Facts

  • PCP's effects can vary from person to person and dose to dose, mainly because of significant variations in amount and composition of active compounds.
  • Opiates such as heroin convert to morphine in the body which then activates opiate receptors located throughout the brain and central nervous system, including within the reward system.
  • Research indicates that amphetamine use during pregnancy may produce adverse behavioral effects, such as hyper-excitability, in offspring.
  • Research indicates that the rate of past year use for LSD among high school seniors was higher than rates of use among ninth, tenth, and eleventh graders combined.

Methadone Detoxification - Nonantum

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and taxing experience. Withdrawal Symptoms usually begin between twenty-four and forty-eight hours after the user's last dose of the drug. Typical withdrawal symptoms include: stomach cramps, sweating, nausea, extreme cravings, tremors, irritability, sneezing, fever, anxiety, fuzzy-headedness, paranoia, hallucinations and clinical depression. Additionally, these unpleasant methadone withdrawal symptoms tend to continue much longer than heroin withdrawal symptoms. Depending on the dose of methadone and how long the person has been using methadone, the symptoms can last for several weeks to several months. Professionals in the field of methadone detoxification typically advise the gradual decrease of the drug over a period of time instead of stopping all at once.
