  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Individuals who abuse drugs can be prone to infection, as both drug effects and withdrawal symptoms may mask the need for urgent treatment for another condition.
  • During a methamphetamine binge users may inject as much as a gram of methamphetamine every 2-3 hours for several days until they run out of the drug or are too dazed to function.
  • Overdose of OxyContin is serious and may require hospitalization. Occasionally, the individual needs to be temporarily hooked to a ventilator to help him breathe until the OxyContin wears off.
  • Heroin users who inject the drug put themselves at risks of serious consequences including contracting human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B and C, and other blood-borne viruses.
  • An observer of a drug overdose incident should try to remain calm, and attempt to get a response from the person by squeezing their arm and calling their name.

Specialized in Hiv/Aids Patients

It is not unusual for someone with HIV/AIDS to end up in an addiction treatment facility receiving help for severe addiction problems. Sometimes people who abuse drugs and alcohol are predisposed to such diseases due to certain circumstances which afflict the drug culture such as sharing dirty needles to inject drugs or becoming involved in risky sexual behavior because of lowered sexual inhibitions caused by drug use. Persons with HIV/AIDS should have effective rehabilitation just like any otherwise healthy addicted person. Substance abuse treatment programs that accept and cater to persons with HIV/AIDS offer specialized care to address any health issues that may come up in the course of treatment. This way, any physical barriers to recovery are resolved so that they can conquer their addiction once and for all.
