Facts
- Mixing amphetamines with other drugs puts additional strain on the heart and increases blood pressure.
- The morning after an alcohol binge, the body's organs try to make up for their own water loss by taking it from the brain causing the brain to decrease in size and pull on the membranes that connect the brain to the skull, resulting in pain.
- Individuals who are addicted to heroin will endure many of the withdrawal symptoms to reduce their tolerance for the drug, only so they can once again experience the rush.
- Occasionally, rare heroin withdrawal symptoms can occur including cardiac arrhythmias, strokes, seizures, dehydration and suicide attempts.
Gerlach - DetoxificationMen and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will initially go through detox before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detoxification is basically the process of the drug being eradicated from one's system, which is typically uncomfortable and may hold risks if not executed in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as necessary. Detoxification services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug rehab facility which can correctly oversee and present medical supervision for persons who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services typically include insuring the individual is as relaxed as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, providing proper nutrition and making certain the person is receiving proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as necessary to make the detoxification process as smooth and safe as possible. The particular person in detoxification will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some form of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detox facility or drug rehabilitation facility which can offer detox services, the client will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to make certain that any issues are fixed as quickly and safely as possible.
