Drug Addiction Facts

  • The risk for stroke associated with cocaine use is much higher than with other stroke risk factors, such as diabetes, high blood pressure or smoking due to the fact that cocaine use can result in the constriction of blood vessels, increased heart rate, body temperature and blood pressure, and decreased oxygen supply to the brain.
  • In 2009, marijuana alone or in combination with another drug or alcohol was involved in over 376,000 emergency department visits in the United States.
  • Like heroin, morphine, and other opioid drugs, fentanyl binds to opioid receptors which are highly concentrated in areas of the brain that control pain and emotions.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation programs accept Medicaid if the individual is not able to self pay or present some other kind of private health insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of centers, and in this case individuals may want to investigate the self pay option and come up with up any resources they're able to to pay for a more quality rehabilitation center which will produce better results, such as a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation center.
