Facts
- Most pregnant women completely eliminate their alcohol use, although most of their husbands continue drinking.
- Liquid GHB is readily available in nightclubs across the United States, where users experience effects similar to that of Rohypnol or roofies (another date rape drug).
- Short-acting prescription opioids cause a more severe and abrupt drug withdrawal because blood levels of the medication go up rapidly and come down rapidly.
- Fevers associated with drug withdrawal must be closely monitored to make sure that they are not the result of an underlying infection, which should be treated immediately.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
An individual who is heavily addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit tremendously by receiving treatment from a hospital inpatient program. These types of programs are focused towards physical health, mental health and medical stabilization. Recovering persons will have access to medication as well as medical staff around the clock. While not every drug addict needs this level of care, it is helpful to those who have serious physical addiction problems to drugs or alcohol. Hospital inpatient programs commonly last several days to even up to a month. Once the inpatient part of their recovery is complete they may choose to participate at a sober living program or transfer into an outpatient program.
