Methadone Clients Only - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Floris, IA.

Methadone is a regulated drug which like morphine or heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same nerve cell receptors are activated when someone ingests methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in programs to help opiate dependent individuals so that they don't feel they need to get involved in illicit drug use activities, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't feel the symptoms of withdrawal. So instead of quitting cold turkey, programs that treat methadone clients only are licensed to administer methadone to these clients on a daily basis. This method of treatment is called methadone maintenance therapy.

Facilities which treat methadone clients only are not typically designed to provide a broad array of extensive recovery services beyond daily dosing, although some clinics may deliver group and individual counseling. Methadone use does have side effects, potentials for overdose and drug interactions due to the fact that it is a full opioid agonist. Consequently, it is also a drug that is abused by opiate addicts. Seeking supplemental treatment services in Floris is suggested, including therapy, counseling and cognitive behavioral therapies that are effective in long term recovery and preventing relapses.
