Quitting smoking does more than improve physical health—it may also increase the chances of recovery from other substance use disorders.

A recent NIH study found that adults with a history of alcohol or drug addiction who also quit to***co were significantly more likely to achieve sustained remission. The findings highlight the importance of addressing all addictions together rather than in isolation.

At Foundry Steamboat, we support clients in quitting to***co while undergoing treatment for substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders. Our team provides education, guidance, and access to evidence-based strategies that make recovery more achievable.

New research links polysubstance use to heart problems.

New research shows problematic cardiac changes in people with both co***ne and alcohol use disorders. The findings raise concerns about the effects of co***ne and alcohol use on the heart, even after treatment and abstinence.

It has long been known that using stimulants like co***ne and amphetamines poses heart risks, even the risk of heart attack or death. Problematic alcohol use also has different but overlapping risks to the heart and other organs, like the liver. This new research suggests that people being treated for multiple substance use disorder (polysubstance use disorder) should have a medical evaluation to check for cardiac problems.

NRT Behavioral Health residential treatment programs have the medical expertise to identify comorbidities and recommend specialized care as part of a comprehensive treatment approach.
