Facts

  • 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.
  • Studies indicate that stimulation of opiate receptors as a result of opiate use results in feelings of reward, and activation of the pleasure circuit by causing greater amounts of dopamine to be released within the brain.
  • Over-the-counter analgesics such as Advil, Ibuprofen, Aspirin, Tylenol and some prescription medications can cause headaches for long periods of time as part of typical withdrawal syndrome after cessation of use.
  • PCP is often added is to as LSD or methamphetamine, and sometimes users are unaware of this and may take a lethal dose.
