  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Crack cocaine users often increase their dose in an attempt to intensify and prolong the effects of the drug, but this can also increase the risk of adverse psychological or physiological effects.
  • Ecstasy use is associated with overheating and dehydration which may cause the user to over-compensate by consuming large amounts of water while partying which can lead to water toxicity.
  • Dilaudid overdoses occur often, and are a result of the individual consuming more of the drug than their body can process safely.
  • Chronic crystal meth users who inject the drug also risk scarred or collapsed veins, infections of the heart lining and valves, abscesses, pneumonia, tuberculosis, and liver or kidney disease.
  • During a cocaine binge the drug is taken repeatedly for many hours or even days and users often experience increasing restlessness, irritability and paranoia and even paranoid psychosis in some cases with auditory hallucinations and a disconnection with reality.

Specialized in Hiv/Aids Patients

It is not unusual for persons with HIV/AIDS to end up in a drug rehab facility in search of help for serious addiction problems. Sometimes people who abuse drugs and alcohol are predisposed to such diseases because of certain circumstances which afflict the drug culture such as sharing dirty needles to inject drugs or participating in risky sexual behavior because of lowered sexual inhibitions caused by drug use. Persons with HIV/AIDS should have effective treatment just like any otherwise healthy addicted individual. Drug treatment centers that accept and cater to persons with HIV/AIDS offer specialized care to address any health issues that may come up in the course of treatment. This way, any physical barriers to recovery are alleviated so that they can overcome their addiction and maintain a drug-free lifestyle.
