  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • In animal studies involving cocaine, if the animal survives after a heavy dose of cocaine it will return to the task of obtaining more of the drug.
  • A number of fatal fentanyl overdoses have been caused by time-release fentanyl patches which were prescribed to legitimate users for pain; a defect caused the patch to malfunction causing an excessive amount of the drug to leak and become absorbed by patients, resulting in life-threatening side effects and death in some cases.
  • If used in extremely high doses, crystal meth can increase heart rate, body temperature can rise to very dangerous levels, and the user can become paranoid, agitated and display very bizarre and risky behavior.
  • In Tazewell County, Virginia, over 150 people had been charged with felonies associated with OxyContin abuse in 2000.
  • For opiate addicted individuals, detox by itself is not treatment. Most opiate addicts will eventually resume taking them unless they get further help.

Detoxification

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