Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Paris Crossing, IN.

Methadone is a regulated drug which similar to morphine or heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same nerve cell receptors are triggered when someone ingests methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is used in programs to help opiate addicted people so that they don't feel they have to become involved in illicit drug use activities, won't experience intense cravings, and won't feel the symptoms of withdrawal. So alternatively to quitting cold turkey, facilities that treat methadone clients only are licensed to prescribe methadone to these clients on a daily basis. This type of treatment is known as methadone maintenance.

Facilities which treat methadone clients only are not normally geared to offer a broad array of comprehensive rehabilitation services beyond daily dosing, although some may deliver group and individual counseling. Methadone use is associated with side effects, potentials for overdose and drug interactions because it is a full opioid agonist similar to heroin. For this reason, it is also a drug which is abused and misused by opioid dependent individuals. Seeking further recovery services in Paris Crossing is suggested, such as therapy, counseling and psychotherapies that are successful at long term rehabilitation and relapse prevention.
