  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • It is important for an observer of a drug overdose to question the patient about what drugs they have taken, as by the time they reach the hospital, they may have be unconscious, and therefore may be unable to communicate.
  • Due to the illicit diversion of drug, many states have introduced prescription monitoring programs which monitor who gets fentanyl and where.
  • By the time they graduate from high school, over 40% of teens will have tried marijuana.
  • Treatment for a drug overdose is always dependent on knowing which type of drug has been ingested; therefore, it is important that the emergency medical team has as much information as possible, concerning the incident.
  • A potentially fatal heroin overdose can occur when an individual that has been consuming alcohol ingests even the smallest amount of the drug.

Detox for Methadone

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