong drug.

Many individuals will become addicted to the high or numbing sensations that Solpadol produces. Plus, if a person is experiencing extreme pain, the drug effectively reduces or relieves affliction. Solpadol is not meant to be consumed if mixed with morphine or similar opioids. Addiction is more likely to occur and lead to overdose if combined with other substances.

Signs of Solpadol Addiction

If a person continues to take Solpadol, despite feeling the side effects like irregular bowel functioning or vomiting, then there is a good chance the person is addicted. Taking the drug after the prescribed duration leads to misuse and abuse of the substance. If a friend or loved one is displaying a sudden change in behavior or is being secretive, or attempting to hide the pills, then these are signs of physical dependence.

A person should highly consider seeking a medically monitored detox program so the withdrawal symptoms can be completed effectively and safely. Slurred speech patterns, excessive drowsiness, and a short attention span are additional signs and behaviors of addiction. Seeking help from professionals can avoid overdose or long-term health complications.

Effects of Solpadol

In addition to the side effects mentioned, Solpadol has increasing health risks. Dilated pupils and severe drowsiness are not the only effects that are cause for concern. Other side effects that follow substance abuse include:

  • Cramping
  • Seizures
  • Dizziness
  • Dry mouth
  • Constipation
  • Muscle damage
  • Chronic depression
  • Low blood pressure
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Liver or kidney damage
  • Problems containing memories

Solpadol withdrawal symptoms include excessive yawning, uncontrollable sweating, irregular heartbeat, and elevated blood pressure. Solpadol addiction is often not considered to be life-threatening, but overdose, coma, or death is possible if the drug is abused for a long duration or if a high dose is consumed in one sitting.
