Methadone Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Ty Ty, GA.

Methadone is a medication utilized for the treatment of opiate addiction. A person who wants to stop taking heroin or prescription pain killers can get enrolled into a methadone clinic in or near Ty Ty where they ingest it daily to stop withdrawal symptoms, stave off cravings and essentially replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who begin methadone maintenance remain on it for many years, considering withdrawing off it can produce withdrawal symptoms far worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, similar to heroin and morphine. However, it's effects last much longer which is why detoxing from it can be so painful and last so long. Additionally, 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.
