Facts

  • 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.
  • The average heroin addict spends anywhere from $150 and $250 per day on his or her habit.
  • One of the reasons Xanax is so addictive is because it has a fairly quick uptake in the system, and individuals who use the drug recreationally like this because they feel the effects of the drug almost instantaneously.
  • Long-term alcohol consumption may result in permanent damage to the brain.

Amesbury, MA. - Pregnant/Postpartum Women

Today, there are drug and alcohol treatment centers that are made to focus on specific groups such as pregnant/postpartum women. These rehab programs are specifically tailored to the needs of their clients and they address specific issues that are unique just to them. Treatment facilities for pregnant/postpartum women often offer individualized programs that incorporate a fair amount of flexibility into their treatment schedule. This ensures that the client's specific needs are met while maintaining the highest level of medical attention available. Many life skills and coping skills are also incorporated into facilities developed for pregnant/postpartum women. The most successful pregnant/postpartum treatment facilities 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 treatment.
