Facts

  • Street heroin may contain additives that won't dissolve, which can result in clogged blood vessels which lead to the lungs, liver, kidneys, or brain. This can cause infection or even death of small patches of cells in vital organs.
  • Studies indicate that as much as half of the dopamine-producing cells in the brain can be damaged by prolonged exposure to relatively low levels of methamphetamine.
  • The average lethal dose of cocaine either by injection or inhalation is about 750-800 mg.
  • The morning after an alcohol binge, the body's organs try to make up for their own water loss by taking it from the brain causing the brain to decrease in size and pull on the membranes that connect the brain to the skull, resulting in pain.

Patterson, GA. - Hospital Inpatient

A person who is seriously addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit tremendously by attending a hospital inpatient program. These types of programs are geared 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 person attempting recovery needs this level of care, it is beneficial to those who have severe physical addiction problems to drugs or alcohol. Hospital inpatient programs commonly last several days to several weeks. Once the hospital inpatient part of their treatment plan is complete they may choose to participate at a sober living setting or transfer into an outpatient program.
