Drug dependency to opiates has become an epidemic in the US. Teenagers, in particular, have increased use of heroine (as it has become so inexpensive) as well as prescription pain killers, in order to get high. Physical addiction to opiates can occur within daily use in one week’s time!
There is a new trend that has recently been revealed, that is both surprising, and extremely dangerous. The anti-diarrheal medication, Immodium, has an active ingredient called Loperamide. When taken in very large doses it will stimulate the same high as heroine or prescription opiates.
This replication of a heroin-like high, has teenagers buying Immodium in large quantities…abusers are taking anywhere between 50-300 pills per day! The recommended dosage for diarrhea is 2 pills, to give you a perspective of what people are putting into their bodies in order to reach the high they want.
As mothers have been discovering boxes of Immodium in their teens’s rooms, awareness about this trend has come to the fore. The video you are about to watch below discusses this extremely dangerous trend, which can not only wreak havoc on the digestive tract, but cause heart damage and even death! Increasing parental awareness about this trend, so that they can be on the lookout for this medication amongst your child’s things, is extremely important. There have already been multiple deaths reported as a result of this new drug “fad”.
