Facts

  • Sudden cessation of long term use of morphine by long term heavily dependent users may be fatal, although morphine withdrawal is considered to be less dangerous than alcohol withdrawal.
  • Pre-school aged children of alcoholics are more likely to exhibit poorer language and reasoning skills than their peers whose parents were not alcoholics, mainly due to the lower quality of stimulation present in the home of children of alcoholics.
  • PCP affects the levels of dopamine in the brain, a natural chemical in the body which is responsible for the euphoria and "rush" associated with many abused drugs.
  • Nasal decongestants including Afrin and Otrivin can cause rebound congestion as part of withdrawal from these medications if used for more than a few days.

Medicare - Geismar

Substance abuse and addiction affects every race, age and gender. For drug addicted people 65 years or older, Medicare is an option to pay for some if not all of their drug treatment. Medicare insurance will pay for the treatment of alcoholism and drug abuse in both outpatient and inpatient settings, as long as certain requirements are met. The addict must obtain services from a Medicare-participating facility or provider. The drug addicted person's doctor states that the services requested are medically necessary and that the patient's doctor creates the plan of treatment to be carried out. Also, Medicare will only cover a total of 190 days in a psychiatric hospital for the individual's entire lifetime.
