Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Miltona, MN.

Methadone is a prescription drug which like heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same neural receptors are triggered when a person ingests methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in programs to help opiate addicted individuals so that they don't feel they need to become involved in drug seeking behavior, won't experience intense cravings, and won't feel the symptoms of opiate withdrawal. So rather than quitting cold turkey, facilities which treat methadone clients only are licensed to prescribe methadone to these individuals daily. This type of treatment is called methadone maintenance.

Facilities which treat methadone clients only are not typically geared to offer a broad array of comprehensive treatment services beyond daily dosing, although some clinics might offer individual and group counseling. Methadone use is associated with side effects, potentials for overdose and serious drug interactions due to the fact that it is a full opioid agonist. For this reason, it is also a drug that is abused and misused by opiate addicts. Seeking supplemental treatment services in Miltona is suggested, such as counseling, therapy and psychotherapies which are successful at long term rehabilitation and preventing relapses.
