  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Ending methadone treatment is much more difficult than other opiates due to the severity of the related withdrawal symptoms.
  • In 2010 the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration stated that 33 percent of drivers involved in fatal car crashes were under the influence of drugs, including prescription drugs.
  • Individuals who take PCP commonly see images, hear sounds, and feel sensations that seem real but are not.
  • Inhalant abuse may result in a rapid high that can mimic alcohol intoxication; which is why individuals that "huff" should not operate a vehicle.
  • Individuals who do not meet the criteria for alcohol dependence or abuse, but who are drinking at levels that place them at risk for increased problems, can be helped through screening and brief intervention.

Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which must be overseen by drug addiction professionals within a drug rehab program who realize how challenging and difficult methadone detoxification can be. Methadone detoxification is known to be far more severe in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and individuals often revert back to methadone to relieve withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to alleviate symptoms. This is why methadone detox must only be done under strict supervision at a drug rehab facility which has practical experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the individual can receive further treatment services to deal with all addiction issues.
