  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Heroin is currently listed in the U.S. as a Schedule I drug in the Controlled Substances Act because of its potential for abuse and its lack of accepted medical use.
  • Aside from benign substances like sugar, Illicit drugs, such as heroin, codeine, amphetamine, phencyclidine (PCP), LSD, and hashish, are also sometimes mixed with cocaine which the user may or may not be aware of.
  • Having a sense of urgency in regard to seeking emergency medical treatment can help to limit the long term health consequences that are so often associated with a drug overdose.
  • In certain people, an interaction that could result in a potentially fatal overdose can take place when alcohol is mixed with cough medicines that contain dextromethorphan; unfortunately, there is no possible way to predict who will experience this particular, life-threatening interaction, and who will not.
  • Animal studies show that exposure to Ecstasy for just a few days can cause brain damage that is still evident many years later.

Specialized in Hiv/Aids Patients

It is not unusual for persons with HIV/AIDS to end up in an addiction rehab facility receiving help for serious addiction problems. Often individuals who abuse drugs and alcohol are predisposed to such diseases due to 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 treatment just like any otherwise healthy addicted individual. Substance abuse treatment facilities that accept and cater to persons with HIV/AIDS provide specialized care to address any health issues that may come up in the course of treatment. This way, any physical barriers to rehabilitation are alleviated so that they can overcome their addiction and maintain a drug-free lifestyle.
