Drug Addiction Facts

  • Deaths have occurred after snorting a single line of cocaine in recreational use where the average dose of 1 line is 20 mg.
  • Krokodil is a generally new and emerging drug, and is a homemade opioid that is made by combining codeine tablets with various toxic chemicals including lighter fluid and industrial cleaners. Krokodil is being used as a cheap heroin substitute, and is mainly found in poor rural areas of Russia, but has recently been featured in news reports alleging its appearance in parts of the United States.
  • Studies indicate that cocaine may have a direct effect on blood vessels in the brain, causing them to go into spasm and narrow, resulting in a decrease of blood to the brain, and may even cause inflammation in the blood vessels of the brain and cause stroke.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions with regards to intensity of care, for the reason that individual is able to keep their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of having to stay in a rehabilitation facility while receiving rehabilitation services. Even if this may seem ideal it might not provide the much needed change of environment than many individuals in treatment require to have a successful rehab.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation programs accept Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present another form of private health care insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of programs, and in this case individuals may choose to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they can to cover a more quality rehab facility which will get better results, such as a long-term residential drug rehabilitation center.
