  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Heroin abusers often combine it with other drugs, such cocaine or methamphetamine with heroin (known as speedballing), or use alcohol, marijuana, or tranquilizers to enhance the high and blunt effects of withdrawal.
  • Amphetamines, like adrenaline, produce effects in the central nervous system and brain but also the heart, lungs, and many other organs.
  • Early emergency treatment can help to limit the long term health consequences that are so often related to a drug overdose.
  • Because of the depression of the central nervous system as a result of heroin use, mental functioning can become clouded while high on the drug.
  • A 2009 survey found that over 70% of Americans who abused prescription pain relievers got them from friends or relatives.

Medicare Coverage

Drug addiction and alcoholism affects many older Americans and seniors, and this problem is projected to only worsen in the coming years. Seniors who are covered by Medicare, an insurance plan funded through the federal government for Americans in this age bracket, can use their benefits to receive vital treatment services for addiction at a variety of drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers around the country. Medicare covers both inpatient and outpatient treatment facilities, and seniors who are in need of treatment can consult with their primary care physician to choose a rehab program covered by Medicare which would fit his or her particular needs.
