Facts

  • Smoking freebase cocaine creates a more powerful effect more rapidly, but it is also more dangerous because the safe dose can easily be exceeded.
  • 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.
  • When Dilaudid is injected individuals instantly feel warm and heavy and typically experience dry mouth followed by a stupor which may be accompanied by restlessness, nausea, and vomiting.
  • Individuals who overcome withdrawal but do not seek drug treatment are likely to relapse back into drug use, making the recurrence of withdrawal syndrome high.
