Facts

  • Opiates are types of drugs that have been used for many years to treat pain.
  • 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 use of hashish by a mother during the first month of breast-feeding can impair the infant's motor development.
  • The use of LSD can result in a variety of negative long-term effects, both in first time and chronic users of the drug.

Military Insurance (e.g., VA, TRICARE) - Gardena, California

There are a lot of ways to get part or all of your drug rehabilitation paid for. For those who have military insurance (e.g., VA, TRICARE) you will need to contact your provider directly to see exactly what you are eligible for. While both parts of TriCare (TriCare Standard and TriCare Extra) cover drug rehabilitation, only some VA benefits cover the expense of substance abuse rehabilitation. Once you have spoken with your military insurance provider (e.g., VA, TRICARE) and fully understand what they will pay for regarding substance abuse treatment you can begin researching drug rehabilitation programs. Be sure to speak to the billing department to make sure that they accept your military insurance (e.g., VA, TRICARE). You will want to have a full understanding of what your part (if any) of the cost of treatment will be before you enroll into the program.
