Facts

  • Studies indicate that drinkers who are able to handle a lot of alcohol in one drinking episode are at higher risk of developing alcohol dependence.
  • Withdrawal symptoms associated with Xanax are somewhat similar to those that are related to alcohol withdrawal, such as shaky hands, rapid heartbeat, insomnia, sweating and anxiety and agitation.
  • 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.
  • Methadone withdrawal symptoms are similar to the worst case of the flu, but only ten times worse.
