Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Durant, FL.

Methadone is a prescription medication which similar to heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same nerve cell receptors are activated when a person ingests methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in facilities to treat opiate addicted individuals so that they don't feel they have to become involved in drug seeking behavior, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't undergo the effects of opiate withdrawal. So alternatively to quitting cold turkey, facilities which treat methadone clients only are authorized to administer methadone to these clients on a daily basis. This type of treatment is known as methadone maintenance.

Clinics which treat methadone clients only are not normally designed to provide a broad array of comprehensive recovery services other than daily dosing, although some might offer individual and group therapy and counseling. Methadone use does have side effects, potentials for overdose and serious drug interactions due to the fact that it is a full opioid agonist similar to heroin. For this reason, it is also a drug which is abused and misused by opiate addicts. Seeking further rehabilitation services in Durant is suggested, such as therapy, counseling and cognitive behavioral therapies that are successful at long term rehabilitation and preventing relapses.
