Methadone Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Bayard, IA.

Methadone is a regulated drug utilized for the treatment of opiate dependency and addiction. Someone who wants to stop using prescription pain killers or heroin can get started on a methadone clinic in or near Bayard where they take it on a daily basis to stop withdrawal, avoid cravings and essentially replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who begin methadone maintenance treatment remain on the drug for many years, due to the fact that withdrawing off it can bring about withdrawal symptoms much worse 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 the withdrawal from it can be so painful and last such a long time. And considering methadone can stay in the body for such a long time, users usually will not even begin feeling the effects of withdrawal for a day or two when they stop taking it. Methadone withdrawal resembles that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu which may include chills, fever, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating stomach cramping, muscle and bone aches and pain, acute insomnia, etc.

Methadone detoxification can be made more comfortable and manageable in a detox facility which allow methadone clients. Some centers provide a medication assisted detoxification while others help the person get off the drug cold turkey without any medications.
