Facts
- Drug abuse experts predict that Opana (oxymorphone) is the next big prescription drug that will be widely abused.
- In 2008, Nevada experienced 19.6 prescription drug overdose deaths per 100,000 people.
- Prescription drugs can be a lucrative business, selling on the street for as much as 10 times what they are worth retail. An 80 mg OxyContin pill, for example, costs about $6 at a pharmacy and sells for $65 to $80 on the street.
- The 2009 National Survey on Drug Use and Health shows that among people age 12 or older who reported using pain relievers non-medically in the past year, 70 percent got the drugs from a friend or relative (either for free, purchased, or by theft).
Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Pomfret are typically delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a time period of 30 days or less. Though long term drug rehabilitation typically demands at least a 90 day stay and a much more demanding course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work to get the addicted person rehabilitated through detox followed by a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to fully address all issues which could 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 sufficient for those in Pomfret, Maryland who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
