Final answer:
All the drugs listed, morphine, heroin, amphetamine, and methadone, can be found in blood or urine after use. Heroin is quickly metabolized to other substances, making it less likely to be directly detected, but its metabolites can still indicate use.The correct answer is option D.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question deals with the detection of certain drugs in blood or urine. Among the options provided: morphine, heroin, amphetamine, and methadone, all can be found in blood or urine following use. Therefore, each substance can be detected during a drug screening test, such as those conducted by medical professionals or law enforcement agencies.
Heroin, however, is quickly metabolized into morphine and other metabolites, so the parent drug may not be directly detectable shortly after use, but its metabolites can indicate heroin use.
Regarding the other part of the inquiry:
- Possible withdrawal symptoms associated with physical dependence on a psychoactive drug can include nausea, agitation, insomnia, depression, and drug cravings, among others.
- A person with a heroin addiction might be prescribed the psychoactive drug methadone to assist in the treatment of addiction and help facilitate a gradual withdrawal from opioids without the severe side effects of abstinence.
Morphine is obtained from the opium poppy and is used to relieve pain. Heroin is derived from morphine and is highly addictive.The correct answer is option D.
