Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Le Roy, KS.

Methadone is a prescription drug which similar to heroin is a full opioid agonist, meaning the same neural receptors in the brain are triggered when someone uses methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in facilities to treat opiate dependent clients so that they don't feel the need to become involved in illicit drug use activities, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't undergo the effects of opiate withdrawal. So instead of quitting cold turkey, clinics which treat methadone clients only are authorized to prescribe methadone to these individuals on a daily basis. This method of treatment is called methadone maintenance.

Programs which treat methadone clients only are not typically geared to provide a wide range of extensive treatment services other than daily dosing, although some may provide individual and group 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 which is abused and misused by opiate addicts. Seeking further recovery services in Le Roy is suggested, including therapy, counseling and psychotherapies that are effective in long term recovery and preventing relapses.
