Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Hanover, MI.

Methadone is a drug used in the treatment of opiate dependency and addiction. A person who wants to stop abusing prescription pain killers or heroin can get enrolled into a methadone clinic in or near Hanover where they ingest it on a daily basis to stop withdrawal, stave off cravings and basically substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who begin methadone maintenance stay on it for decades, due to the fact that coming off it can produce withdrawal symptoms much worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, similar to heroin. However, it remains in the body longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so painful and last such a long time. And considering 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 feels similar to a really bad flu which may include fever, chills, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, extreme insomnia, etc.

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