Facts
- When Ambien is taken without a prescription for recreational use with the intention of getting high, people may take the drug orally, crush and snort it, or cook it for an intravenous injection.
- There are different stages of drug and alcohol withdrawal. The individual person will start to feel worse and worse, hit a plateau, and then withdrawal symptoms begin to dissipate.
- Opiate addicted individuals need higher and higher amounts of opiates in order to prevent withdrawal symptoms and to maintain their feelings of euphoria.
- Vicodin overdose can be fatal or result in permanent brain damage if treatment is delayed and a large amount of the drug has been taken, so it is important that individuals get help immediately if it is suspected that they have overdosed.
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 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 requires this level of care, it is beneficial to those who have serious physical addiction problems to drugs or alcohol. Hospital inpatient programs often last several days to even up to a month. Once the inpatient part of their recovery is finished they may choose to enter a sober living setting or transfer into an outpatient program.
