Methadone is a regulated drug used in the reduction of harm associated with opiate addiction and dependency. An Individual who wants to quit taking heroin or prescription pain killers can get started on a methadone clinic in or near Upper Kalskag where they ingest it daily to avoid withdrawal, stave off cravings and basically substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who begin methadone treatment stay on it for many years, due to the fact that withdrawing off it can produce withdrawal symptoms far greater than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin. However, it's effects last much longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so harsh and last such a long time. Additionally, considering methadone can remain in the body for so long, users usually will not even start experiencing withdrawal for a day or two when they stop taking it. Methadone withdrawal is similar to that of other opiates, and are likened to a really bad flu which may include fever, chills, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, extreme insomnia, etc.
