  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • It is important for an observer of a drug overdose to question the patient about what drugs they have taken, as by the time they reach the hospital, they may have be unconscious, and therefore may be unable to communicate.
  • Common amphetamine withdrawal symptoms are fatigue, troubled sleep, irritability, intense hunger, and moderate to severe depression, which may lead to suicidal behavior.
  • Although heroin withdrawal is considered less dangerous than alcohol or barbiturate withdrawal, sudden withdrawal by chronic and long term heroin users who are in poor health can be fatal.
  • Depending on how much hashish has been taken, effects can vary depending on the way it is administered.
  • Effective drug rehab should involve employment training which can help individuals become accustomed to the rewards associated with abstinence.

Detoxification

Detoxification is usually the very first step in getting off drugs. It makes it possible for an individual to be in a supervised environment while they go through withdrawal symptoms for drugs and/or alcohol. There are different types of detoxification. Theyvary from drug-free to medically supervised. A typical mistake that a lot of addicts make is to assume that detox is enough to kick their habit. This is seldom the case. All detox does is get somebody through the withdrawal when they stop using. It is at all times recommended that detox be followed up with some type of treatment plan to find out the root of why someone was using drugs in the first place.
