  • 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.
  • About 56% of acetaminophen overdoses occur when over-the counter acetaminophen is taken with prescription pain relievers like Vicodin which also contain acetaminophen.
  • Individuals who Ambien as a sleep aid can experience intense withdrawal symptoms when they suddenly cease using the drug after long-term use, although there are instances of individuals experiencing Ambien withdrawal after daily use for just 1 or 2 weeks.

Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which must be overseen by substance abuse professionals within a drug treatment program who realize how difficult and challenging methadone detox can be. Methadone detoxification is known to be far more severe in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and users frequently revert back to methadone to alleviate withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to relieve symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification should only be done under strict supervision at a drug rehabilitation center which has practical experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the individual can receive further recovery services to address all addiction issues.
