Oxycotin Drug Abuse

The abuse of oxycodone products in general has increased in recent years. OxyContin and heroin have similar effects; therefore, both drugs are attractive to the same abuser population. OxyContin is sometimes referred to as "poor man's heroin", despite the high price it commands at the street level. OxyContin is, however, relatively inexpensive for those covered by health insurance, since the insurance provider covers most costs associated with doctor visits and the prescription. Unfortunately, many OxyContin abusers whose health insurance will no longer pay for prescriptions and who cannot afford the high street-level prices are attracted to heroin. There are many different ways available for someone addicted to oxycodone products to detox from them including rapid detox and methadone maintenance programs.
