  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Amphetamine abuse is a growing problem in the United States with hundreds of illegal amphetamine producing laboratories being found and closed each year.
  • After methadone is ingested it is quickly distributed to body tissues where it is stored and then released into the plasma, a method of storage and release that allows the patient to remain comfortable, free from craving for an extended period of time.
  • During 2004, around 6.0 million Americans reported having used prescription drugs non-medically in past 30 days.
  • Currently in the United States, there is very little funding for overdose prevention; unfortunately, the overdose epidemic continues to escalate as the federal grants for these types of preventative programs are not being approved for funding.
  • Fentanyl is commonly used to treat individuals with severe pain, to manage pain after surgery, and sometimes to treat people with chronic pain who are physically tolerant to opiates.

Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which should be overseen by substance abuse professionals within a drug rehab facility who recognize how challenging and difficult methadone detox can be. Methadone detox is known to be far more serious in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and individuals typically revert back to methadone to alleviate withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to alleviate symptoms. This is why methadone detox must only be done under close supervision at a drug rehab program which has experience in handling this type of detoxification, and where the person can receive further rehabilitation services to handle all addiction issues.
