Facts
- The most commonly abused prescription drugs are opioids such as the pain relievers OxyContin and Vicodin.
- A large part of the lure to prescription drugs is that the prescription comes from a doctor, a reputable source. The drug abuser does not have to find a drug dealer, they just open their parents, grandparents, etc. medicine cabinet and have easy access to some of the most potent and additive drugs on the market.
- One method of OxyContin withdrawal is to treat each individual symptom with a non-opiate medication; this is the most common approach in an inpatient environment. A medication is given for anxiety, another for nausea, another for diarrhea, etc. This OxyContin withdrawal method is less uncomfortable than quitting cold turkey, and is not prolonged through the use of substitute opiate medications.
- In 2008, 14,800 overdose deaths were due to narcotic painkillers. �''
Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Anchor Point, Alaska are typically delivered in a residential or inpatient facility for a duration of 30 days or less. Though long term drug rehab requires at least a 90 day stay and a much more rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work to get the individual rehabilitated through detoxification in conjunction with a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly address emotional addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to truly address all issues which might result in relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be sufficient for those in Anchor Point who have a trueaddiction to drugs and alcohol.
