Dallas, Texas, is a thriving city in one of the largest states in the country but along with the hustle and bustle comes a higher risk of drug abuse and addiction, a problem that plagues every metropolitan area in the world. In a recent survey, almost 7 percent of the Dallas population over the age of 12 reported using an illicit drug in the past month and more than 9 percent said they were addicted to their drug of choice. Of these, another 3 percent say they need treatment but can't find the help they need.

Those who are addicted to opioid-based drugs like heroin and prescription painkillers need search no further for the help they need to break that addiction as quickly and healthfully as possible. Meditox has a center in Dallas where Texans can come for a single appointment and create an outpatient treatment that can free them from the grip of opiate addiction in as few as six weeks.

The Need for Outpatient Addiction Treatment in Dallas and Texas

In a state with more than 22.8 million residents, about 1.2 million of them reside in Dallas alone, which is why Meditox has a center located here. Unfortunately, we're not the only ones who realize the value of Dallas' central location: the Dallas-Fort Worth area is a primary drug trafficking and transshipment center for drugs coming out of Mexico, Columbia and the Dominican Republic. From here, drugs as diverse as heroin, cocaine and marijuana are turned into smaller packages and sent throughout the country.

Quite a bit of Mexico's black tar heroin stays right in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, unfortunately, and eventually  seeps into the rest of north Texas. Quantity and ease of access are not the only problems: the purity of heroin seized on the street has been dropping consistently from 67 percent on average to 15 percent. The varying quality puts those who regularly use the drug at high risk of overdose.

Prescription drugs, on the other hand, are commonly acquired in Dallas by "doctor shopping" and prescription fraud. The painkillers most often abused in the area include hydrocodone, codeine and, number one the on the list, OxyContin. In San Antonio, Lortab, Vicodin, morphine and Dilaudid are often abused as well. Pharmacy theft, employee theft and forged prescriptions are the most popular ways to procure prescription drugs throughout Texas.

Whether or not you live in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, the Meditox center at Dallas is available to help you break your addiction to opiate prescription painkillers. The nonmedical use of prescription medication, including psychotherapeutic drugs and opiate-based medications, has steadily continued to climb in those over the age of 12 in Dallas, across Texas and throughout the country. The use of OxyContin specifically has skyrocketed since the turn of the century. Heroin, too, has experienced a steady rise in use among teenagers and adults.
