Methadone Clients Only - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Chana, IL.

Methadone is a prescription drug which similar to morphine or heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same neural receptors are activated when a person takes methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in facilities to help opiate dependent clients so that they don't feel they need to get involved in illicit drug use activities, won't experience intense cravings, and won't undergo the effects of opiate withdrawal. So instead of quitting cold turkey, facilities that treat methadone clients only are licensed to dispense methadone to these clients daily. This method of treatment is called methadone maintenance therapy.

Clinics which treat methadone clients only are not usually designed to offer a broad spectrum of extensive recovery services beyond daily dosing, although some clinics may offer group and individual counseling. Methadone use does have side effects, potentials for overdose and serious drug interactions due to the fact that it is a full opioid agonist similar to heroin. For this reason, it is also a drug that is abused by opioid dependent individuals. Seeking supplemental rehabilitation services in Chana is highly recommended, including therapy, counseling and psychotherapies which are successful at long term recovery and preventing relapses.
