Facts
- Opana is so highly addictive that studies indicate that the physiological effects of injected heroin and Opana are pretty much the same, and users cannot tell the difference between the two.
- The total number of drug-related emergency room visits rose over 80 percent from 2004 (2.5 million) to 2009 (4.6 million).
- The individual who has become physically as well as psychologically dependent on heroin will experience heroin addiction withdrawal with an abrupt discontinuation of use or even a decrease in their daily amount of heroin taken.
- OxyContin is an opiate agonist, meaning it provides pain relief by acting on opioid receptors in the spinal cord, brain, and possibly in the tissues directly.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Today, there are drug and alcohol treatment centers that are designed to focus on specific groups such as pregnant/postpartum women. These treatment centers are specifically tailored to the needs of their clients and they address specific issues that are unique just to them. Rehabilitation facilities for pregnant/postpartum women commonly offer individualized programs that incorporate a great amount of flexibility into their treatment protocol. This ensures that the client's specific needs are addressed while maintaining the highest level of medical attention available. Many life skills are also integrated into programs developed for pregnant/postpartum women. The most successful pregnant/postpartum treatment programs 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.
