Facts

  • Women are up to three times more likely than men to be prescribed prescription opioids such as Percocet, and twice as likely to form a Percocet addiction.
  • Most specialized drug rehab programs employ counselors, physicians, nurses, and access to social workers to aid in the rehabilitation process.
  • Rapid opiate detoxification to treat opiate withdrawal can be performed in a hospital or private clinic setting using a drug such as Naltrexone, an opiate antagonist that blocks opiate receptors and reverses the effects of opiates. Clonidine is administered at the same time to ease the symptoms of withdrawal.
  • The most dangerous side effect of OxyContin use is respiratory depression which could be fatal especially if the drug is being abused and an overdose occurs.

Hummels Wharf - Residential Long-Term Treatment (More Than 30 Days)

Attending and finishing a residential long-term treatment (more than 30 days) program in Hummels Wharf is often the cornerstone in an addict's successful recovery from their personal struggles with drug or alcohol addiction. This kind of drug rehabilitation is much more intensive than others due to the fact the person lives at the facility full-time during the treatment process. While many addicts are at first hesitant about going to a long-term program lasting longer than 30 days they soon understand the good benefit. A residential long-term treatment (more than 30 days) program supplies the recovering person the time to completely withdrawal from drugs and concentrate on themselves. Shorter programs are not capable of this due to their quick duration.
