  • Heroin is the preferred drug among opiate addicts mostly because it is several times more potent than morphine and reaches the brain very quickly, producing an euphoric rush when injected intravenously.
  • Crack is made by dissolving powdered cocaine with water and ammonia or baking soda, which is then boiled until a solid substance forms. The solid is removed from the liquid, dried, and then broken into the chunks (rocks) that are sold as crack cocaine.
  • Illicit drug use among Americans in the military increased from 5 percent to 12 percent among active duty service members between 2005 and 2008, primarily due to prescription drug abuse.

Detoxification

Detoxification is typically the 1st step in getting off drugs. It enables an individual to be in a supervised setting while they go through withdrawal symptoms for drugs and/or alcohol. There are various types of detoxification. Theyrange from drug-free to medically supervised. A prevalent mistake that quite a few addicts make is to feel that detox is enough to kick their habit. This is rarely the case. All detox does is get a person through the withdrawal when they stop using. It is always recommended that detox be followed up with some type of treatment plan to discover the root of why someone was using drugs in the first place.
