Here's some of what you can expect if you abuse prescription opioid analgesics.
- Abuse can cause dizziness, lightheadedness, feeling faint, inability to urinate, itching, nausea and vomiting.
- You could overdose and pass out, and breathing could become very difficult or even stop. And you could die. This can happen the very first time you abuse a prescription opioid analgesic.
- It is a crime to give someone else a prescription opioid analgesic. If they die, you could be charged with murder.
