Facts

  • The mixture of fentanyl and heroin is known as "magic" or "the bomb" on the street.
  • When people mix cocaine and alcohol the dangers associated with the use of these substances are compounded, and the human liver combines cocaine and alcohol and manufactures a third substance, cocaethylene, which intensifies cocaine's euphoric effects while also increasing the risk of sudden death.
  • The term "embalming fluid" is often used in reference to liquid PCP that a cigarette is dipped in, to be ingested through smoking, commonly known as "boat" or "water."
  • When drug addicted individuals take part in drug rehab, they and society at large benefit from fewer interpersonal conflicts, greater workplace productivity, and fewer drug-related accidents, including overdoses and deaths.

Methadone Detoxification - Gilroy

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and difficult experience. Withdrawal Symptoms usually begin between twenty-four and forty-eight hours after the user's last dose of the drug. Common symptoms include: stomach cramps, sweating, nausea, extreme cravings, tremors, sneezing, irritability, chills, vomiting, anxiety, paranoia, fuzzy-headedness, clinical depression and hallucinations. Additionally, methadone withdrawal symptoms tend to continue much longer than heroin withdrawal symptoms. Depending on the dose of methadone you have been taking 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 completely stopping all at once.
