Methadone is a regulated drug utilized for the reduction of harm associated with opiate dependency and addiction. An Individual who wants to quit abusing heroin or prescription pain killers can get started on a methadone program in or near Sun Valley where they take it on a daily basis to stop withdrawal, stave off cravings and basically substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who begin methadone maintenance treatment remain on it for many years, due to the fact that coming off it can produce withdrawal symptoms far greater than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin and morphine. However, it's effects last much longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so painful and last so long. And because methadone can stay in the body for such a long time, users usually will not even start feeling the effects of withdrawal for a day or two if they quit taking it cold turkey. Methadone withdrawal is similar to that of other opiates, and are likened to a really bad flu which can include chills, fever, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating stomach cramping, muscle and bone aches and pain, acute insomnia, etc.
Methadone withdrawal can be made more comfortable and manageable in a professional detoxification facility which accepts methadone clients. Some centers provide a medically managed detox while others help the individual withdrawal off the drug cold turkey without any medications.
