Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Lyons, KS.

Methadone is a regulated 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 clinic in or near Lyons where they ingest it daily to stop withdrawal symptoms, avoid cravings and essentially substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who begin methadone maintenance stay on it for decades, considering coming off it can produce withdrawal symptoms much worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin. However, it remains in the body longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so uncomfortable and last so long. And because methadone can remain in the body for so long, users usually will not even begin feeling the effects of withdrawal for a day or two if they quit taking it. Methadone withdrawal resembles that of other opiates, and feels similar to a severe flu and can include fever, chills, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating stomach cramping, muscle and bone aches and pain, extreme insomnia, etc.

Methadone detoxification can be made more comfortable and manageable in a detox facility which allow patients withdrawing from the drug. Some centers offer a medically managed detoxification while others help the client withdrawal off the drug without the use of controlled medications.
