Facts

  • The most commonly abused prescription drugs in the U.S. are painkillers, stimulants and central nervous system depressants.
  • The acetaminophen component in Lortab can on its own cause a fatal overdose. High doses of acetaminophen can cause liver damage, and dosages should never exceed 4000 mg a day. Acetaminophen is metabolized solely by the liver, so there is a risk of fatal overdose due to hepatotoxicity when Lortab is mixed with alcohol.
  • Sudden cessation of use of methadone at high doses can result in withdrawal symptoms described as "the worst withdrawal imaginable," and can last from weeks to months.
  • The visual distortions produced by LSD are often referred to as "pseudo-hallucinations" because people are aware that what they are seeing is not real due to the effects of the drug.

Pregnant/Postpartum Women - Bernville, Pennsylvania

Today, there are drug and alcohol rehab programs that are created to focus on specific groups such as pregnant/postpartum women. These treatment facilities are specifically tailored to the needs of their clients and they address specific issues that are unique just to them. Rehabilitation facilities for pregnant/postpartum women commonly provide individualized programs that incorporate a fair amount of flexibility into their treatment protocol. This ensures that the client's specific needs are met while maintaining close medical supervision. Many life skills are also incorporated into facilities developed for pregnant/postpartum women. The most successful pregnant/postpartum rehab facilities have integrated "household" chores (cleaning, cooking, etc.) into their curriculum so that taking care of their babies and small children goes more smoothly once they leave the rehab program.
