  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • During the 1960s PCP was widely abused until users became unhappy with the long delay between taking the drug and feeling its effects, and with the unpredictable and often violent behavior which often occurred with its use.
  • Crystal meth users who inject the drug put themselves at risk of contracting HIV (human immunodeficiency virus), hepatitis B and C, and other blood-borne viruses through shared needles.
  • Even in addicts who have used heroin for many years have been reported to overdose when they use too much of the drug or when they relapse after a period of abstinence.
  • Alcohol is an irritant to the stomach, and it is common for someone who drinks in excess to vomit putting the person in danger of choking on their own vomit. This can cause death by asphyxiation in a person who is not conscious because of intoxication.
  • According to the latest government statistics, the number of methadone overdose deaths throughout the U.S. has quadrupled over the last decade.

Specialized in Hiv/Aids Patients

It is not unusual for persons with HIV/AIDS to end up in a substance abuse rehab program in search of help for severe addiction issues. Often people who abuse drugs and alcohol are predisposed to such diseases because of certain circumstances which afflict the drug culture such as sharing dirty needles to inject drugs or participating in risky sexual behavior because of lowered sexual inhibitions caused by drug use. Persons with HIV/AIDS deserve effective rehabilitation just like any otherwise healthy addicted person. Substance abuse rehab facilities that accept and cater to persons with HIV/AIDS offer specialized care to address any health issues that may come up in the course of treatment. This way, any physical barriers to recovery are alleviated so that they can overcome their addiction once and for all.
