Answer 2

Supervised medication when "treating drug addicts" must work to "prevent withdrawal symptoms and cravings".

Step-by-step explanation:

• Withdrawal symptoms and cravings are common when treating drug addicts, withdrawal symptoms lead to the drug addict wanting to take drugs after a few days.

• The withdrawal symptoms basically reduce the effect of the drugs over time which makes the drug addict want and crave for more drugs.

• Supervised medication of drug addicts must help the drug addicts to completely do away with such cravings .
