  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Ecstasy causes a release of large amounts of serotonin, while also inhibiting or blocking its synthesis, which leads to a considerable depletion of serotonin.
  • Ecstasy users who take repeated doses of the drug within a short time span can increase their risk of seizures.
  • In 2010, the average age of first time use of marijuana among Americans aged 12 to 49 was 18.4 years, significantly higher than the average age of marijuana initiates in 2002 (17.0 years).
  • Due to the rapid onset of central nervous system depression that commonly occurs as the result of a methadone overdose, it is not wise to encourage the person to vomit, as this could lead to them choking.
  • It is important for an observer of a drug overdose to question the patient about what drugs they have taken, as by the time they reach the hospital, they may have be unconscious, and therefore may be unable to communicate.
