Drug Addiction Facts

  • The first step in inpatient drug rehabilitation usually is supervised detox; after that, more-structured treatments, like psychiatric consultation, and in some cases medication management, are administered.
  • When prescription stimulants are abused even after a short period of time, withdrawal symptoms can result upon abrupt cessation including fatigue, depression, and disturbed sleep patterns.
  • Former and current heroin users describe the horrors of heroin addiction withdrawal as being far less painful and difficult than methadone withdrawal.
