  • 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.
  • A Mississippi man who said he had tried every drug from heroin to crack had terrifying hallucinations while high on Bath Salts that he wrote to a local newspaper urging people to stay away from them.
  • Alcohol abuse can greatly suppress the immune system, and individuals addicted to alcohol are more susceptible to infections such as tuberculosis, pneumonia, bacterial infections, or HIV/AIDS.
  • During the nineties rates of heroin use rose as heroin on the street became purer. The price stayed the same and more young and middle-class Americans began using the drug.
  • In 2008 the average age of first use of heroin in the U.S. was 23.4 years.

Detox for Methadone

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