Methadone Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Baltimore, MD.

Methadone is a regulated drug used in the treatment of opiate addiction and dependency. Someone who wants to quit using heroin or prescription pain killers can get started on a methadone program in or near Baltimore where they take it daily to stop withdrawal, stave off cravings and essentially replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who start methadone treatment remain on it for many years, considering coming off it causes withdrawal symptoms much greater than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin. However, it's effects last much longer which is why detoxing from it can be so harsh and last so long. Additionally, since methadone can remain in the body for such a long time, users usually will not even start experiencing withdrawal for a day or two when they quit taking it cold turkey. Methadone withdrawal is similar to that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu and may include fever, chills, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, acute insomnia, etc.

Methadone detoxification can be made much more comfortable in a detox facility that allow patients withdrawing from the drug. Some facilities provide a medically managed detoxification while others help the individual get off the drug without the use of controlled medications.
