Methadone Clients Only - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Bethel, MO.

Methadone is a prescription medication which similar to heroin is a full opioid agonist, which means that the same neural receptors are activated when someone ingests methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is regulated and used in facilities to treat opiate dependent individuals so that they don't feel they have to get involved in drug seeking behavior, won't experience intense cravings, and won't undergo the symptoms of withdrawal. So alternatively to quitting cold turkey, facilities which treat methadone clients only are licensed to administer methadone to these individuals on a daily basis. This method of treatment is called methadone maintenance.

Facilities which treat methadone clients only are not normally geared to provide a wide range of extensive recovery services other than daily dosing, although some might provide individual and group counseling. Methadone use does have side effects, potentials for overdose and drug interactions due to the fact that it is a full opioid agonist similar to heroin. Consequently, it is also a drug that is abused by opiate addicts. Seeking further treatment services in Bethel is highly recommended, such as therapy, counseling and psychotherapies that are effective in long term rehabilitation and preventing relapses.
