  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Dilaudid use can result in addiction or dependence after just a few weeks of use, or at unusually high doses.
  • A number of fatal fentanyl overdoses have been caused by time-release fentanyl patches which were prescribed to legitimate users for pain; a defect caused the patch to malfunction causing an excessive amount of the drug to leak and become absorbed by patients, resulting in life-threatening side effects and death in some cases.
  • Drinking alcohol in excess accounts for 2.3 million years of potential life lost (YPLL) annually, or an average of about 30 years of potential life lost for each death.
  • Nausea can be an extremely dangerous drug overdose symptom, because many people have died from breathing vomit into their lungs (aspirate).
  • Due to the drugs undesirable side effects, GHB was discontinued by the medical community in the United States many years ago.

Detoxification

Detoxification is commonly the 1st step in getting off drugs. It allows a person 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 common mistake that many addicts make is to assume that detox is sufficient to kick their habit. This is hardly ever the case. All detox does is get someone through the withdrawal when they stop using. It is usually recommended that detox be followed up with some type of treatment plan to uncover the root of why somebody was using drugs in the first place.
