Facts

  • Users of Ecstasy will typically feel the effects of the drug in 30-60 minutes after consumption, hitting a peak at approximately 1-1.5 hours, reaching a plateau that lasts about 2-3 hours, followed by a comedown of a few hours, which may be accompanied by fatigue and minor effects.
  • Long term marijuana users will sometimes utilize the drug to escape from problems, ease feelings of anger or frustration, and to get through the day.
  • The THC in hashish interferes with a part of the brain called the cerebellum, which is the section of the brain which controls balance and coordination.
  • One treatment approach that is used for managing opiate withdrawal is to treat the symptoms of the withdrawal with appropriate medication. Clondine, an antihypertensive drug, is sometimes used to reduce muscle pain and cramping.

Adolescents - Westgate, Iowa

As a parent or guardian the thought of enrolling your child into a drug treatment program can be overwhelming and frightening. Sadly, just like adults, adolescents become addicted to drugs and alcohol and need professional treatment in order to stop using. Due to their young age it is not an option for them to attend a traditional drug treatment facility. Many specialized and age appropriate drug rehabilitation centers have been developed to focus on adolescents and their distinct needs pertaining to drug addiction recovery. Substance abuse professionals who are experienced in youth counseling and therapy are able to work with your loved one and guide them through their recovery process.
