Facts

  • Marijuana withdrawal produces both physical and psychological withdrawal symptoms, and it can be difficult to overcome the cravings which often results in relapse.
  • Nearly 15% percent of 8th-graders have used inhalants to get high.
  • Symptoms of marijuana withdrawal first appear in chronic users within 24 hours. They are most pronounced for the first 10 days and can last up to 28 days.
  • Sudden cessation of long term use of morphine by long term heavily dependent users may be fatal, although morphine withdrawal is considered to be less dangerous than alcohol withdrawal.

Boston, MA. - Medicare

Substance abuse and addiction affects every race, age and gender. For drug addicted people 65 years or older, Medicare is an option to pay for some if not all of their drug treatment. Medicare insurance may cover the treatment of drug addiction or alcoholism in both outpatient and inpatient settings, as long as certain requirements are met. The addict must receive treatment from a Medicare-participating facility or provider. The patient's doctor notes that the drug or alcohol treatment is medically necessary and that the patient's doctor creates the plan of treatment to be carried out. Additionally, Medicare will only cover a maximum of 190 days in a mental health hospital for the individual's entire lifetime.
