Drug Addiction Facts

  • Ecstasy causes many of its effects by releasing large amounts of the brain's reward chemical serotonin, after which the brain becomes significantly depleted of this important chemical which then causes negative behavioral aftereffects that users often experience for several days after taking the drug.
  • Intramuscular heroin injection produces a slightly slower onset of heroin's euphoric feeling, taking approximately 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Fentanyl patches can also be abused by freezing the contents, cutting this into pieces and placing it under the tongue or in the cheek cavity for oral absorption.

Medicaid

Some treatment facilities will take Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present another form of private health care insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of centers, and in this case individuals may choose to explore the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality rehabilitation center which will get better results, like a long-term residential alcohol and drug treatment center.
