  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Alcohol slows reaction time and impairs judgment and coordination, skills which are needed to drive a motor vehicle safely. The more alcohol consumed, the greater the impairment.
  • After the beginning of alcohol withdrawal, symptoms may worsen within 48-72 hours and can even continue to plague the individual for weeks.
  • In 2010 there were 1.5 million current cocaine users aged 12 or older in the nation, which is similar to the number and rate in 2009 (1.6 million or 0.7 percent) showing very little improvement in curbing the cocaine drug problem.
  • Current research has indicated that charcoal administration that has commonly been used to help patients that are experiencing a drug overdose carries the serious risk of the patient breathing vomit into their lungs, which could potentially be fatal.
  • Cocaine is most often smuggled into the United States across the Mexican border, where it arrives in powder form and is converted to crack by the wholesaler or retailer.

Detoxification

Detoxification is normally the very first step in getting off drugs. It permits an individual to be in a supervised setting while they go through withdrawal symptoms for drugs and/or alcohol. There are various types of detoxification. Theyrange from drug-free to medically supervised. A prevalent mistake that quite a few addicts make is to think that detox is enough to kick their habit. This is almost never the case. All detox does is get a person through the withdrawal when they stop using. It is always recommended that detox be followed up with some type of treatment plan to discover the root of why someone was using drugs in the first place.
