  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Researchers have reported that in order for a person to consume enough marijuana to experience a fatal overdose, they would have to consume almost 40,000 times the amount of THC (the active ingredient in marijuana) required to intoxicate them. For example, if it took an individual 10 hits to become intoxicated, it would take 400,000 hits of marijuana to produce a fatal overdose.
  • Crystal meth is used as a recreational drug, as it is known to enhance the senses and cause an euphoric high.
  • Heroin injection is a more efficient means of administering the drug which allows for more profound effects.
  • When an individual has taken an overdose of an opiate drug, the pupils in their eyes will usually contract and they will display extreme lethargy or possibly lapse into a coma.
  • As of 2008 U.S. retail prices of Ecstasy were 10 to 15 dollars per tablet, or from 4 to 6 dollars per tablet if bought in batches.

Detoxification

Detoxification is generally the very first step in getting off drugs. It makes it possible for an individual to be in a supervised setting while they go through withdrawal symptoms for drugs and/or alcohol. There are diverse types of detoxification. Theyvary from drug-free to medically supervised. A typical mistake that a lot of addicts make is to believe that detox is enough to kick their habit. This is hardly ever the case. All detox does is get a person through the withdrawal when they stop using. It is at all times recommended that detox be followed up with some type of treatment plan to learn the root of why an individual was using drugs in the first place.
