MS TREATMENT FACTS

According to Harvard Medical School, “For some addicts, the beginning of treatment is detoxification –– controlled and medically supervised withdrawal from the drug.” However, this is only one part of an overall addiction treatment regimen and should not be the only option an individual seeks for recovery.
Opioid addicts have ample choices for medications when it comes to their rehab treatment. Though methadone is perhaps the most popular option, buprenorphine, a newer medication has been found to be very effective for opioid addiction treatment. Some individuals, especially those who are very dedicated to ending their opioid abuse, even prefer naltrexone.
Most opioid addicts will experience a relapse or another negative result at some point in their recoveries. When this occurs, treatment options may need to be re-explored, but the individual should never believe their recovery has failed.
Some treatment programs only last 30 days, but it is important for an individual to stay in treatment for at least 90 days, if not longer. If this is the case, the program can be followed up with aftercare.

Mississippi TREATMENT STATS

Past year heroin abuse in Mississippi was only at 0.15 percent in 2015, according to a study by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. This is lower than the national average, as stated by the National Institute on Drug Abuse.
However, according to the Mississippi State Department of Health, southern states like Mississippi “have the most prescriptions per person for opioid painkillers.”
In January 2013, there were nearly 180,000 individual prescriptions for hydrocodone and hydrocodone combination products in Mississippi alone (MDHS). This would have allowed for every man, woman and child in the state to receive over three doses of hydrocodone during that one month.
In addition, the state’s overdose death rate increased 12.3 percent to 351 in the year 2015 (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention).
