Facts
- In 2008, Maine experienced 12.3 prescription drug overdose deaths per 100,000 people.
- According to the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University, 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 teens who do not abuse prescription drugs.
- Nearly 7 million Americans are abusing prescription drugs - more than the number who are abusing cocaine, heroin, hallucinogens, Ecstasy, and inhalants, combined. That 7 million was just 3.8 million in 2000, an 80 percent increase in just 6 years.
- Prescription drug abuse is when a person takes a medication that was prescribed for someone else or takes their own prescription in a manner or dosage different than what was prescribed.
Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Pomeroy, WA. are typically delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a duration of 30 days or less. Though long term drug treatment requires at least a 90 day stay and a lot more rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the addicted person abstinent through detoxification in conjunction with a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to completely address all issues which may hang the person up and result in relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be adequate for those in Pomeroy, WA. who have a long termdependence and addiction to drugs.
