Methadone Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Goodland, MN.

Methadone is a drug utilized for the reduction of harm associated with opiate addiction. An Individual who wants to quit taking heroin or prescription pain killers can get enrolled into a methadone program in or near Goodland 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 remain on the drug for many years, due to the fact that coming off it can bring about withdrawal symptoms far worse than even heroin withdrawal. Methadone is a full opioid agonist, similar to heroin. However, it's effects last much longer which is why detoxing from it can be so uncomfortable and last so long. Additionally, considering methadone can stay in the body for such a long time, users usually will not even begin experiencing withdrawal for a day or two when they quit taking it. Methadone withdrawal resembles that of other opiates, and feels similar to a really bad flu and can include fever, chills, profuse sweating, nausea and vomiting, muscle and bone aches and pain, stomach cramping, acute insomnia, etc.
