Facts

  • Opiates which also have legitimate use in medicine but are commonly abused include morphine, meperidine, paregoric (which contains opium), and cough syrups that contain codeine.
  • 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.
  • PCP may contain contaminants and be impure, causing the color to range from tan to brown, and the consistency to range from powder to a gummy mass.
  • The strongest predictors of adolescent marijuana use are the individual's beliefs and values regarding the use of marijuana and association with marijuana-using peers.
