  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Overdose deaths can be intentional or unintentional, and they can result from both licit and illicit drug abuse. Drugs commonly implicated in overdose deaths are alcohol, psychoactive medications, analgesics, illicit drugs such as cocaine and heroin, and multiple drugs taken concomitantly.
  • According to the latest government statistics, the number of methadone overdose deaths throughout the U.S. has quadrupled over the last decade.
  • In April 2006, there was one domestic fentanyl lab discovered by authorities in a small town in California which was producing counterfeit 80-mg Fentanyl tablets as well as bulk fentanyl and other drugs.
  • Because methadone detox can be an extremely debilitating and painful process, it should only be attempted in the context of a drug rehab program.
  • In an emergency room setting individuals will be given oxygen as needed to and may be administered a common antidote for Vicodin overdose known as naloxone; additional action may need to be taken because of the acetaminophen contained in the drug.

Payment Assistance (based on Facility)

Many drug and alcohol treatment programs in the United States provide payment assistance to men and women suffering with drug or alcohol addiction and want to get help. The person in need of treatment can choose a treatment facility which ideally fits their situation, meaning the treatment plan and design of the program would offer them the best results. The addicted individual can then talk to one of the treatment professionals at the drug rehab facility to go over what kind of payment assistance options are available or that they qualify for. The financial department in most drug treatment programs are more than willing to work with potential clients to get them started by offering payment assistance, and if this is unavailable, treatment professionals will often work with the person to find an equivalent or comparable rehabilitation facility which is more affordable or that can provide workable financing options so that they can get the rehabilitation they so desperately need.
