  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • The best possible way to be able to avoid a potentially fatal drug overdose is for the person who is struggling with a substance abuse problem to be admitted to a quality drug rehab program that has a history of a high success rate.
  • Heroin users will ultimately become tolerant to the drug over time and after repeated use, and often find themselves needing increasingly larger doses of the drug to achieve the same intensity or effect they experienced when they first began using heroin.
  • It is difficult to determine the amount of cocaine that could cause an overdose, as this will vary from person to person depending on a variety of factors, which can include the user's physical condition.
  • A study conducted at publicly funded HIV testing sites in California concluded that HIV-positive gay males may be more likely than HIV-negative gay males to use methamphetamine, and some were likely to use it during sex.
  • The Center for Disease Control (CDC) is currently examining the prescription histories of individuals who have died from prescription drug overdoses in hopes of identifying markers that are indicative of people at risk of fatal overdoses; this information can be used to enhance the effectiveness of prescription monitoring programs nationwide.

Specialized in Hiv/Aids Patients

It is not unusual for someone with HIV/AIDS to end up in an addiction treatment center in search of help for severe addiction problems. Sometimes people who abuse drugs and alcohol are predisposed to such diseases because of certain circumstances which afflict the drug culture such as sharing dirty needles 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 individual. Drug and alcohol rehabilitation 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 recovery are alleviated so that they can overcome their addiction and maintain a drug-free lifestyle.
