Cocaine stimulates the brain by imitating the actions of chemicals produced by he brain and sends pleasure signals to the brain's reward centre. It produces similar effects to adrenaline such as increased breathing rate, blood pressure and heart rate. If the stimulation reaches too high a level, other feelings can be produced such as rage, hallucinations, paranoia and panic. On from there, there can even be a progression to potentially fatal strokes and seizures.
Cocaine addiction treatment can be seen in various guises. They are based on a range of factors based on the severity of the symptoms and how long they have been present. The recovery rate and amount of damage done also play a part.
The symptoms which are most prevalent are depression, loss of energy, drug cravings, hyperventilation, sweating, irritability, fearfulness, nausea, increased appetite, shaking and a need for or difficulty in sleeping. These symptoms can actually last for several weeks and they don't always stop when cocaine is no longer being taken.
Medical research is continually and aggressively being undertaken but there is still no drug on the market to treat drug addiction. The most promising of those currently being looked into is Selegiline. However, it has not as yet managed to obtain an appropriate method of administration. Another drug known as Disulfiram which is on the market as it used for treatment for alcoholism is being tested for treatment of drugs and has shown some promise during trials.
Treatment programmes are often staffed by counsellors, nurses and physicians with a good heart and an intention to help the user. The programs with which they work are designed to identify the intensity of the addiction and based on this, they offer treatment techniques which have been painstakingly researched. The best treatment option for that particular patient is administered to offer the best chance for success.
