Facts

  • Methadone withdrawal is so burdensome to those who are addicted and dependent to it, that someone who is using it may think that they will be on it for the rest of their lives, or at least for many years.
  • Parents who don't understand or consider the risks associated with giving prescription drugs to a teenager or other family member for whom the medication was not prescribed are putting these individuals at risk of adverse affects of prescription drug use as well as dependence and addiction.
  • Short-term effects of marijuana use may include euphoria, distorted perceptions, memory impairment, and difficulty thinking and solving problems.
  • Severe muscle contractions which result from PCP use may cause bone fracture and even kidney damage or failure as a consequence of muscle cells breaking down.

Pregnant/Postpartum Women - Nome

Today, there are drug treatment centers that are created to focus on specific drug addicted groups such as pregnant/postpartum women. These treatment facilities are specifically tailored to the needs of their clients and they address specific issues that are unique just to them. Rehabilitation programs for pregnant/postpartum women typically offer individualized programs that incorporate a good amount of flexibility into their treatment schedule. This ensures that the client's specific needs are addressed while maintaining close medical supervision. Many life skills and coping skills are also integrated into facilities developed for pregnant/postpartum women. The most effective pregnant/postpartum treatment centers have included "household" chores (cleaning, cooking, etc.) into their curriculum so that taking care of their babies and small children goes more smoothly once they leave the rehab program.
