HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
You may want to consider having a frank talk with her about the addiction and the complications.
You can discuss any changes that you may have noticed in the way she behaves or interacts with others.
If you do not feel comfortable doing this on your own then you can involve other friends or family members or her doctor.
I hope this helps
