    Chapter 4: Drug Abuse, Relapse and Freedom from Addiction

    • Tolerance, Dependence, Addiction: What's the Difference? Tolerance happens when a person no longer responds to a drug in the way they did at first. So it takes a higher dose of the drug to achieve the same effect as when the person first used it.

    • When people use the term “dependence,” they are usually referring to a physical dependence on a substance. Dependence is characterized by the symptoms of tolerance and withdrawal.

    • One important thing to monitor is your drug tolerance. Of course, this is not the same thing as drug dependence, but the two can become related if tolerance is left unchecked.
