 '''Polysubstance dependence''' is a medical condition characterized by the simultaneous addiction to two or more psychoactive substances. This condition is often associated with a range of physical and psychological problems, and requires comprehensive treatment.
 ==Definition==
 [[Polysubstance dependence]] is defined as a type of [[Substance dependence]] where an individual uses at least three different classes of substances indiscriminately and does not have a favorite substance that qualifies for dependence on its own. This is not to be confused with [[polydrug use]], which does not always include a dependence.
 ==Causes==
 The causes of polysubstance dependence are complex and multifaceted. They can include genetic predisposition, environmental factors, and psychological issues such as depression, anxiety, and other mental health disorders.
 ==Symptoms==
 The symptoms of polysubstance dependence can vary widely depending on the substances used and the individual's overall health. They can include physical symptoms such as withdrawal symptoms, tolerance, and health problems related to substance use, as well as psychological symptoms such as cravings, loss of control over use, and continued use despite negative consequences.
 ==Treatment==
 Treatment for polysubstance dependence often involves a combination of medication and therapy. Medications can help manage withdrawal symptoms and cravings, while therapy can help individuals understand and change their substance use behaviors. Treatment may also involve support groups and other community resources.
