  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Heroin is the preferred drug among opiate addicts mostly because it is several times more potent than morphine and reaches the brain very quickly, producing an euphoric rush when injected intravenously.
  • In low doses crystal meth heightens the senses, produces a high and makes the uses more alert.
  • Around 17% of men and about 8% of women will meet criteria for alcohol dependence at some point in their lives.
  • Driving while under the influence of Ambien is even more dangerous than driving drunk, due to the diminished motor controls and the possibility of delusions that may affect the user.
  • Ecstasy use can result in side effects which can persist for days and weeks, some of which can be extremely unpleasant such as muscle tension and involuntary teeth clenching.

Detoxification

Detoxification is typically the very first step in getting off drugs. It allows a person to be in a supervised environment while they go through withdrawal symptoms for drugs and/or alcohol. There are various types of detoxification. Theyvary from drug-free to medically supervised. A prevalent mistake that many addicts make is to think that detox is sufficient to kick their habit. This is seldom the case. All detox does is get a person through the withdrawal when they stop using. It is usually recommended that detox be followed up with some type of treatment plan to learn the root of why a person was using drugs in the first place.
