Facts

  • OxyContin use may aggravate convulsions in patients who are predisposed to seizures.
  • Drug withdrawal symptoms from benzodiazepines are similar to that experienced in opioid withdrawal but are more intense and last longer.
  • Opiates such as heroin convert to morphine in the body which then activates opiate receptors located throughout the brain and central nervous system, including within the reward system.
  • Methadone used in opiate maintenance therapy was originally developed to help obliterate withdrawal symptoms and support a healthy lifestyle. However, the effects of withdrawal far exceed that of heroin which causes the individual to become addicted to it instead.
