Facts
- Nearly 2 million Americans surveyed in 2008 that were over the age of 12 reported using inhalants within the past year.
- Opiates such as heroin convert to morphine in the body which then activates opiate receptors located throughout the brain and central nervous system, including within the reward system.
- Research indicates that there is a link between nitrate abuse and the development and progression of infectious diseases and tumors.
- Rapid opiate detoxification to treat opiate withdrawal can be performed in a hospital or private clinic setting using a drug such as Naltrexone, an opiate antagonist that blocks opiate receptors and reverses the effects of opiates. Clonidine is administered at the same time to ease the symptoms of withdrawal.
