Facts

  • Methamphetamine is similar in structure to the brain chemical dopamine, the brain's pleasure transmitter, which is what causes neurons to release large amounts of dopamine which produce a high.
  • The largest increases in prescription drug related emergency room visits between 2004 and 2009 were for oxycodone products (242.2 percent increase), alprazolam (148.3 percent increase), and hydrocodone products (124.5 percent).
  • Local and regional law enforcement officials cite that immediate release oxycodone is the drug of choice for pill mills who prescribe prescription opioids willy-nilly to prescription drug addicts.
  • Opiate addicted individuals who do not receive regular doses of opiates begin going through withdrawal, which is a very painful process.

Adolescents - Temple, PA.

As a parent or caregiver the thought of enrolling your child into a drug treatment center is often an overwhelming task. Sadly, just like adults, adolescents become addicted to drugs and alcohol and need professional help in order to stop using. Due to their young age it is not an option for them to attend an adult drug rehab. Many specialized and age appropriate drug addiction treatment programs have been developed to focus on adolescents and their specific needs pertaining to drug addiction rehabilitation. Treatment professionals who are trained in youth counseling and therapy are able to work with your adolescent child and guide them through their recovery process.
