Methadone Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Jamestown, MI.

Methadone is a medication utilized for the treatment of opiate dependency and addiction. An Individual who wants to stop using heroin or prescription pain killers can get enrolled into a methadone program in or near Jamestown where they ingest 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, because coming off it can bring about withdrawal symptoms far worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin and morphine. However, it remains in the body longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so uncomfortable and last such a long time. And because methadone can stay in the body for so long, users may not even start experiencing withdrawal for a day or two if they quit taking it. Methadone withdrawal is similar to that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu which can include fever, chills, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating 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 provide a medically managed detox while others help the individual detox from the drug without the use of controlled medications.
