  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • According to a current study by the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, codeine, Demerol, and morphine were the prescription drugs that have accounted for the majority of overdose deaths in the U.S. over the past five years.
  • Drugs that are commonly classified as depressants include opiates, alcohol, and benzodiazepines; a depressant overdose is most often characterized by slow or shallow breathing, blue lips, cold or clammy skin, slow or faint pulse, snoring or gurgling noises and unresponsiveness.
  • "Crack lung" symptoms can manifest as fever, cough, difficulty breathing and severe chest pain which typically occur within two days of having smoked crack heavily.
  • Approximately two-thirds of Americans in treatment for opiate abuse cite that they were physically or sexually abused as children.
  • Drug overdose deaths are medico-legal cases investigated by medical examiners or coroners. Although medical examiner charts are recognized as a key source of information for monitoring such deaths, the accuracy of official statistics on drug mortality remains uncertain.

Detoxification

Detoxification is typically the very first step in getting off drugs. It permits an individual to be in a supervised environment 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 frequent mistake that a lot of addicts make is to feel that detox is sufficient to kick their habit. This is almost never the case. All detox does is get a person through the withdrawal when they stop using. It is always recommended that detox be followed up with some type of treatment plan to discover the root of why an individual was using drugs in the first place.
