Facts
- The acetaminophen component in Lortab can on its own cause a fatal overdose. High doses of acetaminophen can cause liver damage, and dosages should never exceed 4000 mg a day. Acetaminophen is metabolized solely by the liver, so there is a risk of fatal overdose due to hepatotoxicity when Lortab is mixed with alcohol.
- Unintentional deaths involving prescription opioids such as Lortab increased 114% from 2001 to 2005, and there were 42,491 hydrocodone (such as that contained in Lortab) combination emergency room visits in 2004.
- Doctors argue whether the withdrawal syndrome leaves individuals who take sleeping medication worse than they would be without the drug, but evidence suggests that it often does.
- Alcohol withdrawal syndrome is likely to occur within a week, but usually occurs within 24 hours of the individual's last drink.
Persons with Co-Occurring Mental and Substance Abuse Disorders - Spirit Lake, IowaMany rehab programs in Spirit Lake, Iowa address persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders. A person who struggles with a mental disorder(s) and substance abuse needs to work through both issues concurrently. Failing to tackle the client's mental disorder(s) during their drug rehabilitation will leave them susceptible to relapse once they leave treatment. Difficulties with mood disorders, anxiety disorders and other psychiatric disorders (schizophrenia, personality disorders, etc.) will come up once back in their day to day life. If the individual does not have a handle on how to control their mental disorder they will probably fall back into their old ways of abusing drugs or alcohol as a means of coping and self-medicating.
