  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • In the state of Washington, when an individual dies of a drug overdose from an illegal drug, the individual who has supplied the drug has committed "controlled-substance homicide," according to a law that was passed during 1987.
  • Treatment for a drug overdose is always dependent on knowing which type of drug has been used; therefore, it is critical that a person who witnesses a drug overdose bring any pills or bottles that may help the emergency medical team to determine the appropriate form of treatment.
  • Common Dexedrine withdrawal symptoms are extreme fatigue and increased appetite.
  • Dilaudid is derived from the opiate narcotic drug morphine, a powerful pain killer that has proven to be useful in the relief of pain but that also has a high potential for abuse and addiction.
  • In relation to a drug overdose, any information that can be provided concerning the amount of the substance that was ingested, what time it was taken, and any information regarding the patient's medical history can be a great help to the medical staff in helping them to determine the most effective course of treatment.

Rehabilitation from drug or alcohol addiction is a process that can be challenging and in manyways intimidating. This is why some women seeking recovery feel more comfortable in rehab facilities created specifically for women. Women who are addicted to drugs or alcohol oftenhave personal issues that are very different than their male counter parts. In a drug rehabilitation facility where all the clients are women, the recovering addict will feel more at ease and will be able to share her personal issues that led to her drug abuse and addiction problems. Statistics show that up to seventy percent of women with addiction problems report having some type of sexual or physical abuse in their past. These sensitive issues are easier to work through in the company of other women without fear of judgment or retaliation.
