Facts
- The 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health shows that among people age 12 or older who reported using pain relievers non-medically in the past year, 70 percent got the drugs from a friend or relative (either for free, purchased, or by theft).
- States with high rates of nonmedical use of prescription pain relievers tend to have more deaths from drug overdoses.
- The majority of prescription drugs for nonmedical use are obtained for free from a friend or relative (60%), purchased from a friend
- Opioid prescription drugs which are commonly abused include hydrocodone (Vicodin), oxycodone (OxyContin), oxymorphone (Opana), propoxyphene (Darvon), hydromorphone (Dilaudid), meperidine (Demerol) and diphenoxylate (Lomotil).
Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Gibsonia are typically delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a period of 30 days or less. Though long term drug rehab typically demands at least a 90 day stay and a lot more demanding course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work to get the individual abstinent through detox in conjunction with a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with addiction issues. Because it usually takes several weeks if not months to fully address all issues which may hang the person up and result in relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be recommended for those in Gibsonia who have a long termaddiction to drugs and alcohol.
