  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Due to the rapid onset of central nervous system depression that commonly occurs as the result of a methadone overdose, it is not wise to encourage the person to vomit, as this could lead to them choking.
  • Around 700,000 Americans receive alcoholism treatment on any given day.
  • GHB is a popular drug of choice among partiers and as a "club drug", and is used most commonly among teenagers and young adults because of its euphoric and sedating effects.
  • Inhalant abuse, specifically abuse of trichloroethylene which can be found in spot removers and degreasers, can cause cirrhosis of the liver and hearing and liver damage.
  • Researchers have reported that in order for a person to consume enough marijuana to experience a fatal overdose, they would have to consume almost 40,000 times the amount of THC (the active ingredient in marijuana) required to intoxicate them. For example, if it took an individual 10 hits to become intoxicated, it would take 400,000 hits of marijuana to produce a fatal overdose.
