Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Jurupa Valley, CA.

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 uses methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in facilities to treat opiate dependent individuals so that they don't feel the need to get involved in drug seeking behavior, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't undergo the symptoms of withdrawal. So instead of quitting cold turkey, facilities that treat methadone clients only are authorized to dispense methadone to these clients daily. This type of treatment is known as methadone maintenance therapy.

Programs which treat methadone clients only are not commonly designed to provide a broad array of comprehensive recovery services beyond daily dosing, although some clinics may offer group and individual therapy and counseling. Methadone use is associated with 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 rehabilitation services in Jurupa Valley is highly recommended, such as therapy, counseling and psychotherapies that are successful at long term rehabilitation and relapse prevention.
