  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Children and young adults are disproportionately involved in alcohol-related automobile accidents, the leading cause of death among Americans 15 to 24 years old.
  • Even after a week of having smoked hashish, only 60-70% of the THC has left the body because it is stored in the body fat.
  • Drinking alcohol in excess can result in risky sexual behaviors, including unprotected sex, sex with multiple partners, and increased risk of sexual assault. These behaviors can result in unintended pregnancy or sexually transmitted diseases.
  • Inhalant abuse may result in a rapid high that can mimic alcohol intoxication; which is why individuals that "huff" should not operate a vehicle.
  • Although cocaine overdose is not common, it has been known to occur and can be fatal.

Detoxification

Detoxification is usually the 1st step in getting off drugs. It allows a particular person to be in a supervised setting while they go through withdrawal symptoms for drugs and/or alcohol. There are different types of detoxification. Theyrange from drug-free to medically supervised. A typical mistake that a lot of addicts make is to assume that detox is enough to kick their habit. This is seldom the case. All detox does is get a person through the withdrawal when they stop using. It is at all times recommended that detox be followed up with some type of treatment plan to discover the root of why a person was using drugs in the first place.
