  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Opioid-related drug overdose deaths have surpassed the rate of heroin and cocaine overdoses within the past several years in the U.S.
  • According to a current study by the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, codeine, Demerol, and morphine were the prescription drugs that have accounted for the majority of overdose deaths in the U.S. over the past five years.
  • Alcoholics tend to be more accident prone than drug users even after they quit drinking.
  • In the past there were very few milligrams of actual heroin found in a bag of the drug, as most of the bag was filled with additives like sugar, powdered milk, or quinine.
  • Ambien addiction may result if the user begins taking it improperly, which can include crushing the pill and swallowing it, crushing and snorting it, or melting it down for injection.

Hospital Inpatient Programs

Hospital inpatient drug treatment is carried out in a hospital or similar setting and is overseen by doctors and other medical staff. Hospital inpatient treatment is sometimes necessary in the beginning stages of abstinence when the person may encounter the onset of life threatening withdrawal symptoms, which is sometimes true when quitting alcohol as well as a category of prescription drugs known as benzodiazepines which should be monitored very carefully by medical professionals to minimize ant dangerous health complications. Hospital inpatient treatment is also administered to those who choose to undergo medication assisted withdrawal, as is the case with individuals who are addicted to opiates and wish to use this type of detoxification approach to manage the severe withdrawal symptoms associated with heroin or other opiate withdrawal. This type of opiate detox is not considered full rehabilitation and these individuals will require further counseling and therapy to entirely recover from addiction.
