Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Bradenton, FL.

Methadone is a prescription medication used in the treatment of opiate addiction. Someone who wants to stop using heroin or prescription pain killers can get enrolled into a methadone clinic in or near Bradenton where they take it daily to stop withdrawal symptoms, avoid cravings and in essence replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who start methadone maintenance remain on it for decades, because withdrawing off it can bring about withdrawal symptoms much greater than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin. However, it remains in the body longer which is why detoxing from it can be so uncomfortable and last so long. And because methadone can remain in the body for so long, users may not even begin 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 may 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 detox while others help the person get off the drug cold turkey without any medications.
