  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Abuse of prescription drugs including opioids, central nervous system (CNS) depressants, and stimulants can alter the brains activity and lead to addiction.
  • Aside from serotonin, Ecstasy also affects another chemical in the brain known as norepinephrine which may cause an increase in heart rate and blood pressure.
  • Currently in the United States, there is very little funding for overdose prevention; unfortunately, the overdose epidemic continues to escalate as the federal grants for these types of preventative programs are not being approved for funding.
  • In some areas, crystal meth is being used more than ecstasy as the drug of choice among teenagers and young adults on the rave and dance scene.
  • During 2008, illicit use of prescription opioids was the second most abused drug in Americans 12 years of age or older following marijuana.
