  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Methadone is one of the strongest opiates. It has a slow onset of action and a long half-life and causes severe respiratory depression which is usually the cause of death.
  • During 2010, the number of first time non-medical users of prescription sedatives in the U.S. was 252,000.
  • Anabolic steroid users sometimes engage in criminal behavior, such as committing property crimes, while being under the influence of these drugs.
  • Approximately 60% of the people who experienced a deadly drug overdose using pharmaceuticals did not have documented prescriptions for the medications.
  • GHB was put back into use by physicians in the United States for a short time during the mid 1980s, as it was being researched for the treatment of a combination of sleep disorders known as narcolepsy/cataplexy.

Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which must be overseen by substance abuse professionals within a drug rehab program who understand how difficult and challenging methadone detox can be. Methadone detox is regarded to be far more severe in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and individuals often revert back to methadone to ease withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to relieve symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification should only be done under strict supervision at a drug rehab program which has experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the person can receive additional rehabilitation services to deal with all addiction issues.
