Facts

  • The intensity and duration of opiate withdrawal varies greatly depending on the dose and speed of withdrawal. Short-acting opiates, such as heroin, tend to produce more intense but briefer symptoms.
  • Large amounts of opiates, like heroin, can cause the respiration to shut down completely.
  • Studies suggest that as little as a single dose of morphine could contribute to addiction.
  • Long-term use of OxyContin often results in tolerance to the drug, causing the user to take higher doses to achieve the same initial effects. This can happen through both legitimate and illicit use of the drug.

Violet, LA. - Partial Hospitalization-Day Treatment

For those not needing the intensive care that inpatient drug treatment in Violet, LA. supplies but still in need of more attention than an outpatient program, partial hospitalization / day treatment is a very good option.
