On the other hand we have learned a great deal about the nature of drug addiction on an individual level and how to treat a person afflicted with the malady. Today, there are many different treatment options for a person that has developed a drug addiction problem. How do you know if a person has a drug addiction problem? It is a simple test. When faced with serious negative consequences, brought about by their drug they continue to use. These serious negative consequences of their drug use may be, loss of employment, legal issues, marital problems, abusing or neglecting their children and in spite of these consequences brought on by their drug use they will continue to use. A person in the throes of drug addiction will promise to stop and mend their ways yet continue to use and manifest the same unacceptable behavior associated with drug addiction.

  • Facts
  • Ecstasy is available as a powder and is sometimes snorted and occasionally smoked but rarely injected.
  • When cocaine and alcohol are ingested simultaneously, the liver manufactures a third substance, which is known as cocaethylene; this third substance intensifies cocaine's euphoric effects and can possibly increase the risk of sudden death in the individual.
  • For those trying to kick an addiction to crack cocaine, there are specific medical treatments available to help reduce withdrawal symptoms from professional rehabilitation facilities that specialize in the treatment of addiction.
  • The concentration levels in many forms of GHB vary so much that there is no way that an user can know what dose of the substance that they are actually consuming.
