  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • During 2008, about 7.2% of pregnant women used alcohol.
  • Individuals who are high on Ecstasy may take too much of the drug at once as a result of being disoriented and confused which can cause a deadly overdose.
  • A much higher rate of Ativan overdose occurrence are reported in senior citizens; this is likely due to the sedative effects of Ativan lasting significantly longer in elderly patients.
  • Heroin users will ultimately become tolerant to the drug over time and after repeated use, and often find themselves needing increasingly larger doses of the drug to achieve the same intensity or effect they experienced when they first began using heroin.
  • Inhalant abuse may result in a rapid high that can mimic alcohol intoxication; which is why individuals that "huff" should not operate a vehicle.

Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which must be overseen by addiction professionals within a drug rehabilitation program who recognize how difficult and challenging methadone detox can be. Methadone detoxification is regarded to be far more serious in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and individuals often revert back to methadone to ease withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to relieve symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification should only be done under close supervision at a drug rehab facility which has practical experience in handling this type of detox, and where the person can receive additional rehabilitation services to deal with all addiction issues.
