  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • In the United States, there is currently a growing concern regarding the increase of Ritalin overdoses in small children; most of these cases were due to caregivers unintentionally giving patients excessive amounts of this medication.
  • As of 2005, the most significant predictors of whether an individual would complete drug rehab or transfer to another program to receive further treatment included: alcohol as the primary substance of abuse, less than daily use at admission, being over age 40, having 12 or more years of education, being White, referral to treatment by the criminal justice system, and being employed.
  • Taking Ritalin with large amounts of stomach antacid medications increases the amount of the drug that is present in the bloodstream; this type of drug interaction greatly increases the risk of a Ritalin overdose.
  • In low doses crystal meth heightens the senses, produces a high and makes the uses more alert.
  • Effective treatment for heroin addiction is available, and users seeking treatment should enroll in a residential drug treatment program that can assist them with withdrawal and recovery from their addiction.

Seniors/Older Adult Services

Whether it is apparent or not, seniors and older adults encompass 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 rehabilitation programs 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.
