Facts

  • Relapsing back into drug use after taking part in a drug rehab program is possible, with relapse rates similar to those for other chronic medical illnesses such as diabetes, hypertension, and asthma that also have both physiological and behavioral components.
  • Long-term methamphetamine use can lead to mood disturbances, violent behavior, anxiety, confusion, insomnia, and severe dental problems.
  • Research indicates that a person's drinking pattern remains relatively stable with age, perhaps reflecting societal norms that prevailed when the person began consuming alcohol.
  • Propellant in canned air when inhaled can fill the lungs completely and leave no room for oxygen, which can cause death.

Merrimac - Pregnant/Postpartum Women

Today, there are drug treatment centers that are designed to focus on specific drug addicted groups such as pregnant/postpartum women. These rehab programs are specifically tailored to the needs of their clients and they address specific issues that are unique just to them. Treatment facilities for pregnant/postpartum women commonly offer individualized programs that incorporate a fair amount of flexibility into their treatment schedule. This ensures that the client's specific needs are met while maintaining close medical supervision. Many life skills and coping skills are also integrated into programs designed for pregnant/postpartum women. The most effective pregnant/postpartum treatment centers have integrated "household" chores (cleaning, cooking, etc.) into their curriculum so that taking care of their babies and small children goes more smoothly once they leave treatment.
