Facts

  • When drug addicted individuals take part in drug rehab, they and society at large benefit from fewer interpersonal conflicts, greater workplace productivity, and fewer drug-related accidents, including overdoses and deaths.
  • The intensity and duration of opiate withdrawal varies greatly depending on the dose and speed of withdrawal. Short-acting opiates, such as heroin, tend to produce more intense but briefer symptoms.
  • Opiate addicted individuals should receive professional opiate detox services to help them through the potentially dangerous withdrawal process.
  • Repeated and chronic heroin users who fail to use sterile needles or share equipment may experience infection of the heart lining and valves, normally due to lack of sterile technique.
