Facts

  • When heroin is sniffed or smoked, peak effects of the drug kick in after about 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Withdrawal symptoms associated with methadone can include but are not limited to body aches and muscle cramping, back aches, leg kicking, anxiety, chills, shivering or trembling, abdominal cramping, weakness, increased blood pressure, convulsions, insomnia, diarrhea, running nose, watery eyes, sneezing, sweating, pale and clammy skin, nausea and thoughts of suicide.
  • The Drug Abuse Warning Network lists opiates among the four most frequently mentioned drugs reported in drug-related death cases.
  • Rapid opiate detoxification to treat opiate withdrawal can be performed in a hospital or private clinic setting using a drug such as Naltrexone, an opiate antagonist that blocks opiate receptors and reverses the effects of opiates. Clonidine is administered at the same time to ease the symptoms of withdrawal.

Adolescents - Middlesex

As a parent or guardian the thought of enrolling your child into a drug rehabilitation program can be overwhelming and frightening. Sadly, just like adults, adolescents become addicted to drugs and alcohol and need professional help in order to stop using. Due to their young age it is not an option for them to attend an adult drug rehab. Many specialized and age appropriate drug rehabilitation centers have been developed to focus on adolescents and their distinct needs pertaining to substance abuse recovery. Substance abuse professionals who are skilled in youth counseling and therapy are able to work with your child and guide them through their recovery process.
