Methadone is a drug utilized for the treatment of opiate addiction. An Individual who wants to quit taking heroin or prescription pain killers can get enrolled into a methadone program in or near Marne where they ingest it on a daily basis to avoid withdrawal, avoid cravings and basically substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who begin methadone maintenance remain on the drug for many years, considering withdrawing off it causes withdrawal symptoms far worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, similar to heroin. However, it remains in the body longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so harsh and last for weeks. Additionally, considering methadone can stay in the body for such a long time, users may not even start experiencing withdrawal for a day or two if they stop taking it. Methadone withdrawal is similar to that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu and can include chills, fever, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, stomach cramping, muscle and bone aches and pain, extreme insomnia, etc.
Methadone withdrawal can be made much more comfortable in a detox facility which allow methadone clients. Some facilities provide a medication assisted detoxification while others help the client get off the drug without the use of controlled medications.
