  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • If an individual is experiencing a GHB overdose they will typically have difficulty breathing, a lowered heart rate, convulsions, or in rare instances, death.
  • Individuals with co-occurring alcohol and other drug use disorders may have personality, mood, and anxiety disorders and are more likely to attempt suicide and to suffer health problems.
  • Increased methadone use as an analgesic in the U.S. has come about as physicians search for an opioid drug that can be dosed less frequently than short-acting drugs like morphine or hydrocodone.
  • GHB is often used to facilitate sexual assaults, due to the fact that it is tasteless and odorless and can be easily mixed with any type of liquid. This has earned it the name the "date rape drug."
  • According to a recent article in the Los Angeles Times, drug overdose deaths now outnumber traffic fatalities in the United States; the article concluded that this increase is mostly due to the significant increase in the number of individuals who abuse prescription drugs in this country.
