  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • An overdose from stimulants such as amphetamines or cocaine is generally characterized by symptoms such as a rapid heartbeat, muscle cramps, seizures, psychosis, paranoia, and confusion, loss of motor control movement, vomiting, lack of consciousness, cardiac arrest, and death.
  • In 2008 national surveys indicated that 28% of youth aged 12 to 20 years drink alcohol and 19% reported binge drinking.
  • Individuals whose clinic gives them enough methadone to last one week, or even up to one month, commonly sell their excess prescribed methadone on the street in the illicit drug market.
  • Alcoholics may develop deficiencies in thiamine which can lead to "Korsakoffs Syndrome", a disorder which can cause amnesia, apathy and disorientation.
  • Because crack cocaine decreases appetite, long-time crack users often become malnourished.

Caters to Pregnant/Postpartum Women

When pregnant/postpartum women need drug or alcohol rehabilitation there are several factors unique to their situation that must be addressed. This particular group of addicted persons faces not only the personal shame of their addiction but also the reality of what their unhealthy choices may have caused their children. Recovery for pregnant/postpartum women typically requires programs that are both individualized and flexible in their recovery plan. Although the program duration may vary depending on the woman's specific needs it is understood that the longer a person participates in treatment the better their chance of a successful recovery. Many rehab facilities for pregnant/postpartum women can run long-term for six months or more.
