Interesting Facts and Statistics:

Among pregnant women aged 15 to 44 years, 4.0 percent reported using illegal drugs in the past month based on combined 2005 and 2006 NSDUH data. This rate was significantly lower than the rate among women aged 15 to 44 who were not pregnant (10.0 percent). The 2003 2004 combined rate of current illegal drug use among pregnant women (4.6 percent) was not significantly different from the 2005 2006 combined rate.

Drug abuse side effects from legal and illegal drugs can range from mild symptoms to comas and even death. In addition to the physical side effects that are related to substance abuse, there are many psychological side effects of drug abuse, the most serious symptoms being drug addiction and overdose.

There are approximately 2.5 million opiate users over the age of 12 in the United States.

Opiates can be taken by mouth, smoked, or snorted, although addicts often prefer intravenous injection, which gives the strongest, quickest pleasure.

The number of persons needing but not receiving specialty treatment in the past year for an illegal drug use problem in 2005 (6.3 million) was essentially the same as the estimates in 2002 (6.3 million) and 2003 (6.2 million) and also was not statistically different from the estimate in 2004 (6.6 million). The number of persons needing treatment for illegal drug use in 2005 (7.6 million) was similar to the number needing treatment in 2004 (8.1 million), 2003 (7.3 million), and 2002 (7.7 million).

Heroin wears off quickly, usually only after a couple of hours, thus requiring several hits of the drug each day. Alternatively, Methadone can last anywhere more than 24 hours, depending on the dosage and on your individual metabolism.
