  • A blackout is an amnesia-like period that is often caused by excessive alcohol consumption, whereby the individual seems to be functioning normally, but later has no memory of what occurred.
  • Heroin was first synthesized in the mid 1800s and was used liberally in medicine in the early 1900s, at which time physicians were unaware of its potential for addiction.
  • 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.
  • In order to combat the dramatic increase in accidental drug overdose deaths throughout the U.S., the Center for Disease Control (CDC) is currently recommending tighter regulations, improving awareness through drug education, and supporting professional drug treatment for drug dependence.
