    Study Notes

    Understanding Substance Use Disorder, its Substances, and Treatments

    • Substance use disorder is a pathological use of a substance that impairs control, causes social impairment, and risky use.
    • Addiction is a chronic medical condition with roots in environment, neurotransmission, genetics, and life experiences.
    • Intoxication is the process of using a substance to excess, while tolerance is when a person no longer responds to the drug in the way they used to.
    • Withdrawal occurs when a person stops using a substance, and the substances that lead to use disorders include alcohol, caffeine, cannabis, hallucinogens, inhalants, opioids, sedative-hypnotics, stimulants, tobacco, and process addiction like gambling.
    • Alcohol is a sedative that creates an initial feeling of euphoria, and its intoxication and withdrawal can cause several systemic effects, such as peripheral neuropathy, alcoholic hepatitis, and cirrhosis of the liver.
    • Cannabis is the most widely used illegal drug in the world and can cause psychological dependence.
    • Hallucinogens can cause a profound disturbance in reality, while inhalants can result in intoxication and withdrawal.
    • Opioids like heroin and prescription drugs can be treated with pharmacologic treatment, such as methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone.
    • The use of drugs to self-medicate if mental or physical illness is present is a risk factor for substance use disorder, along with genetics, poverty, lack of parental involvement, poor social skills, availability of drugs at school, experimentation, poor academic performance, and a home environment that promotes substance abuse.
    • The neurobiological process that occurs in the brain and neurotransmitters involved with substance use include altered amygdalar, hippocampal, basal ganglia, and cerebellar volume.
    • Withdrawal symptoms include shakes or jitters, psychotic and perceptual symptoms, withdrawal seizures, and alcohol withdrawal delirium or delirium tremens, which is a medical emergency.
    • Treatments for substance use disorder include cognitive-behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and screening tools such as SBIRT, AUDIT, CAGE, CAGE-AID, and T-ACE.
