Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Hollenberg, KS.

Methadone is a prescription medication which like heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same neural receptors in the brain are activated when a person uses methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in facilities to treat opiate addicted clients so that they don't feel they have to get involved in illicit drug use activities, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't feel the effects of opiate withdrawal. So rather than quitting cold turkey, facilities which treat methadone clients only are licensed to administer methadone to these clients daily. This method of treatment is known as methadone maintenance.

Facilities which treat methadone clients only are not typically designed to offer a broad array of extensive treatment services beyond daily dosing, although some may provide group and individual therapy and counseling. Methadone use does have side effects, potentials for overdose and serious drug interactions because it is a full opioid agonist similar to heroin. Consequently, it is also a drug that is abused and misused by opiate addicts. Seeking supplemental recovery services in Hollenberg is highly recommended, such as therapy, counseling and cognitive behavioral therapies which are successful at long term recovery and relapse prevention.
