Drug Addiction Facts

  • Animal studies indicate that animals will work more persistently at pressing a bar for cocaine than for any other drug, including opiates. In one example, one monkey test subject pressed the bar 12,800 times until it got a single dose of cocaine. If the animal survives in such studies, it will return to the task of obtaining more cocaine.
  • There is concern among pediatricians that using prescription stimulants on children may affect their development, and it is still unknown how these drugs biologically affect the developing brain.
  • Fentanyl oral lozenges and injectables are also commonly diverted and abused.

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in several settings along with various rehab lengths and plans to accommodate the varying needs of clients with any sort of and level of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential centers now being included in many insurance plans, there is no need to put off receiving substance abuse treatment services for anybody who needs it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services in terms of intensity of care, because the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to remain in a rehabilitation center while receiving rehabilitation services. Even if this may seem perfect it will not provide the much needed change of environment than a lot of people in treatment have to have to have a successful rehabilitation.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)

Many alcohol and drug rehab programs provide payment assistance to help clients who may not have adequate money to self pay for rehabilitation or whose medical insurance won't supply coverage or full coverage for his or her stay. By way of example, Sometimes insurance only pays for a short-term program when in reality a long-term center is going to be the more suitable choice. To see what payment assistance might be available, say for example a sliding fee scale, check with the program for details.
