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

Methadone is a regulated drug utilized for the reduction of harm associated with opiate addiction. An Individual who wants to stop taking prescription pain killers or heroin can get enrolled into a methadone program in or near Pahokee where they ingest it daily to avoid withdrawal, avoid cravings and basically substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who start methadone treatment stay on the drug for decades, considering withdrawing off it can bring about withdrawal symptoms far greater 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 uncomfortable and last so long. And because methadone can remain in the body for so long, users may not even start feeling the effects of withdrawal for a day or two when they stop taking it cold turkey. Methadone withdrawal is similar to that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu which can include chills, fever, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, acute insomnia, etc.

Methadone withdrawal can be made much more comfortable in a professional detoxification facility that accepts methadone clients. Some facilities provide a medically managed detox while others help the client detox from the drug cold turkey without any medications.
