Methadone Drug Addiction .com

If you were going to have to pass a UA how long do you have to wait for Methadone to get out of your body? I did some research and most of the sources say 3-5 days? Seems like too short of the time. If anyone knows for sure let me know. Thankx

2-5 days is correct for someone who is casually abusing Methodone. For someone who is using Methodone as a treatment for Heroine addiction it can take significantly longer from weeks to months.

to take harder drugs such as Herionn to escape detection, many immates agree with her. Meanwhile the health service sees Methadone as the drug of ...

This is my blody and conclusion of my argumentative essay could people make it better, change sentence is ok!! make it better for me^^ thanks

One of the reasons to show support for a more efficient harm minimization is that the government and the hospitals encourage free syringe exchange. Sharing syringe (needles) can be quite risky and dangerous because while people are sharing the needles, the viruses or diseases could pass through to each other by the remaining blood that is left within the injector. HIV and AIDS are two common viral diseases that people get from sharing syringes, beside people who take drugs through injection have the higher chance to receive the diseases. However, Australia created a needle exchange program to basically giving free syringe to people who needs it, especially for drug users, to prevent them from virus transmission (Arguments for harm minimization, n.d.). Also, from the report it proves that HIV and AIDS rates have been decreasing compared to other countries of the world.

The second most significant reason that explains harm minimization is more effective is the methadone programs. Although only several people will adopt methadone programs, however, it is effectual for dependent heroin users (Arguments for harm minimization, n.d.). Beside, this program will not only minimizes the harm that the drug users have but also helps our community, such as less crime, less frighten of police detection and reduction of the dangerous associated with needle use (Arguments for harm minimization, n.d.). Therefore, Australia has established many different programs and strategies to reduce harms for the multitudes.

In addition to methadone programs, zero tolerance which raises the harm occurrence is also another supporting reason to support that harm minimization is more efficient than prohibition. While carry out zero tolerance principles, polices are performing successfully thus drugs prices increase, however this is when the criminal rates raised. Robbery, stealing and murderer can happen and the community is no longer safe. Prohibition or zero tolerance can maximize the harm to drugs users and it produces more crime, more diseases spread out such as HIV and AIDS and police resources could not be deployed (Arguments for harm minimization, n.d), therefore zero tolerance have no positive impacts to our community.

To conclude, the progress of syringe exchange programs, methadone programs and negative impacts caused by prohibition are the three ideas to prove that harm minimization strategy is more efficient than zero tolerance. In fact, the issue of whether harm minimization or zero tolerance is more effective is important, because it relates to our community and society. There are no easy solutions to solve the problem of people taking illicit drugs, however, harm minimization has been demonstrated some success. If the government spend more time on planning alternative choices for drug users, disseminate information to multitudes about the negative impacts of drugs and work more on teaching school students about the effects of using drugs, it could help the community from avoiding more unnecessary tribulations.

My comments are in square brackets. You have serious issues with verb tense agreement. You should work on the grammatical problems if you intend to go to college.
