  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Although heroin withdrawal is considered less dangerous than alcohol or barbiturate withdrawal, sudden withdrawal by chronic and long term heroin users who are in poor health can be fatal.
  • Dexedrine withdrawal often causes severe depression and dysphoria, which is basically the opposite of the drugs effects.
  • Birth control pills and other estrogen-containing medication can slow down the rate at which alcohol is eliminated from a womans body.
  • Hispanics and Blacks are less likely to have health insurance coverage, and are more likely to be below the poverty level than Whites which may decrease their access to alcohol addiction treatment.
  • Individuals who give birth to methadone addicted babies are encouraged to breast feed, since methadone is also present in breast milk which will help ease their infants withdrawal symptoms.

Gays and Lesbians can sometimes have unique treatment needs when receiving substance abuse rehabilitation. A specialized curriculum and treatment atmosphere which is conducive to the needs of gays and lesbians is offered at certain drug treatment facilities around the country which understand the unique needs and challenges which gays and lesbians will encounter during recovery. Gay and lesbians can achieve full rehabilitation and recovery just like any other person in treatment, although it can be helpful for gays and lesbians to be in a supportive environment which doesn't judge them or segregate them due to their sexual preference.
