Drug Addiction Facts

  • When cocaine and alcohol are used together the human liver manufactures a third substance, cocaethylene, which intensifies cocaine's euphoric effects, while possibly increasing the risk of sudden death.
  • A 2010 study conducted by Colorado University on 300 adolescents diagnosed with ADHD found that the symptoms of the 150 patients that were administered cognitive-behavioral therapy along with an inactive sugar pill disappeared just as effectively as the 150 adolescents who were given both the therapy and a chemically active Ritalin-type drug.
  • When Fentanyl is administered it rapidly crosses the blood-brain barrier, and when this occurs it produced not only pain relief but also produces sedation and varying levels of respiratory depression, as well as nausea, and vomiting in some cases.

Outpatient

Even though this might seem ideal it will not provide the required change of environment than lots of people in rehab have to have to have a productive rehab.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse disorders are what are known in the field of drug rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must address both disorders whilst in treatment in order to find resolution simply because one typically exacerbates the other. Luckily, there are many drug rehabilitation programs that can specifically hone in on the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use issues face to enable them to not only become sober but mentally secure and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never feel the need to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Seniors/Older Adults

So for seniors and older adults, it is wise to choose a rehab which is familiar with helping seniors and older adults deal with the unique life and substance abuse issues that these clients face which may include a wider spectrum of solutions including health care and the like.
