  • A gastric lavage is a common treatment that is utilized in cases of a drug overdose. During this treatment process, the stomach is washed out in order to be able to remove any traces of the drug so that it cannot be absorbed into the system.
  • Ecstasy use is associated with overheating and dehydration which may cause the user to over-compensate by consuming large amounts of water while partying which can lead to water toxicity.
  • Due to the fact that marijuana is the most used illicit drug in the nation, States which report high prevalence rates for any illicit drug also have high prevalence rates for past month use of marijuana.
  • Drug detoxification in drug rehab does not on its own handle any the psychological, social, and behavioral issues that accompany drug or alcohol addiction, and therefore does not produce the lasting changes necessary for full recovery and rehabilitation.
