At Light Wellness, our addiction specialists work daily with individuals and families affected by opioid use disorders. Recognizing the signs early can lead to faster treatment and better outcomes.

Physical signs may include constricted pupils, drowsiness, slurred speech, weight loss, and frequent flu-like symptoms.
