Facts

  • Opiates act directly on the respiratory center in the brainstem, causing a slow in activity resulting in a decrease in breathing rate.
  • Major opiate or synthetic opioid drug withdrawal symptoms reach their peak within 24 to 48 hours after the last dose and subside after about a week.
  • Many addicted individuals misuse their outpatient methadone maintenance program, and take less than a blocking dose of 80 mg. so that they will be able to "feel it" if they combine their methadone dose with other drugs such as heroin.
  • The most successful drug rehabs address multiple needs of the individual, not just his or her drug abuse.

Halfway House - Carter, Oklahoma

A halfway house is a good option for a recovering drug addict that is looking for additional support once they have completed a drug rehab program. It is a setting where they can be surrounded by like-minded persons who are going through the same experience they are, recovering from drug or alcohol addiction. When you choose to stay at a halfway house (also known as sober living or recovery house) you will be required to maintain your sobriety. It is common that there will be additional rules and guidelines that you will need to adhere to in order to maintain your residence at the halfway house. You may be expected to attend recovery meetings and be subjected to random drug tests to confirm your sobriety.
