Facts

  • Methamphetamine use causes increased wakefulness and physical activity, rapid heart rate, irregular heartbeat, and increased blood pressure and body temperature.
  • Individuals who take methadone will typically begin experiencing withdrawal symptoms three to four days after the last dose.
  • The kidneys and lungs remove about 10% of the alcohol in the urine and breath, making the breathalyzer test a valid tool to measure a person's blood alcohol level.
  • Some of the worst prescription drug withdrawal symptoms documented are from the drug Cymbalta, which are sometimes referred to as "nightmare-ish" due to their intensity and prevalence.

Essington - Military Insurance (e.g., VA, TRICARE)

There are several ways to get part or all of your drug treatment paid for. For those who have military insurance (e.g., VA, TRICARE) you will need to contact your provider directly to see exactly what you are eligible for. While both parts of TriCare (TriCare Standard and TriCare Extra) cover drug rehabilitation, only some VA benefits cover the expense of substance abuse treatment. Once you have spoken with your military insurance representative (e.g., VA, TRICARE) and fully understand what exactly they will cover regarding addiction treatment you can begin researching drug treatment centers. Be sure to speak to the billing department of the drug rehab to make sure that they accept your military insurance (e.g., VA, TRICARE). You will want to have a full understanding of what your part (if any) of the program costs you will be responsible for before you enroll into the program.
