Drug Addiction Facts

  • In Texas, the average age of those dying from heroin overdoses dropped from 40 to 36 in just five years.
  • All stimulants, whether prescription or illicit such as methamphetamine, work by increasing dopamine levels in the brain; dopamine is a brain chemical which has to do with pleasure, movement, and attention. This is what produces a high when abused.
  • Like heroin, morphine, and other opioid drugs, fentanyl binds to opioid receptors which are highly concentrated in areas of the brain that control pain and emotions.
