Interesting Facts and Statistics:

Withdrawal symptoms for most opiates are stronger approximately 24-72 hours after they begin and subside within 7-10 days.

In 2008, there were 722,000 persons aged 12 or older who had used cocaine for the first time within the past 12 months; this averages to approximately 2,000 initiates per day. This estimate was significantly lower than the number in 2007 (906,000). The annual number of cocaine initiates declined from 1.0 million in 2002 to 722,000 in 2008.

Approximately 100 years after cocaine entered into use, a new variation of the substance emerged. This substance, crack, became enormously popular in the mid-1980s due in part to its almost immediate high and the fact that it is inexpensive to produce and buy.

If used intravenously or inhaled/smoked, cocaine?s effects peak in seconds to 2 minutes but last only 15-30 minutes.

Methadone is known for its calming effect that relieves feelings of anxiety and replaces this nervousness with feelings of warmth, relaxation and detachment.

In 2005, an estimated 13.0 percent of persons aged 12 or older drove under the influence of alcohol at least once in the past year. This percentage has dropped since 2002, when it was 14.2 percent. The 2005 estimate corresponds to 31.7 million persons.
