- The cost of prescription drug abuse and misuse to society and U.S. healthcare costs is estimated by The National Community Pharmacists Association as $100 billion.
- When a person develops a dependency to the prescription drug OxyContin it is both physical and psychological. They begin to think that they need the medication just to feel "normal."
- In 2007, Purdue Pharma pleaded guilty in a Virginia federal court to charges that they misrepresented OxyContin. They had stated that the drug did not create euphoria, and that people taking the drug at low doses could stop taking it suddenly, without symptoms of withdrawal.
- Misuse of the prescription drug Codeine will lead to an apathetic, dulling-type effect, a lack of co-ordination and dulled responses.
Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Anvik, AK. are typically delivered in a residential or inpatient facility for a period of 30 days or less. While long term drug treatment 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 addicted person abstinent through detox followed by a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly address addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to truly address all issues which might hang the person up and trigger relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be recommended for those in Anvik, AK. who have a seriousaddiction to drugs and alcohol.
