Facts
- Studies indicate that most individuals who seek treatment and remain in a drug rehab program stop using drugs, decrease their criminal activity, and improve their occupational, social, and psychological functioning.
- The route of administration of a drug, whether intravenous, intramuscular, oral or otherwise, can sometimes play a role in determining the severity of withdrawal symptoms.
- Women who drink heavily are at an increased risk for damage to the heart muscle than men, even for women drinking at lower levels.
- Methadone withdrawal can be even more severe than morphine or heroin withdrawal and can last for several weeks or more.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Any person who is heavily addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit greatly by receiving treatment from a hospital inpatient rehab 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 serious physical addiction problems to drugs or alcohol. Hospital inpatient programs commonly last several days to several weeks. Once the inpatient part of their treatment plan is finished they may choose to participate at a sober living facility or transfer into an outpatient program.
