Facts

  • The crack high typically wears off within 5 to10 minutes, causing users to feel 'down' or depressed, more than before taking the drug.
  • Someone who freebases cocaine is at risk of being burned by the conversion process because a highly volatile solvent, such as ether, is being used.
  • Methadone users who are pregnant are at risk of premature labor or having a miscarriage if they abruptly stop using the drug, and many women choose to continue using methadone throughout their pregnancy to minimize these risks.
  • Smoking methamphetamine can damage the throat and lungs, but is one of the preferred routes of administration which creates the fastest onset of high.

Gum Spring, VA. - Methadone Detoxification

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and challenging experience. Withdrawal Symptoms usually begin between twenty-four and forty-eight hours after the user's last dose of the drug. Typical withdrawal symptoms include: stomach cramps, nausea, sweating, tremors, extreme opiate cravings, sneezing, irritability, fever, chills, vomiting, 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.
