Your Mom should talk to her Dr about her addiction to them, i’m sure he can help you come up with a plan to help her.

When an abuser takes an opiate, the drug enters the brain through the bloodstream, This creates a rush of happiness and euphoria. This high is so unlike any naturally occurring rush of dopamine or endorphins that the only way a person can experience it again is by using the drug again.
