Facts

  • Whether a drug addicted individual stays in drug rehab depends on many factors including motivation to change behavioral patterns and the degree of support offered from family and friends. This often frequently includes pressure from the criminal justice system, child protection services, employers or family.
  • Because central nervous system depressants work by slowing the brain's activity, when an individual stops taking the drug this activity can rebound and as part of withdrawal seizures can occur.
  • There were nearly 2 million treatment admissions for alcoholism in 2006, accounting for all facilities that report to state administrative data systems, making the actual number greater.
  • Marijuana is the most commonly used illegal drug in the United States.

Methadone Detoxification - Chualar

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and taxing experience. Symptoms usually begin between twenty-four and forty-eight hours after the user's last dose of methadone. Common symptoms include: stomach cramps, nausea, sweating, extreme cravings, tremors, irritability, sneezing, fever, chills, anxiety, paranoia, fuzzy-headedness, hallucinations and clinical depression. Additionally, methadone withdrawal symptoms tend to continue much longer than heroin withdrawal symptoms. Depending on the dose of methadone and how long the person has been using methadone, the symptoms can last for several weeks to several months. Professionals in the field of methadone detoxification typically advise the gradual decrease of the drug over a period of time instead of stopping all at once.
