Who oversees treatment
Under RSA 172, the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services establishes and coordinates the state's system of substance use disorder treatment services and sets rules on facility and counselor certification.
Overdose Good Samaritan law
RSA 318-B:28-b gives immunity from arrest, prosecution and conviction for drug possession to a person who in good faith seeks medical help for an overdose, and to the person overdosing, when the evidence came from that request.
Court-ordered treatment
New Hampshire has no civil commitment law specific to substance use found in RSA 172 or 172-B, but under RSA 172:13 a court can order treatment at a certified facility for a dependent person in a criminal case, and officers may take intoxicated people into protective custody.

Stimulant detoxWhat to know about prescription stimulants
Vyvanse, Ritalin and Concerta are sometimes seen as safer than Adderall, but all prescription stimulants carry a risk of misuse and addiction. Snorting or injecting pills, or taking far more than prescribed, raises the danger.
Stopping after heavy use brings a withdrawal period of fatigue, increased sleep, appetite changes and low mood. Our stimulant withdrawal guide explains what to expect.
What stimulant detox involves
The first week off stimulants is usually the hardest, with fatigue, hunger, poor concentration and low mood, followed by weeks of cravings that come and go. Detox programs keep you safe and comfortable and plan what comes next.

Insurance and cost
Federal parity rules generally require health plans that cover substance use treatment to cover it on terms comparable to other medical care. Your actual cost depends on your plan, deductible and the program's network status, so verify benefits first. Our insurance guides explain how major carriers handle prescription drug rehab.
