  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Current research that was conducted by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) has reported that drug overdoses are reported to be the principle cause of death in long term substance abusers.
  • Individuals who survive a drug overdose may often need long term health care; this medical care may include kidney dialysis, a kidney or liver transplant, or treatment for heart failure, stroke, or coma.
  • Crack first was used mainly in poor inner-city neighborhoods in New York, Los Angeles, and Miami in late 1984 and 1985.
  • Overdose deaths can be intentional or unintentional, and they can result from both licit and illicit drug abuse. Drugs commonly implicated in overdose deaths are alcohol, psychoactive medications, analgesics, illicit drugs such as cocaine and heroin, and multiple drugs taken concomitantly.
  • A study of gay men in the San Francisco Bay Area concluded that gay males who participated in circuit party weekends and also used methamphetamine were more than twice as likely to have unprotected anal sex during the same time period with a partner whose HIV status was unknown or different from theirs.

Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which must be overseen by substance abuse professionals within a drug treatment center who realize 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 relieve symptoms. This is why methadone detox should only be done under close supervision at a drug rehab center which has practical experience in dealing with this type of detoxification, and where the individual can receive additional treatment services to deal with all addiction issues.
