  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Inhalant abuse may result in a variety of mind-altering effects; some of which can be irreversible.
  • Many accidental drug overdoses are related to the misuse of over-the-counter medications, that are commonly used as pain relievers and cold remedies.
  • Fatalities have been reported in individuals that have overdosed with the combination of just one single Valium pill and alcohol.
  • A cancer patient can take a dose of OxyContin that they have been taking on a regular basis which could be fatal in a person never exposed to OxyContin or another opioid.
  • Educating physicians who prescribe prescription drugs regarding prescription drug abuse is critically important, because even brief interventions by physicians have proven effective in reducing or eliminating prescription drug abuse in individuals who are not yet addicted to them.

Detoxification

Detoxification is generally the initial step in getting off drugs. It enables an individual to be in a supervised environment while they go through withdrawal symptoms for drugs and/or alcohol. There are different types of detoxification. Theyrange from drug-free to medically supervised. A common mistake that quite a few addicts make is to feel that detox is enough to kick their habit. This is hardly ever the case. All detox does is get an individual through the withdrawal when they stop using. It is always recommended that detox be followed up with some type of treatment plan to uncover the root of why an individual was using drugs in the first place.
