Experts On Overdose Of Demi Lovato Hollywoodgossip
How could it happen? What’s next?
Demi Lovato continues hospitalized after an apparent overdose and is awake. What’s next for the singer on her way to recovery?
This Tuesday, the singer, who in the past was in rehabilitation for her addiction to drugs and alcohol, was found unconscious in her home in Los Angeles. She was transported to a hospital and her family members rushed to accompany her. The singer’s publicist then said, “Demi is awake and with her family, who want to express their thanks to everyone for their love, prayers and support.”
The fact that Lovato is awake “does not say much”, but means that “now she will be fine and will be evaluated a little more closely to know the cause of why she was found unconscious, either due to something related to drugs or another thing, “said Dr. Sherry Yafai , an emergency physician who works as a research and development director at the High Sobriety recovery clinic in Los Angeles, and is the director of the Releaf Institute for pain management. She is not trying Lovato. “What they will do now is to press on what will be the best course of action,” Yafai told E! News . “Do you need to be held in the hospital for a period of time? Do not need to be held in the hospital? Can you go home? Was this a wake-up call?” This is something that should be addressed later in a situation. as rehabilitation? With all those different scenarios, what will happen is a combination of medical services, as well as social services, that will help determine why and for how long this has happened. ”
Yafai told E! News that if Lovato suffered an accidental overdose “she will have to be socially approved and she should have a conversation with her doctor about whether or not she needs to go to rehabilitation.” “She and her family, and probably her doctor, will have a discussion about what is the appropriate decision right now and whether it is safe for her to go to a rehabilitation institute, and how that will be for the next 30 to 90 days,” she said. The hospitalization of Lovato came a month after the singer premiered her song entitled Sober , where she sings about having broken her sobriety after six years. The substance or substances that caused your alleged overdose have not been made public. The first to respond on the scene treated Lovato with Narcan, an antidote to opioid overdose, before transporting her to the hospital.
“Unfortunately, these days it is more common for patients to relapse,” Yafai told E! News . “With the opioid epidemic that we have been facing for a number of years, we have seen 75% relapse after patients go to rehabilitation and reach sobriety, we have seen an alarming number of patients who have relapsed. Being that when patients relapse, they return to the same dose they used to use but now their bodies have been sober for a period of time, and it’s a lot for them, it gets too much for their bodies and that’s how we see many overdoses in the emergency department. ”
“Narcan is the technical antidote to opioid overdoses and right now, since we declare opioids an epidemic in the United States, what we are beginning to do here in California is to provide Narcan,” Yafai said. “Narcan is usually available for emergency medical services, but now we are starting to provide the police with the ability to administer it, so patients can survive.”
