Facts

  • The human liver combines cocaine and alcohol to produce a third substance, cocaethylene, which intensifies the effects of the drug. Cocaethylene is associated with a greater risk of sudden death than just crack cocaine.
  • Percocet addicted individuals will eventually find that they need to use the drug to feel normal, and will exhibit drug-seeking behavior and often become preoccupied with thoughts about using and obtaining the drug.
  • Use of barbiturates decreases REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, during which dreaming takes place, and therefore withdrawal often results in sleep disruptions such as nightmares, insomnia, or vivid dreaming.
  • Methadone's life threatening side effects have occurred even in patients that were just starting to use methadone for pain control, and have also been observed in patients who have switched to methadone after being treated for pain with other strong narcotic pain relievers.
