  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Many drug overdose deaths in the United States have been caused by tranquilizers and by antidepressants; some researchers estimate approximately one-quarter of the total amount of drug overdoses are related to these types of prescription drugs.
  • At the start of a detoxification program, alcoholics are about twice as likely to have suffered a serious injury in the six months prior to detox as their counterparts who are detoxing for illicit drug use.
  • Individuals who become dependent to marijuana dont typically contact public or private treatment services because they are either unaware of their existence, do not consider themselves dependent or feel these services are not designed for their specific needs.
  • Being of similar structure, the opiate molecules occupy many of the same nerve-receptor sites and bring on the same analgesic effect as the body's natural painkillers.
  • Gay males who are methamphetamine users are particularly at risk of acquiring a sexually transmitted disease as a result of their methamphetamine use.

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 often necessary in the beginning stages of abstinence when the client may experience 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 supervised very carefully by medical professionals to minimize ant dangerous health complications. Hospital inpatient treatment is also delivered to individuals who desire a medication assisted withdrawal, as is the case with individuals who are addicted to opiates and wish to use this type of detox approach to manage the harsh withdrawal symptoms associated with heroin or other opiate withdrawal. This type of opiate detoxification is not considered full rehabilitation and these people will need further counseling and therapy to entirely recover from addiction.
