Lesson Overview

6.48 – Understanding the Link Between Substance Use and Medication Compliance: Mixing alcohol or recreational substances with prescriptions disrupts chemical balance and delays healing. Certain combinations amplify drowsiness or strain the liver dangerously. Others cancel medication benefits entirely, leading to relapse or complications. Honesty with doctors about any substance use protects your safety. Avoid judging yourself—focus on accurate reporting so they can adjust plans. Recovery strengthens when honesty replaces denial or secrecy. Support groups or therapy can address cravings that interfere with adherence. Choosing health means respecting how each substance interacts with treatment. Awareness prevents accidents and fosters long-term stability. Clarity and honesty remain the foundation of every sustainable recovery path.
