Facts

  • Intramuscular heroin injection produces a slower onset of effects, taking several minutes to feel the intense rush users experience.
  • Smoking crack sends large quantities of the drug to the lungs, which creates an immediate and intense euphoric effect.
  • A recent study reported that 30% of babies whose mother had taken the antidepressant drug Zoloft while pregnant were born with withdrawal syndrome.
  • Methadone used in opiate maintenance therapy was originally developed to help obliterate withdrawal symptoms and support a healthy lifestyle. However, the effects of withdrawal far exceed that of heroin which causes the individual to become addicted to it instead.

Pulaski, Iowa - Hospital Inpatient

Any person who is severely addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit greatly by attending 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 person attempting recovery needs this level of care, it is helpful 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 enter a sober living setting or transfer into an outpatient program.
