Methadone is a regulated drug used in the reduction of harm associated with opiate addiction and dependency. A person who wants to quit using heroin or prescription pain killers can get enrolled into a methadone program in or near Vallejo where they ingest it on a daily basis to stop withdrawal, stave off cravings and basically replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who begin methadone maintenance treatment stay on it for many years, considering withdrawing off it can bring about withdrawal symptoms much worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, similar to heroin. However, it remains in the body longer which is why detoxing from it can be so harsh and last so long. Additionally, since methadone can stay in the body for such a long time, users usually will not even start experiencing withdrawal for a day or two if they quit taking it. Methadone withdrawal resembles that of other opiates, and are likened to a really bad flu and can include chills, fever, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, extreme insomnia, etc.
Methadone withdrawal can be made much more comfortable in a professional detoxification facility that allow methadone clients. Some facilities offer a medically managed detoxification while others help the client detox from the drug without the use of controlled medications.
