  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Many individuals who use GHB will risk a deadly overdose, as they are trying to take enough of the drug to be able to experience an "out of body buzz, which would be like watching themselves on television."
  • Crack cocaine arrests in 2002 accounted for 15% of the Drug Enforcement Administrations arrests that year.
  • Ecstasy users often take the drug despite experiencing unpleasant physical side effects and other social, behavioral, and health consequences.
  • Chronic abuse of alcohol can cause damage to the cells lining the stomach and intestines, blocking the absorption and breakdown of nutrients in those organs.
  • Inhalant abuse, specifically abuse of trichloroethylene which can be found in spot removers and degreasers, can cause cirrhosis of the liver and hearing and liver damage.

Medicare Coverage

Drug addiction and alcoholism affects many older Americans and seniors, and this issue is projected to only worsen in the coming years. Seniors who are covered through the Medicare program, an insurance program funded through the federal government for Americans in this age bracket, can use their Medicare benefits to receive treatment services for substance abuse at a variety of substance abuse rehab programs around the country. Medicare covers both inpatient and outpatient rehab programs, and seniors who wish to receive help can consult with their primary care physician to choose a treatment program covered by Medicare which would be suitable for them.
