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

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

Facilities which treat methadone clients only are not commonly geared to provide a wide range of comprehensive recovery services other than daily dosing, although some clinics may provide individual and group counseling. Methadone use does have side effects, potentials for overdose and drug interactions due to the fact that it is a full opioid agonist. Consequently, it is also a drug that is abused by opioid dependent individuals. Seeking supplemental treatment services in Termo is suggested, such as therapy, counseling and psychotherapies which are effective in long term rehabilitation and preventing relapses.
