  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Overdose deaths can be intentional or unintentional, and they can result from both licit and illicit drug abuse. Drugs commonly implicated in overdose deaths are alcohol, psychoactive medications, analgesics, illicit drugs such as cocaine and heroin, and multiple drugs taken concomitantly.
  • Ecstasy was first introduced in the 1980s, but by 1995 was already less than 10% pure.
  • Individuals with breathing problems, glaucoma, kidney or liver disease, suicidal thoughts, or addiction to drugs or alcohol should not take Ativan as it can complicate and worsen these conditions.
  • Amphetamines as stimulants are highly addictive and work like alcohol, nicotine, and cocaine on the dopamine "reward" systems of the brain.
  • Fentanyl is hundreds of times more potent than street heroin, and tends to produce significantly worse respiratory depression, making it a dangerous drug for heroin abusers to play around with.

Seniors/Older Adult Services

Whether it is evident or not, seniors and older adults comprise a significant 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 centers which are prepared to treat seniors and older adults who are in need of rehabilitation for addiction issues. 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 seek rehabilitation before any long term consequences arise.
