This article discusses the case study of Juan, a secondary teacher who faced drug addiction and back pain. It explores the heritability, neurochemical basis, and underlying neural circuitry involved in addiction, including the role of dopaminergic neuroadaptation, biological factors leading to addiction, and pharmacodynamics tolerance. The article emphasizes the importance of therapies and medical supervision for improved homeostatic mechanisms engagement and healthcare services.

Juan, a 49-year-old secondary school teacher, has been experiencing lower back pain and has been prescribed tramadol for pain management.
