Methadone Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Bunnell, FL.

Methadone is a regulated drug utilized for the treatment of opiate addiction. Someone who wants to quit using prescription pain killers or heroin can get started on a methadone clinic in or near Bunnell where they ingest it daily to stop withdrawal, stave off cravings and essentially replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who begin methadone treatment remain on the drug for many years, due to the fact that coming off it can bring about withdrawal symptoms far worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin. However, it's effects last much longer which is why detoxing from it can be so harsh and last for weeks. And because methadone can stay in the body for so long, users may not even start experiencing withdrawal for a day or two if they stop taking it cold turkey. Methadone withdrawal resembles that of other opiates, and are likened to a severe flu and may include chills, fever, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, extreme insomnia, etc.

Methadone detoxification can be made much more comfortable in a professional detoxification facility that allow patients withdrawing from the drug. Some centers offer a medication assisted detoxification while others help the person detox from the drug cold turkey without any medications.
