Methadone Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Osseo, MI.

Methadone is a medication utilized for the reduction of harm associated with opiate dependency and addiction. Someone who wants to quit using prescription pain killers or heroin can get started on a methadone clinic in or near Osseo where they ingest it on a daily basis to stop withdrawal symptoms, avoid cravings and basically substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many people who begin methadone maintenance stay on it for decades, considering withdrawing off it can bring about withdrawal symptoms far worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin. However, it remains in the body longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so harsh and last so long. And considering methadone can remain in the body for so long, users may not even begin feeling the effects of withdrawal for a day or two if they stop taking it cold turkey. Methadone withdrawal is like that of other opiates, and are likened to a really bad flu which can include chills, fever, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating stomach cramping, muscle and bone aches and pain, extreme insomnia, etc.

Methadone detoxification can be made more comfortable and manageable in a detox facility which allow patients withdrawing from the drug. Some programs offer a medication assisted detoxification while others help the person detox from the drug without the use of controlled medications.
