Facts

Drug treatment programs should provide assessment for HIV/AIDS, hepatitis B and C, tuberculosis and other infectious diseases, and counseling to help patients modify or change behaviors that place them or others at risk of infection. Counseling can help patients avoid high-risk behavior and help people who are already infected manage their illness.
As with other opioid medications, methadone tolerance and dependence usually develop with repeated doses. Tolerance to the different physiological effects of methadone varies. Tolerance to analgesia usually occurs during the first few weeks of use; whereas with respiratory depression, sedation, and nausea it is seen within approximately 5-7 days. There is no tolerance formed to constipation produced by methadone or other opioids; however, effects may be less severe after time and can often be alleviated through increase intake of dietary fiber (fruits and vegetables, high-fiber cereals, etc.) or fiber supplements.
Is Herbal Ecstasy a safe, natural alternative? No. Although not currently classified as a controlled substance, Herbal Ecstasy is a drug composed of ephedrine (ma huang) or pseudoephedrine and caffeine (kola nut), stimulants that closely simulate the effects of Ecstasy. Sold in tablet form, Herbal Ecstasy is known as Cloud 9, Herbal Bliss, Ritual Spirit, Herbal X, GWM, Rave Energy, Ultimate Xphoria, and X. There is no quality control over the manufacture of these products, and problems arise because the amounts of ephedrine and caffeine in the pills vary widely. Over 800 reports of adverse reactions such as high blood pressure, seizures, heart attacks, strokes, and death have been reported to federal authorities. Because of these reactions, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is considering placing restrictions on the drug.
Heroin is a narcotic derived from the opium poppy plant (Papaver somniferum). Opium poppy is grown primarily by destitute farmers in what is known as the Golden Crescent in Southwest Asia (encompassing Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, and Pakistan) and the Golden Triangle in Southeast Asia (Burma, Thailand, Laos, and Vietnam). In the Americas, Columbia and Mexico are chief producers.

Facts:

There were 11 meth lab incidents in New York in 2007.
Heroin is readily available from Colombian and Dominican organizations in the New York metropolitan area.
In March 2005, the METs prioritized investigations in New York to target and dismantle methamphetamine trafficking organizations and clandestine laboratory operators. In January 2006, the MET finished a several month long investigation into the methamphetamine activity in the region, which ultimately led to the exposure of a methamphetamine lab in Jefferson County, New York. Two individuals were arrested and a second lab was discovered at a remote cabin in Northern Lewis County, New York that resulted in the seizure of 150 grams of a liquid containing methamphetamine and 21 grams of ephedrine, a precursor for the manufacture of methamphetamine. In addition to the eradication of two methamphetamine labs in the north country region, MET members and local police agencies in New York made controlled purchases of narcotics on the streets of Watertown and the surrounding area leading to more arrests and asset seizures. As a result of this investigation, seventeen individuals were arrested on state charges for trafficking narcotics and eleven federal arrests were generated. Eleven properties were searched and seizures included an automobile, a residential home valued at approximately $55,000.00, three weapons and over $16,000.00 in cash. As a result of the efforts of these dedicated agencies in New York, over 194 grams of crack cocaine, with a street value of $19,000.00 was taken off the streets of Jefferson County. In May 2006, the MET concluded a 9-month investigation into the illegal use, sale, manufacture and transportation of illegal drugs in Montgomery County, New York which resulted in 19 arrests.
New York City's large, diverse, multi-class population creates a demand that DTOs are more than happy to serve.
New York City has long been served by numerous drug trafficking organizations.
A lot of the Colombian heroin is smuggled into New York by couriers and ingesters arriving at JFK Airport, on direct flights from Colombia, or after stopovers in Central or South America, or the Caribbean.
