Facts
- The withdrawal symptoms associated with amphetamines are magnified in chronic users who abruptly stop taking the drug, which is why it is recommended that individuals addicted to these drugs participate in a residential drug treatment program specializing in this type of withdrawal and addiction treatment.
- Long-time crack users often alienate family and friends, as they tend to become isolated and suspicious.
- Prescription opiate abuse, especially oxycodone and hydrocodone, has become a serious problem.
- Men are inclined to consume alcohol in larger amounts than women. Although women absorb more alcohol, and take longer to break it down and remove it from their bodies.

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and challenging experience. 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, fever, vomiting, paranoia, fuzzy-headedness, clinical depression and hallucinations. Additionally, these unpleasant 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 completely stopping all at once.
