  • Amphetamines elevate cardiac output and blood pressure, making them dangerous for use by patients with a history of heart disease or hypertension.
  • Heroin abusers often combine it with other drugs, such cocaine or methamphetamine with heroin (known as speedballing), or use alcohol, marijuana, or tranquilizers to enhance the high and blunt effects of withdrawal.
  • Alcohol causes a break down in the bodys store of glycogen in the liver, turning it into glucose and sending it out of the body in the urine causing weakness, fatigue and lack coordination after a night of heavy alcohol consumption.
  • For opiate addicted individuals in relatively good health, withdrawal from opiates can last up to a week.
  • Commonly abused classes of prescription drugs include opioids (for pain), central nervous system depressants (for anxiety and sleep disorders), and stimulants (for ADHD and narcolepsy).

Seniors/Older Adult Services

Whether it is apparent or not, seniors and older adults comprise a considerable percentage of individuals in the United States who struggle with drug and/or alcohol abuse and addiction. As the baby boomer generation ages, this will become an even bigger problem with an even bigger need for drug rehab programs which are prepared to treat seniors and older adults who are in need of treatment for addiction problems. Seniors and older adults are faced with many physical challenges as a result of their age, which can have an impact on treatment outcome if not addressed concurrently. It is beneficial for seniors and older adults to find rehabilitation before any long term consequences come about.
