Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Brooklyn, MD.

Methadone is a drug utilized for the reduction of harm associated with opiate dependency and addiction. A person who wants to stop taking heroin or prescription pain killers can get started on a methadone program in or near Brooklyn where they ingest it on a daily basis to stop withdrawal symptoms, stave off cravings and basically replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who start methadone treatment remain on it for decades, due to the fact that withdrawing off it can bring about 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 detoxing from it can be so uncomfortable and last so long. And considering methadone can stay in the body for such a long time, users may 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 can include fever, chills, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, extreme insomnia, etc.

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