It is characterized by behaviors that include one or more of the following: impaired control over drug use; compulsive use; continued use despite harm; and/or craving. Most patients with chronic pain who use long-term opioids/narcotics are able to take medications on a scheduled basis as prescribed, do not seek other drugs when their pain is controlled, and experience improvement in their quality of life as the result of opioid therapy. Therefore, they are NOT addicted. Physical dependence is NOT the same as addiction.
