What % of Babies Born to Meth Addicted Mothers Are Born Healthy?
Question by Colorado: What % of babies born to meth addicted mothers are born healthy?
Best answer:
Answer by Miss Demanda
I don’t think there is any real way to know this. If a baby is born healthy, it’s unlikely the doctors would record anything about the mother’s addiction, if they even knew about it.
But the chances are high that the baby will have some type of birth defect- major or small. The effects it has on the babies is quite to crack cocaine. The environment the child is raised in after birth can also have a huge impact on the birth defect.

Best answer:
Answer by vv
It’s hard to put a figure on this.
I should think that about 90% of prescriptions are filled when originally written and that (absent a financial problem) about 75% of those religiously follow directions as written and take all their medications.
There is an outfit on the West Coast that keeps these stats; IMS.

What Drugs Can Drug Dogs Detect, and Can They Sniff Out Perscription Pills?
Question by we take to the breeze…: What drugs can drug dogs detect, and can they sniff out perscription pills?
Best answer:
Answer by jim bo
. I think there are too many legal drugs. Looking at the web sites below, it looks like a dog has to be trained to just sniff out a few illegal drugs. There aren’t enough dogs and trainers to go after perscription stuff.
“…Our drug detector dogs are trained to find drugs like marijuana, cocaine, heroin, and methamphetamines (meth). Today a fully trained drug dog goes for almost $ 6,000, and bomb-detectors sell for over $ 9,000.”
“…They run through houses and slink through cars, sniffing out the five drugs they’re trained to find: meth, marijuana, cocaine, crack and heroin.” … “Once Flyer’s instinct was honed by training, he could track and find hashish, cocaine, crack cocaine, Ecstasy, heroin, certain prescription drugs, as well as money tainted with drug residue. ” .
