  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • A large body of evidence has concluded that an extremely high percentage of people who die from drug overdoses have a prior history of substance abuse problems.
  • According to government research, drug overdose death rates were reported to decline dramatically after the age of 54; additionally, after age 63, the male and female drug overdose death rates were about the same.
  • Because methadone detox can be an extremely debilitating and painful process, it should only be attempted in the context of a drug rehab program.
  • Many pharmacists in the United States have often dubbed methadone as the "scary pill", because sometimes people do not get the immediate pain relief that they want from this drug, so they take more than they should, which could potentially result in a fatal overdose.
  • Alcohol depresses body functions that play a key role in involuntary actions such as breathing and the gag reflex which prevents choking. A fatal dose of alcohol will eventually stop these functions.
