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.
- When combined, alcohol and tobacco drastically increase one's risk of becoming ill with certain cancers.
- The THC in hashish interferes with learning and memory processes because of its effects on the hippocampus, a part of the brain which is critical for certain types of learning.
- The high prevalence of alcohol consumption in nursing homes indicates a trend toward using nursing homes for short-term alcoholism rehabilitation stays.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Any person who is severely addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit greatly by attending a hospital inpatient rehab program. These types of programs are focused towards physical health, mental health and medical stabilization. Recovering persons will have access to medication as well as medical staff around the clock. While not every person attempting recovery needs this level of care, it is useful to those who have severe physical addiction problems to drugs or alcohol. Hospital inpatient programs often last several days to several weeks. Once the inpatient part of their recovery is finished they may choose to participate at a sober living program or transfer into an outpatient program.
