Question

Habituation is the final stage of drug addiction.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

• Habituation is the term used to refer to psychological dependence on a drug.
• Some drugs of abuse are highly rewarding because of their influence on reinforcing neurobiological processes, but they do not necessarily result in "tissue" related withdrawal symptoms.
• Cessation of such drugs may lead primarily to subjective craving due to previous drug conditioning and craving may be more readily evoked or deeply conditioned among some persons than others ("addictive personalities"). Hence, Habituation is not the final stage of drug addiction.

So, the correct answer is 'False'.
