Facts
- The recent popularity and mainstream use of highly hallucinogenic potentially fatal drugs which are being sold as "Bath Salts" have law enforcement and drug enforcement experts extremely concerned.
- The short and long term effects of Bath Salts are still unknown due to the fact that these synthetic drugs are new and have not yet been tested for human consumption.
- Opiates act directly on the respiratory center in the brainstem, causing a slow in activity resulting in a decrease in breathing rate.
- Drug craving and depression that an individual experiences during crack withdrawal can last for months following cessation of long-term heavy use of the drug.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Individuals who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want help will first go through detoxification before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is simply the process of the drug being eradicated from one's system, which is often uncomfortable and may hold risks if not carried out in a setting which can provide appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detox services are provided at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug rehab facility which can correctly oversee and supply medical supervision for men and women who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services generally include insuring the individual is as comfortable as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, supplying proper nutrition and ensuring the person is getting proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as necessary to make the detoxification process as smooth and safe as possible. The individual in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some kind of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detoxification facility or drug rehabilitation facility which can provide detox services, the person will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to guarantee that any complications are resolved as rapidly and safely as possible.
