Facts

  • Vicodin overdoses can occur for a variety of reasons and under different circumstances, such as someone taking too much Vicodin accidentally because they are not getting pain relief from their normal dose.
  • Risks associated with Ativan withdrawal including grand mal seizures and death show that use of the drug should be discontinued very slowly with medical supervision and over a prolonged period of time.
  • Most methadone clinics don't take an individual completely off the drug and actually work to stabilize them at a certain dose for an indefinite amount of time which leaves them dependent to methadone.
  • Opiate addicted individuals often cannot hold jobs and may even be involved in crime to pay for their addiction.

Methadone Detoxification - Lackey

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and taxing experience. 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, sweating, nausea, extreme cravings, tremors, sneezing, irritability, fever, anxiety, paranoia, fuzzy-headedness, clinical depression and hallucinations. Additionally, methadone withdrawal symptoms will last 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.
