💜 M**H OVERDOSE AWARENESS 💜�Know the signs. Act fast. Save a life.
M**h overdose—often called “overamping”—is a medical emergency. It can happen from using too much m**h, using repeatedly without sleep or hydration, or using m**h that is mixed with other substances like fentanyl.
The numbers are serious:
• In 2023, 2.6 million Americans age 12 and older reported using m**hamphetamine in the past year.
• In 2023, nearly 35,000 overdose deaths involved psychostimulants with abuse potential—a category that is mostly m**hamphetamine.
• The overdose death rate involving these psychostimulants rose from 3.9 per 100,000 in 2018 to 10.4 per 100,000 in 2023.
• In 2023, nearly 60,000 overdose deaths involved co***ne and/or psychostimulants, accounting for about 57% of all 105,007 U.S. overdose deaths that year.
🚨 Signs of m**h overdose / overamping can include:
• chest pain
• racing heart
• increased heart rate
• high blood pressure
• sweating
• dry mouth
• restlessness
• severe agitation
• paranoia
• trouble breathing
• very high body temperature / overheating
• large, wide pupils
• seizures
• severe stomach pain
• irregular heartbeat or stopped heartbeat
• stroke symptoms
• heart attack
• kidney damage or kidney failure
• coma, passing out, or unresponsiveness
⚠️ What to do right away:
1 Call 911 immediately.
2 Move the person to a safer place and try to cool them down if they are overheating.
3 If opioid involvement is possible, give naloxone/Narcan. Naloxone reverses opioid overdose, and CDC notes that drugs like m**hamphetamine are sometimes mixed with fentanyl.
4 Stay with the person until help arrives. If they are unconscious or vomiting, turn them on their side. If they have a seizure, protect their head and do not put anything in their mouth.
Recovery is possible. Help is available. You are not alone.�📞 Call or text 988�📞 SAMHSA National Helpline: 1-800-662-HELP (4357)
