Comorbid Drug Abuse and Mental Illness

When two disorders or illnesses occur simultaneously in the same person, they are comorbid. Surveys show that drug abuse and other mental illnesses are often comorbid. Six out of ten people with a substance abuse disorder may also suffer from another form of mental illness. The high prevalence of comorbidities does not mean that one condition causes the other, even if one appears first. Drug abuse can cause a mental illness. Mental illness can lead to drug abuse. Common risk factors cause drug abuse and mental disorders.

A bio-implant is a biomaterial surgically implanted to replace damaged tissue. Common areas of application include orthopedic re-constructive prosthesis, cardiac prostheses, the skin and the cornea. A breast implant alters the size and shape of the breasts. There are two primary types of breast implants: saline-filled and silicone-gel-filled implants. Saline implants have a silicone elastomer shell filled with sterile saline liquid. Silicone gel implants have a silicone shell filled with a viscous silicone gel. Dental implants are a kind of implant that exist both inside and outside the body. An oral surgeon embeds the implant in the bone of the mandible or maxilla and the top of the implant is visible from within the mouth.
