Facts

  • Use of methamphetamine often results in mental confusion which can impair one's ability to take medications that have been prescribed for HIV infection or other conditions, worsening the illness and outcome of the illness.
  • Women have less water in their bodies than men, so after a man and woman of the same weight drink the same amount of alcohol, the woman's blood alcohol concentration will most likely be higher.
  • Methadone used in opiate maintenance therapy was originally developed to help obliterate withdrawal symptoms and support a healthy lifestyle. However, the effects of withdrawal far exceed that of heroin which causes the individual to become addicted to it instead.
  • Methamphetamine can suppress appetite, to the point of complete malnourishment and dehydration.
