Facts

  • Methamphetamine is similar in structure to the brain chemical dopamine, the brain's pleasure transmitter, which is what causes neurons to release large amounts of dopamine which produce a high.
  • Of all of the illicit drug and/or heavy alcohol users in the nation, 43 percent of Americans report using only an illicit drug, 42 percent report using only alcohol heavily, and 16 percent report using both illicit drugs and alcohol heavily.
  • Some individuals who use crack cocaine die after taking a very small amount because of an increased sensitization.
  • The human body can only metabolize a certain amount of alcohol every hour, no matter how much alcohol is consumed at any given time, a process which can vary depending on a range of factors, including liver size and body mass.

Danforth, IL. - Methadone Detoxification

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and difficult experience. Withdrawal Symptoms usually begin between twenty-four and forty-eight hours after the user's last dose of the drug. Typical withdrawal symptoms include: stomach cramps, nausea, sweating, tremors, extreme opiate cravings, sneezing, irritability, chills, vomiting, anxiety, paranoia, fuzzy-headedness, hallucinations and clinical depression. Additionally, methadone withdrawal symptoms will last much longer than heroin withdrawal symptoms. Depending on the dose of methadone you have been taking the symptoms can last for several weeks to several months. Professionals in the field of methadone detoxification typically advise the gradual decrease of the drug over a period of time instead of stopping all at once.
