  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Crack cocaine is often abused in binges, taken repeatedly within a relatively short period of time at increasingly higher doses.
  • Individuals who use PCP may experience a "dissociative" feeling, meaning it distorts perceptions of sight and sound and produces feelings of detachment.
  • Good quality hashish is soft and pliable and becomes progressively harder and less potent over time, as its THC content oxidizes to other cannabinoids and as essential oils evaporate.
  • Consuming 250 milliliters of alcohol causes the body to expel 800 to 1,000 milliliters of water, causing the individual to lose four times as much liquid as is gained. This diuretic effect is one of the main factors which contributes to a hangover.
  • Heroin use during pregnancy can result in low birth weight, an important risk factor for a childs later development.

Detoxification

Detoxification is usually the initial step in getting off drugs. It makes it possible for a person to be in a supervised setting while they go through withdrawal symptoms for drugs and/or alcohol. There are diverse types of detoxification. Theyrange from drug-free to medically supervised. A widespread mistake that a lot of addicts make is to feel that detox is enough to kick their habit. This is almost never the case. All detox does is get somebody through the withdrawal when they stop using. It is always recommended that detox be followed up with some type of treatment plan to find out the root of why someone was using drugs in the first place.
