  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • About 25% of past-year illicit drug initiates in 2010 said their first drug was some form of psychotherapeutic (26.2 percent, including 17.3 percent with pain relievers, 4.6 percent with tranquilizers, 2.5 percent with stimulants, and 1.9 percent with sedatives).
  • An overdose from stimulants such as amphetamines or cocaine is generally characterized by symptoms such as a rapid heartbeat, muscle cramps, seizures, psychosis, paranoia, and confusion, loss of motor control movement, vomiting, lack of consciousness, cardiac arrest, and death.
  • Impaired parental monitoring because of alcohol is associated with children of alcoholics being associated with a peer group that supports alcohol and drug use behavior.
  • Individuals should not abuse anabolic steroids because of the physical damage that can occur, especially when they taking these drugs in large doses over a long period of time.
  • 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.
