Facts

  • Parents, youth and the general population in the U.S. tend to assume that prescription drugs are less dangerous when abused than illegal drugs due to that fact that they are FDA-approved.
  • Some dangers associated with opiate use include contamination of the drug itself, and many street drugs including opiates often contain toxic additives.
  • The depression so many Ecstasy users complain of after coming down off of the drug is often referred to as the Tuesday Blues or Suicide Tuesday, because of the midweek depression that users often experience after having used the drug on the weekend.
  • The acetaminophen component in Lortab can on its own cause a fatal overdose. High doses of acetaminophen can cause liver damage, and dosages should never exceed 4000 mg a day. Acetaminophen is metabolized solely by the liver, so there is a risk of fatal overdose due to hepatotoxicity when Lortab is mixed with alcohol.

Painted Post, New York - Methadone Detoxification

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and challenging experience. 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, sneezing, irritability, chills, anxiety, paranoia, fuzzy-headedness, clinical depression and hallucinations. Additionally, methadone withdrawal symptoms will last 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.
