  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Heroin users who inject the drug put themselves at risks of serious consequences including contracting human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B and C, and other blood-borne viruses.
  • Many complications of heroin addiction are related to the unsanitary administration of the drug. Others are due to the inherent properties of the drug, overdose, or intoxicated behavior accompanying drug use.
  • The main cause of overdose death that results from opiates is related to depressed breathing, which can potentially lead to unconsciousness and subsequent death.
  • Individuals with breathing problems, glaucoma, kidney or liver disease, suicidal thoughts, or addiction to drugs or alcohol should not take Ativan as it can complicate and worsen these conditions.
  • Adolescents who drink alcohol are more likely to have unwanted, unplanned, and unprotected sexual activity and physical and sexual assault.

Specialized in Hiv/Aids Patients

It is not unusual for someone with HIV/AIDS to end up in a substance abuse treatment program in search of help for serious addiction issues. Sometimes people who abuse drugs and alcohol are predisposed to such diseases due to certain circumstances which afflict the drug culture such as sharing dirty syringes to inject drugs or becoming involved in risky sexual behavior because of lowered sexual inhibitions caused by drug use. Persons with HIV/AIDS should have effective rehabilitation just like any otherwise healthy addicted person. Drug and alcohol treatment programs that accept and cater to persons with HIV/AIDS offer specialized care to address any health issues that may come up in the course of treatment. This way, any physical barriers to rehabilitation are resolved so that they can conquer their addiction once and for all.
