  • 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.
  • Crack is five to six times more potent than powder cocaine which is typically purchased on the street.
  • 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.
  • Birth control pills slow down the rate at which the body eliminates alcohol.
  • An overdose from amphetamines is generally characterized by symptoms such as a rapid heartbeat, muscle cramps, seizures, psychosis, paranoia, and confusion, loss of motor control movement, lack of consciousness, cardiac arrest, and death.

Adolescents (18 and under)

It is a disturbing fact that many adolescents in the United States become introduced to drugs and alcohol at a very young age, and some even become addicted and dependent to drugs and/or alcohol. For adolescents who do become addicted and dependent to drugs and alcohol, parents must be willing to do whatever it takes to help their child before it is too late. Any indication that drugs or alcohol are in the picture should be addressed right away, otherwise, addiction will lead down a path of total destruction for the adolescent as well as for the family. There are drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities for adolescents offered in every state, many of which cater only to adolescents and have treatment professionals and counselors on hand that are trained specifically in dealing with this age group.
