  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • In the United States, the highest rates of drug overdose deaths are reported to occur in the rural Appalachian states, the Southwestern states, and New England.
  • Combining alcohol with hashish raises the risk of an accident while high on the drug.
  • Chronic heroin use often prompts behavior that is self-destructive and irresponsible, antisocial, and indifferent to the injury, pain, or loss it causes others.
  • In certain people, an interaction that could result in a potentially fatal overdose can take place when alcohol is mixed with cough medicines that contain dextromethorphan; unfortunately, there is no possible way to predict who will experience this particular, life-threatening interaction, and who will not.
  • Heroin withdrawal is not fatal for those who are in overall good health, but it can be fatal to the fetus of someone who is pregnant.

Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which should be supervised by substance abuse professionals within a drug rehab center who realize how difficult and challenging methadone detoxification can be. Methadone detoxification is regarded to be far more serious in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and users typically revert back to methadone to relieve withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to alleviate symptoms. This is why methadone detox must only be done under close supervision at a drug rehab program which has experience in handling this type of detoxification, and where the person can receive further treatment services to address all addiction issues.
