Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Clarcona, FL.

Methadone is a prescription drug which similar to heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same neural receptors are triggered when someone uses methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is used in facilities to treat opiate addicted people so that they don't feel they need to get involved in illicit drug use activities, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't feel the effects of opiate withdrawal. So alternatively to quitting cold turkey, facilities that treat methadone clients only are licensed to administer methadone to these clients on a daily basis. This method of treatment is known as methadone maintenance therapy.

Programs which treat methadone clients only are not typically set up to provide a wide range of extensive recovery services beyond daily dosing, although some clinics might offer group and individual therapy and counseling. Methadone use is associated with side effects, potentials for overdose and serious drug interactions due to the fact that it is a full opioid agonist. For this reason, it is also a drug which is abused by opioid dependent individuals. Seeking additional recovery services in Clarcona is highly recommended, including counseling, therapy and psychotherapies that are successful at long term rehabilitation and preventing relapses.
