Interesting Facts and Statistics:

Withdrawal symptoms associated with OxyContin include restlessness, muscle and bone pain, insomnia, diarrhea, vomiting, cold flashes, and involuntary leg movements.

The rate of current marijuana use among teens aged 12 to 17 decreased from 8.2 percent in 2002 to 6.7 percent in 2006 and remained unchanged at 6.7 percent in 2007 and 2008.

There were 9.0 million people aged 12 or older (3.7 percent) who were current users of illegal drugs other than marijuana in 2005. Most (6.4 million, 2.6 percent) used psychotherapeutic drugs nonmedically. Of these, 4.7 million used pain relievers, 1.8 million used tranquilizers, 1.1 million used stimulants (including 512,000 using methamphetamine), and 272,000 used sedatives. Each of these estimates is similar to the corresponding estimate for 2004.

Pain reliever incidence has been increasing since the mid-1980s when there were approximately 400,000 initiates annually. The number of initiates reached 2.0 million in 2000. Between 1998 and 2000, there were significantly more new users among 12 to 17 year olds than among 18 to 25 year olds.

Methadone often takes over twenty hours to leave the body once it's been taken; because each person's body metabolized the drug differently, this could vary from person to person.

During the 1990s, heroin incidence rates rose to a level not reached since the 1970s. The annual number of new users ranged from 55,000 to 69,000 between 1989 and 1992. However, there were 110,000 new heroin users in 1994 and 146,000 in 2000. Between 1975 and 1977, there were approximately 120,000 to 140,000 new users of heroin per year.
