Methadone is a medication utilized for the treatment of opiate addiction and dependency. An Individual who wants to quit taking heroin or prescription pain killers can get started on a methadone program in or near Taylor where they take it on a daily basis to avoid withdrawal symptoms, stave off cravings and in essence substitute their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who start methadone treatment stay on it for many years, due to the fact that withdrawing off it can produce withdrawal symptoms far greater 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 such a long time. Additionally, since methadone can stay in the body for so long, users usually will not even start experiencing withdrawal for a day or two if they quit taking it cold turkey. Methadone withdrawal is like that of other opiates, and feels similar to a severe flu which can include fever, chills, nausea and vomiting, profuse sweating stomach cramping, muscle and bone aches and pain, acute insomnia, etc.
Methadone detoxification can be made more comfortable and manageable in a detox facility that accepts methadone clients. Some facilities offer a medication assisted detoxification while others help the client get off the drug cold turkey without any medications.
