Addictive diseases belong to the group of the most frequent diseases nowadays. Massive research stresses their broad prevalence in the general population, which in some communities reaches epidemic proportions. Alcoholism is the third most common disease, next to cardiovascular and malignant diseases. Drug and tobacco abuse, particularly combined use of more than one substance, represent an increasing problem, especially among the young population. The so-called synthetic drugs, artificially manufactured substances with pharmacological properties which are causing specific effects similar to natural drugs are increasingly used. Addictive diseases directly or indirectly affect all phases of a life cycle of individuals and their families, preventing their functioning in the spheres of personal, family, professional and social life. Society as a whole suffers numerous consequences due to the substance abuse or dependence.
