Facts
- A few areas in the U.S. that include military bases and VA hospitals have experienced large increases in prescription painkiller use because of soldier patients injured in the Middle East.
- By law, when a physician prescribes drugs for a patient, the physician is required to ensure that the patient is fully informed of the drugs risks and benefits and consents to the drug therapy with full informed knowledge. Statistics show that this occurs in less than 20% of the patient population.
- While a person who abuses prescription drugs expects specific effects to take place they may not anticipate the side effects of the drug they have taken. If they take OxyContin they know it will stop any pain and create a sense of euphoria. They may not factor in that it also causes extreme drowsiness and slows their breathing; possibility to the point of death.
- Generally speaking you should never attempt to stop taking prescription drugs on your own as the withdrawal process can be complicated and possibly dangerous. Rather, withdrawal should take place in a hospital or other safe place under a physician's care.
It is not unusual for drug or alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Watson, Illinois to offer their clients payment help, for those people who are not able to cover a portion of or all of the costs associated with rehab. How much payment help that is offered is usually based on each client's financial 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 rehabilitation center the individual is wanting to receive treatment at. Other payment help offered at drug rehabilitation programs in Watson, IL. is known as a sliding fee scale, which is a lower fee arranged based off income and other factors. To find out about what kinds of payment help are available it is best to consult with a treatment counselor who can review each individual's circumstances on a case by case basis and help those in need to arrange for payment help when necessary so that they can get started in life saving recovery.
