The ongoing creation by major international drug companies of expanded markets and new markets for antidepressants include new "alleged diseases" such as "social anxiety disorder" for which Paxil is being promoted heavily in advertising; Prozac as Serafem to treat "mood imbalances associated with premenstrual syndrome" and since Prozac has gone off patent, the drug manufacturer, Eli Lilly has received approval to market an once-weekly version of the drug (based on its "new coating").
- While only 2% of the prescriptions written for painkillers are for methadone, 30% of the prescription painkiller deaths involve methadone.
It is not uncommon for drug rehabilitation centers in False Pass, AK. to offer their clients payment help, for those who may not be able to cover a portion of or all of the costs associated with rehabilitation. The amount of payment help that is given is often based on each client's income and household status. Payment help can sometimes be offered in the form of government grants which are used to subsidize the operation of the particular drug or alcohol treatment center the individual is wanting to receive treatment at. Other payment help provided by some drug rehab centers in False Pass is known as a sliding fee scale, which is a lower fee arranged based off income and other factors. To learn more about what forms of payment help are offered it is best to speak with a treatment counselor who can review each individual's situation on a case by case basis and help those in need to apply for payment help when necessary so that they can get started in life saving treatment.
