  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Treatment for a drug overdose is always dependent on knowing which type of drug has been used; therefore, it is critical that a person who witnesses a drug overdose bring any pills or bottles that may help the emergency medical team to determine the appropriate form of treatment.
  • Emergency room visits for people under the age of 20 resulting from nonmedical use of pharmaceuticals increased 45.4 percent between 2004 and 2009 (116,644 and 169,589 visits, respectively).
  • Eighties teen idol Corey Haim, who has reportedly battled drug addiction for years, died in March of 2010 of an accidental drug overdose. On the night of his death, he reportedly was having trouble breathing, but no one was aware that he had ingested drugs.
  • Groups which promote self-help are proven to complement and extend the effects of drug rehab, such as Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), Narcotics Anonymous (NA), and Cocaine Anonymous (CA).
  • Individuals who abuse drugs can be prone to infection, as both drug effects and withdrawal symptoms may mask the need for urgent treatment for another condition.

Rehabilitation from drug addiction is a process that can be difficult and in a lot ofways intimidating. This is why some women seeking recovery feel more comfortable in treatment programs designed specifically for women. Women who are addicted to drugs or alcohol typicallyhave personal issues that are much different than their male counter parts. In a drug treatment program where all the clients are women, the recovering addict will feel more at ease and will be able to work through her personal issues that led to her substance abuse and addiction problems. Statistics show that up to seventy percent of drug abusing women report having some type of sexual or physical abuse in their past. These sensitive issues are easier to address in the company of other women without fear of judgment or ridicule.
