  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Sometimes drug overdoses are the result of a suicide attempt, but many times, drug overdoses are accidental.
  • Amphetamine abuse is a growing problem in the United States with hundreds of illegal amphetamine producing laboratories being found and closed each year.
  • Even though other analgesics such as hydromorphone and fentanyl have a high abuse potential, morphine is still considered to be far more addictive.
  • Although amphetamines were once prescribed to control obesity and depression their use for these disorders was discontinued because patients became quickly and seriously dependent.
  • If someone has been abusing Valium and is addicted to it, a detox should be followed up with a drug treatment program which treats benzodiazepine addiction to ensure that the individual stays off of Valium and other drugs for good.

Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which should be supervised by drug addiction professionals within a drug treatment facility who recognize how challenging and difficult methadone detox can be. Methadone detoxification is known to be far more serious in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and users often revert back to methadone to ease withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to ease symptoms. This is why methadone detox must only be done under strict supervision at a drug rehabilitation facility which has experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the individual can receive further recovery services to handle all addiction issues.
