  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Because of its prolonged extended action, abuse of OxyContin can cause serious side effects when injected as it goes directly into the bloodstream.
  • During 2009 over 1 million Americans used Ecstasy for the first time, which is a significant increase from the 894,000 first-time users reported in 2008.
  • When an individual has taken an overdose of an opiate drug, the pupils in their eyes will usually contract and they will display extreme lethargy or possibly lapse into a coma.
  • As with all opiate drugs, there is a high potential for abuse with fentanyl and so it is a Schedule II narcotic drug which is only available by prescription.
  • Aside from serotonin, Ecstasy also affects another chemical in the brain known as norepinephrine which may cause an increase in heart rate and blood pressure.

Other Language Programs

Those who speak other languages, other than English that is, should receive substance abuse treatment which is on par with English speakers. Speakers of other languages should not feel that their treatment opportunities are limited or inferior because they don't speak English. There are many substance abuse rehabilitation facilities available which cater to those who speak foreign languages, all of which provide a selection of programs to choose from. For example, some drug treatment facilities which provide services for individuals who speak other languages are only short term programs, but there are more long term options available. Foreign language speakers can seek the advice from an addiction professional in their area to choose a drug rehabilitation facility which would be suitable to their needs.
