Facts

  • Short-term effects produced by heroin include a surge of euphoria and clouded thinking followed by alternately wakeful and drowsy states.
  • Most heroin users that have also used methadone have claimed that the detox and withdrawal from heroin was far less difficult and painful than that of methadone.
  • PCP may contain contaminants and be impure, causing the color to range from tan to brown, and the consistency to range from powder to a gummy mass.
  • Methadone used in opiate maintenance therapy was originally developed to help obliterate withdrawal symptoms and support a healthy lifestyle. However, the effects of withdrawal far exceed that of heroin which causes the individual to become addicted to it instead.
