Misusing or abusing more than one drug at a time is known as polydrug abuse. This increases the effects of any individual drug and makes them more dangerous. It also can cause new, and more euphoric highs. For instance, alcohol can strengthen the effects of Painkillers like Percocet, but taking these drugs together makes it more likely that the user will stop breathing.
According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) [2], in 2017, 70,237 persons in the United States died from drug overdoses, of which, 61,311 persons died from unintentional drug overdoses. In the same year, 17,029 persons died from drug overdoses involving prescription opioids like Percocet, in which 14,502 persons died from unintentional drug overdoses involving prescription opioids such as Percocet.
People often don’t realize or understand the risks of combining substances. Unfortunately, even unintentional prescription drug combinations can be lethal.
The Dangers Of Combining Drugs – Molly Percocet
The risks of polydrug abuse depend on the amounts and type of drugs mixed. Mixing drugs or substances increases pleasurable and negative effects. Combining Stimulants, such as Cocaine and Molly, can intensify the user’s high, but also their risk of a heart attack.
The greatest risk of polydrug abuse is “combined drug intoxication.” Combined drug intoxication is a common cause of emergency room visits and has claimed the lives of countless people. Therefore, the greatest risk of combined drug intoxication is death.
Molly Percocet Abuse and Addiction
Percocet is a strong narcotic pain medication, usually prescribed for intense, short-term pain after surgery or trauma. This prescription medication is often seen as a safer way to get high because it is legal to purchase (it is available with a prescription). A number of studies have indicated that Molly is addictive, though to a lesser extent than many other drugs. However, that does not mean that a Molly addiction that has developed is not a serious problem.
