Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Nahma, MI.

Methadone is a regulated drug which similar to heroin is a full opioid agonist, meaning the same neurotransmitter receptors in the brain are triggered when a person takes methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in programs to help opiate dependent individuals so that they don't feel they have to get involved in illicit drug use activities, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't feel the effects of opiate withdrawal. So rather than quitting cold turkey, facilities which treat methadone clients only are licensed to prescribe methadone to these clients daily. This method of treatment is known as methadone maintenance.

Programs which treat methadone clients only are not commonly geared to offer a broad array of comprehensive rehabilitation services other than daily dosing, although some might deliver group and individual counseling. Methadone use does have side effects, potentials for overdose and serious drug interactions because it is a full opioid agonist. For this reason, it is also a drug which is abused by opiate addicts. Seeking further treatment services in Nahma is highly recommended, such as counseling, therapy and cognitive behavioral therapies which are successful at long term rehabilitation and relapse prevention.
