  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • A record breaking drug seizure was made in 2008 by the DEA of 262 tons of hashish, pointing to the fact that the drug is very much in demand.
  • About five percent of people in the U.S. who abuse prescription pain relievers report getting them from a drug dealer or on the Internet.
  • Substance abuse experts in the United States suspect that the rise in meth-related drug overdose deaths are due to fluctuations in the drug's purity levels.
  • Although heroin withdrawal is considered less dangerous than alcohol or barbiturate withdrawal, sudden withdrawal by chronic and long term heroin users who are in poor health can be fatal.
  • Hashish use results in escalated dopamine levels in the brain, which creates the good feelings or the high associated with its use. An user may feel the urge to use hashish consistently to re-create that experience.

Detoxification

Detoxification is commonly the first step in getting off drugs. It permits a person to be in a supervised environment while they go through withdrawal symptoms for drugs and/or alcohol. There are different types of detoxification. Theyvary from drug-free to medically supervised. A widespread mistake that quite a few addicts make is to feel that detox is enough to kick their habit. This is almost never the case. All detox does is get someone through the withdrawal when they stop using. It is usually recommended that detox be followed up with some type of treatment plan to uncover the root of why somebody was using drugs in the first place.
