Methadone Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Browns Valley, MN.

Methadone is a medication utilized for the reduction of harm associated with opiate addiction. Someone who wants to stop abusing prescription pain killers or heroin can get started on a methadone clinic in or near Browns Valley where they ingest it on a daily basis to avoid withdrawal symptoms, stave off cravings and in essence replace their addiction with a legal medication. Many individuals who start methadone maintenance stay on the drug for many years, because withdrawing off it can produce withdrawal symptoms much worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, just like heroin and morphine. However, it's effects last much longer which is why the withdrawal from it can be so painful and last for weeks. Additionally, considering methadone can remain in the body for so long, users usually will not even begin feeling the effects of withdrawal for a day or two when they stop taking it. Methadone withdrawal is similar to that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu which may include chills, fever, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, stomach cramping, muscle and bone aches and pain, extreme insomnia, etc.

Methadone detoxification can be made much more comfortable in a professional detoxification facility that allow methadone clients. Some facilities provide a medically managed detoxification while others help the client get off the drug without the use of controlled medications.
