Facts
- Doctors argue whether the withdrawal syndrome leaves individuals who take sleeping medication worse than they would be without the drug, but evidence suggests that it often does.
- The human liver combines cocaine and alcohol to produce a third substance, cocaethylene, which intensifies the effects of the drug. Cocaethylene is associated with a greater risk of sudden death than just crack cocaine.
- Withdrawal symptoms from heroin begin within 24 hours after last use and may last up to 7-10 days.
- The number of patients in search of detox or substance abuse treatment as the reason for their emergency room visit remained relatively stable between 2004 through 2008.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
An individual who is heavily addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit tremendously by receiving treatment from a hospital inpatient program. These types of programs are focused towards making the individual�''s withdrawal and detox as smooth as possible. Recovering persons will have access to medication as well as medical staff around the clock. While not every drug addict needs this level of care, it is helpful to those who have serious physical addiction problems to drugs or alcohol. Hospital inpatient programs commonly last several days to several weeks. Once the hospital inpatient portion of their treatment plan is finished they may choose to participate at a sober living facility or transfer into an outpatient program.
