Methadone Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Grawn, MI.

Methadone is a regulated drug utilized for the treatment of opiate addiction. Someone who wants to quit using prescription pain killers or heroin can get enrolled into a methadone program in or near Grawn where they take it daily to avoid withdrawal symptoms, avoid cravings and essentially replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who start methadone maintenance remain on it for decades, due to the fact that coming off it causes withdrawal symptoms much worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, similar to heroin and morphine. However, it's effects last much longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so harsh and last for weeks. Additionally, because methadone can remain in the body for so long, users may not even start experiencing withdrawal for a day or two if they stop taking it cold turkey. Methadone withdrawal is similar to that of other opiates, and are likened to a severe flu and may include fever, chills, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, extreme insomnia, etc.

Methadone detoxification can be made more comfortable and manageable in a detox facility that accepts methadone clients. Some programs provide a medically managed detoxification while others help the client withdrawal off the drug cold turkey without any medications.
