  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • A survivor of a drug overdose is often consumed with guilt over putting their loved ones through this traumatic ordeal, and is often willing to seek drug treatment to avoid the possibility of another such occurrence in the future.
  • In 2007, hydrocodone such as that contained in Lortab was mentioned in 24,558 emergency room visits, 11,001 single exposures and 23 deaths according to The American Association of Poison Control Centers.
  • Individuals who use amphetamines often take other drugs as well, which may complicate their treatment.
  • Hashish users commonly have the same respiratory problems as cigarette smokers.
  • While a large percentage of people who have had a drug overdose have been reported to recover without experiencing any long term health effects, many of these cases have resulted in death.

Medicare Coverage

Drug addiction and alcoholism affects many older Americans and seniors, and this issue is projected to only worsen in the coming years. Seniors who are covered through the Medicare program, an insurance program funded through the federal government for Americans in this age bracket, can use their benefits to receive treatment services for substance abuse at a wide variety of drug and alcohol treatment programs around the country. Medicare covers both inpatient and outpatient treatment facilities, and seniors who wish to receive help can consult with their primary care physician to choose a rehab program covered by Medicare which would be suitable for them.
