Methadone Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Uniontown, MO.

Methadone is a prescription drug which similar to heroin is a full opioid agonist, meaning the same neural receptors in the brain are triggered when a person ingests methadone. But unlike heroin, methadone is used in facilities to treat opiate addicted people so that they don't feel they need to get involved in drug seeking behavior, won't crave illicit opiates, and won't feel the symptoms of opiate withdrawal. So alternatively to quitting cold turkey, clinics which treat methadone clients only are authorized to administer methadone to these clients daily. This method of treatment is known as methadone maintenance.

Clinics which treat methadone clients only are not commonly set up to offer a broad array of extensive recovery services beyond daily dosing, although some clinics might provide group and individual counseling. Methadone use is associated with side effects, potentials for overdose and drug interactions due to the fact that it is a full opioid agonist similar to heroin. For this reason, it is also a drug that is abused and misused by opiate addicts. Seeking additional rehabilitation services in Uniontown is highly recommended, such as therapy, counseling and psychotherapies which are effective in long term recovery and relapse prevention.
