Increased tolerance refers to a physiological adaptation where a person needs to consume larger amounts of a substance to achieve the same effects previously experienced with smaller quantities. This change does not necessarily indicate addiction, as tolerance can occur with various substances, including medications and common stimulants like caffeine. Understanding tolerance is important for discussions around addiction and recovery, as it helps differentiate between physiological changes and the criteria of addiction itself.
