Facts

  • The elderly are admitted to emergency departments and hospitals about as often for alcohol-related causes as for heart attacks.
  • Substance abuse treatment for marijuana addiction was a factor in 17.0 percent of the 1.8 million drug rehab treatment admissions reported to State administrative data systems in 2008.
  • 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.
  • The behavior of alcohol abusers and the consequences of that behavior are better indicators of alcoholism than how often or how much alcohol a person consumes alcohol.

Methadone Detoxification - Pinole

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and taxing experience. Withdrawal 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, vomiting, anxiety, paranoia, fuzzy-headedness, clinical depression and hallucinations. Additionally, methadone withdrawal symptoms tend to continue 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 completely stopping all at once.
