Facts

  • The estimated number of lifetime non-medical users of prescription pain relievers increased significantly from 29.6 million in 2002 to 31.8 million in 2004.
  • There have been several deaths caused by PMA, a potent and highly neurotoxic hallucinogenic amphetamine, which is solicited and sold as Ecstasy.
  • 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.
  • Anxiety symptoms caused by sleeping pill withdrawal might develop somewhat later in the day with the medications Restoril or ProSom, because of the longer half-life.

Paoli - Detoxification

Men and women who are physically dependent to drugs or alcohol and want assistance will first go through detox before receiving other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is simply the procedure of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is typically uncomfortable and may carry risks if not conducted in a setting which can offer appropriate support and medical intervention as required. Detoxification services are supplied at either a professional drug or alcohol detox facility or a drug rehabilitation facility which can correctly oversee and supply medical supervision for persons who are just coming off of drugs. Detox services often include insuring the client is as comfortable as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, providing proper nutrition and ensuring the person is getting proper rest, and providing supplements and medicine as necessary to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The particular person in detox will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some form of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detoxification facility or drug treatment facility which can offer detox services, the individual will have detoxification staff at their disposal around the clock to guarantee that any issues are resolved as swiftly and safely as possible.
