Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Ahmeek, MI.

Methadone is a medication utilized for the reduction of harm associated with opiate addiction and dependency. A person who wants to stop using heroin or prescription pain killers can get started on a methadone clinic in or near Ahmeek where they take it daily to avoid withdrawal, stave off cravings and essentially substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who start methadone treatment stay on the drug for many years, considering withdrawing off it can bring about withdrawal symptoms much greater than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin and morphine. However, it's effects last much longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so painful and last such a long time. And considering methadone can stay in the body for such a long time, users usually will not even start feeling the effects of withdrawal for a day or two when they stop taking it. Methadone withdrawal resembles that of other opiates, and are likened to a severe flu which may include fever, chills, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, acute insomnia, etc.

Methadone withdrawal can be made much more comfortable in a professional detoxification facility which accepts methadone clients. Some centers provide a medication assisted detoxification while others help the individual get off the drug cold turkey without any medications.
