Narcotics have a high abuse potential and are closely regulated in a majority of the world. Narcotics are one of the many wonders of modern-day medicine, but unfortunately due to their misuse the dangers are ever more evident. Some of the most common side effects include constipation, vomiting/nausea, and drowsiness. The most serious complication is respiratory depression (usually due to overdose) that can lead to death. If Narcotics are used correctly, there is little chance of them being dangerous; when narcotics are misused the results can be fatal.

A traditional concern about narcotics use has been the risk of promoting addiction. As narcotic use continues over time, the body becomes accustomed to the drug and adjusts normal functions to accommodate to its presence.

Do people in narcotics anonymous believe in drinking alcohol?

As Narcotics Anonymous are really a group of wildly differing people, some do, while others do not. The one common attribute of people at Narcotics Anonymous is a desire to stop using narcotics and continue not using narcotics. The following is an opinion of one person, not of NA: Note that many people in NA are also in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Substituting one addition for another is not preferable. Also judgment is generally impaired while drinking alcohol, so overall it is not recommended. If it absolutely came down to drinking alcohol or taking narcotics, many might advise taking some alcohol to avoid taking narcotics. This should not be used as an excuse to drink alcohol.
