Question by callista t: How to find addiction treatment centers in Boerne, Texas that can handle cases of prescription drug addiction?

She buys a lot and when I asked her what she uses it for, she even cajoled me to try. I would like to find an addiction treatment center so I can find out more information about this kind of addiction and maybe then I can get someone to talk to her about her condition.
