  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Ecstasy use is particularly common in the gay community for example, where individuals will typically use the drug in combination with other illicit or prescription drugs such as marijuana, cocaine, methamphetamine, ketamine, Viagra, etc. as part of a multi-drug experience.
  • Alcohol depresses body functions that play a key role in involuntary actions such as breathing and the gag reflex which prevents choking. A fatal dose of alcohol will eventually stop these functions.
  • HIV infected individuals who consume alcohol are more prone to have difficulty remembering and experience problems with coordination and attention.
  • Educating physicians who prescribe prescription drugs regarding prescription drug abuse is critically important, because even brief interventions by physicians have proven effective in reducing or eliminating prescription drug abuse in individuals who are not yet addicted to them.
  • Getting married reduces the level of drug use for both children of alcoholics and children of non-alcoholics, although children of alcoholics are less inclined to get married so their level of drug use often continues into young adulthood.

Medicare Coverage

Drug addiction and alcoholism can effect many older Americans and seniors, and this problem is projected to only worsen in the coming years. Seniors who are covered through the Medicare program, an insurance plan funded through the federal government for Americans in this age bracket, can use their benefits to receive treatment services for addiction at a wide variety of drug and alcohol rehab programs around the country. Medicare covers both inpatient and outpatient treatment programs, and seniors who are in need of treatment can consult with their primary care physician to choose a rehab program covered by Medicare which would fit his or her particular needs.
