Facts
- When a person abuses prescription drugs they may do so by a different route of administration. While a majority of prescription drugs come in pill or capsule form, some users will crush the pill/capsule then swallow the powder, sniff the powder or "cook" it by turning it to liquid and then injecting it.
- In 2008, Kentucky experienced 17.9 prescription drug overdose deaths per 100,000 people.
- Opioids and morphine derivatives are known to cause pain relief, euphoria, drowsiness, sedation, weakness, dizziness, nausea, impaired coordination, confusion, dry mouth, itching, sweating, clammy skin, constipation/slowed or arrested breathing, lowered pulse and blood pressure, tolerance, addiction, unconsciousness, coma, death; risk of death increased when combined with alcohol or other CNS depressants.
- Numerous OxyContin overdose deaths occur because the person does not realize how much they have taken. They underestimate the amount they consumed and in doing so grossly exceed a safe dosage.
Inpatient hospitalization programs in Blue, AZ. are a type of drug treatment program which offers treatment in a hospital or similar setting where the rehabilitation process can be overseen by medical staff and treatment professionals.
