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.
- About three out of four prescription drug overdoses in the U.S. are caused by prescription opioid pain relievers.
- Of the 1 million emergency department visits in 2009 due to prescription drug abuse, CNS depressants (anxiolytics, sedatives, and hypnotics) were involved in 363,000 visits.
- The National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University found that teens who abuse prescription drugs are twice as likely to use alcohol, five times more likely to use marijuana, and twelve to twenty times more likely to use illegal street drugs such as heroin, Ecstasy and cocaine than their peers who do not abuse prescription drugs.
Detoxification services are accessible for addicted individuals in Chuckey who need help coming off of drugs, which is often very challenging when the person has become physically and/or psychologically addicted to a drug or to alcohol. One of the main reasons individuals find it hard to quit using drugs is because of the discomfort they will need to endure to detox on their own. Many physical and psychological discomforts come with this process because the body begins to go through drug and/or alcohol withdrawal, the symptoms of which can range from flu like symptoms to severe depression and anxiety. In a professional Chuckey detox facility, detoxification services help the person undergo this process as safely as possible and provide the needed emotional assistance to get the person through detox without relapsing. Detoxification services are not drug rehabilitation, but merely the first step of a comprehensive drug rehab program that will further address fundamental addiction issues so that the person can achieve long term sobriety.
