  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • The single most common cause of a heroin overdose is from the user combining heroin with alcohol or some other type of central nervous system depressant.
  • Hashish users who use the drug in large quantities can experience exacerbation of pre-existing cardiovascular disease, as cannabis use significantly raises the heart rate.
  • Waking up in an emergency room after being treated for a potentially fatal drug overdose can often be the bottom that many addicted individuals need to hit before they are willing to fully commit to a drug rehab program so that they can finally be free from their addiction.
  • For residential or outpatient drug rehabs, participation for less than 90 days produces less than desirable results and is proven to be ineffective for treating long-term addictions.
  • When an individual is experiencing a drug overdose, observers should stay with the individual and help them to remain calm by moving them to a quiet area; if the individual suffering from a drug overdose is unconscious, they should be placed in a recovery position while emergency medical help is summoned.
