Methadone is a drug utilized for the reduction of harm associated with opiate dependency and addiction. An Individual who wants to stop abusing heroin or prescription pain killers can get started on a methadone program in or near Grenola where they ingest it daily to avoid withdrawal, stave off cravings and basically replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who start methadone maintenance remain on the drug for many years, because withdrawing off it can bring about withdrawal symptoms far greater than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin. However, it remains in the body longer which is why detoxing from it can be so harsh and last so long. And considering methadone can stay in the body for such a long time, users usually will not even start experiencing withdrawal for a day or two when they stop taking it. Methadone withdrawal is like that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu which can include fever, chills, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, acute insomnia, etc.
Methadone detoxification can be made more comfortable and manageable in a detox facility that accepts patients withdrawing from the drug. Some programs offer a medication assisted detoxification while others help the client get off the drug without the use of controlled medications.
