Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Commerce, GA.

Methadone is a regulated drug used in the treatment of opiate addiction. An Individual who wants to quit taking prescription pain killers or heroin can get enrolled into a methadone clinic in or near Commerce where they take it daily to stop withdrawal, avoid cravings and basically substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who begin methadone treatment remain on the drug for many years, because coming off it can produce withdrawal symptoms much greater than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin and morphine. However, it's effects last much longer which is why detoxing from it can be so harsh and last for weeks. And since methadone can stay in the body for such a long time, users may not even begin experiencing withdrawal for a day or two if they quit taking it. Methadone withdrawal is similar to that of other opiates, and are likened to a really bad flu and may include chills, fever, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, extreme insomnia, etc.

Methadone withdrawal can be made more comfortable and manageable in a professional detoxification facility that accepts patients withdrawing from the drug. Some facilities offer a medication assisted detox while others help the person withdrawal off the drug without the use of controlled medications.
