Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Henryville, IN.

Methadone is a regulated drug which like morphine or heroin is a full opioid agonist, meaning the same nerve cell receptors in the brain are triggered when a person ingests methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is used in facilities to treat opiate dependent individuals so that they don't feel the need to get involved in illicit drug use activities, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't feel the symptoms of withdrawal. So alternatively to quitting cold turkey, facilities that treat methadone clients only are licensed to dispense methadone to these clients daily. This type of treatment is known as methadone maintenance.

Facilities which treat methadone clients only are not normally geared to provide a wide range of extensive treatment services other than daily dosing, although some clinics might deliver group and individual therapy and counseling. Methadone use does have side effects, potentials for overdose and drug interactions because it is a full opioid agonist. For this reason, it is also a drug that is abused by opiate addicts. Seeking additional recovery services in Henryville is highly recommended, including counseling, therapy and psychotherapies that are successful at long term rehabilitation and preventing relapses.
