Facts
- Sudden heroin withdrawal by heavily dependent users who are in poor health can result in death under certain conditions.
- When taken in equal doses, the withdrawal symptoms that occur with methadone are much more severe than those of morphine and are significantly more prolonged.
- Out of the over 2 million drug abuse emergency room visits in 2009, over 14 percent were for alcohol, in combination with other drugs.
- Smoking crack sends large quantities of the drug to the lungs, which creates an immediate and intense euphoric effect.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Any person who is seriously addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit greatly by attending a hospital inpatient program. These types of programs are focused towards physical health, mental health and medical stabilization. Recovering persons will have access to medication as well as medical staff around the clock. While not every person attempting recovery needs this level of care, it is useful to those who have serious physical addiction problems to drugs or alcohol. Hospital inpatient programs often last several days to several weeks. Once the hospital inpatient portion of their recovery is complete they may choose to participate at a sober living setting or transfer into an outpatient program.
