Facts
- Typical physical symptoms of drug withdrawal include changes in body temperature, fever, excessive sweating, abdominal pain and nausea and vomiting.
- Opiates can make a person feel nauseous, even someone who has been given opiates by a doctor which is one of the reasons many people don't like taking them.
- Therapeutic Communities are drug rehabs which have proven to be successful in treating individuals with special needs, including adolescents, women, homeless individuals, people with severe mental disorders, and individuals in the criminal justice system.
- Prescription narcotics such as Lortab are often not perceived as dangerous as illicit street drugs, and don't carry the same stigma as illicit opiates like heroin, a primary reason it is abused.
Medicare - MekoryukSubstance abuse and addiction affects every age, race and gender. For substance abusers that are 65 years or older, Medicare may be an option to pay for some if not all of their drug rehabilitation. Medicare insurance may pay for the treatment of drug addiction or alcoholism in both outpatient and inpatient settings, as long as certain requirements are met. The addict must obtain services from a Medicare-participating facility or provider. The patient's doctor notes that the drug or alcohol treatment is medically necessary and that the patient's doctor provides a specific recommended treatment plan. Also, Medicare will only cover a total of 190 days in a psychiatric hospital for the individual's entire lifetime.
